I have a JSON that I'd like to nest into another JSON. Is this possible? Problem I'm facing is when I add Json #2 to #1 is gives me a formatting error.
JSON #1:
{"home":"This a sentence about home", "json":"<ADD JSON HERE>"}
JSON #2:
{
"homepage": {
"heading": [
{"h1":"Sentence for H1!"},
{"description":"Description about us"},
{"button1":"Learn More"},
],
}
What I've tried:
{"home":"This a sentence about home", "json":" { "homepage": {"heading": [ {"h1":"Sentence for H1!"},{"description":"Description about us"},{"button1":"Learn More"},],}"}
CodePudding user response:
(If you are using JavaScript)
If you pass JSON to JSON.stringify it will escape your JSON.
You can then insert the escaped JSON in to your original JSON.
So:
const jsonToInsert = {
"homepage": {
"heading": [
{"h1":"Sentence for H1!"},
{"description":"Description about us"},
{"button1":"Learn More"}
]
}
};
const stringifiedJson = JSON.stringify(jsonToInsert);
const completeJson = {"home":"This a sentence about home", "json": stringifiedJson}
Should work - sorry if there’s typos, replying on my phone.
CodePudding user response:
The second JSON isn't valid (extra commas and missing }
), but this is:
{
"homepage": {
"heading": [
{"h1":"Sentence for H1!"},
{"description":"Description about us"},
{"button1":"Learn More"}
]
}
}
This is how to embed it as a string:
{
"home": "This a sentence about home",
"json": "{\"homepage\": {\"heading\": [{\"h1\": \"Sentence for H1!\"}, {\"description\": \"Description about us\"}, {\"button1\": \"Learn More\"}]}}"
}
