Return JSON string in a normal way-CodePudding

From one method I'm getting string like that one:

"{\n  \"Name\": \"Next steps for pathway activities\",\n  \"Options\": [\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Show next steps\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"PathSelector\",\n      \"Key\": \"otoscopy\",\n      \"Group\": \"pathway-activities\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Treatment cannot continue\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"Navigation\",\n      \"Key\": \"treatment\",\n      \"Group\": \"pathway-activities\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Refer to GP\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"PathSelector\",\n      \"Key\": \"refer_to_gp\",\n      \"Group\": \"treatment\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"New Wax appointment\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"PathSelector\",\n      \"Key\": \"new_wax_appointment_otoscopy\",\n      \"Group\": \"treatment\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Continue treatment\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"Navigation\",\n      \"Key\": \"pathway-activities\",\n      \"Group\": \"treatment\"\n    }\n  ]\n}"

How can I parse it to a normal format? (P.S. It is not required to be as a string as a result, it also can be some dynamic object)

CodePudding user response：

Like this you will get an object

let myStr = "{\n "Name": "Next steps for pathway activities",\n "Options": [\n {\n "Name": "Show next steps",\n "ActionType": "PathSelector",\n "Key": "otoscopy",\n "Group": "pathway-activities"\n },\n {\n "Name": "Treatment cannot continue",\n "ActionType": "Navigation",\n "Key": "treatment",\n "Group": "pathway-activities"\n },\n {\n "Name": "Refer to GP",\n "ActionType": "PathSelector",\n "Key": "refer_to_gp",\n "Group": "treatment"\n },\n {\n "Name": "New Wax appointment",\n "ActionType": "PathSelector",\n "Key": "new_wax_appointment_otoscopy",\n "Group": "treatment"\n },\n {\n "Name": "Continue treatment",\n "ActionType": "Navigation",\n "Key": "pathway-activities",\n "Group": "treatment"\n }\n ]\n}";

let myObj = JSON.parse(myStr);

console.log(myObj);

The output will be:

    "Name": "Next steps for pathway activities",
    "Options": [
        {
            "Name": "Show next steps",
            "ActionType": "PathSelector",
            "Key": "otoscopy",
            "Group": "pathway-activities"
        },
        {
            "Name": "Treatment cannot continue",
            "ActionType": "Navigation",
            "Key": "treatment",
            "Group": "pathway-activities"
        },
        {
            "Name": "Refer to GP",
            "ActionType": "PathSelector",
            "Key": "refer_to_gp",
            "Group": "treatment"
        },
        {
            "Name": "New Wax appointment",
            "ActionType": "PathSelector",
            "Key": "new_wax_appointment_otoscopy",
            "Group": "treatment"
        },
        {
            "Name": "Continue treatment",
            "ActionType": "Navigation",
            "Key": "pathway-activities",
            "Group": "treatment"
        }
    ]
}```

CodePudding user response：

If you want to have an object and perform operations on this object in the future you can use Newtonsoft.Json NuGet package.

Just create classes that reflects your json like this:

class MyObject
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public IEnumerable<Option> Options { get; set; }

}

class Option
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string ActionType { get; set; }
    public string Key { get; set; }
    public string Group { get; set; }
}

And try deserialize this json:

var obj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyObject>(jsonStr);

CodePudding user response：

You can do like this take you json string

var myStr = "{\n  \"Name\": \"Next steps for pathway activities\",\n  \"Options\": [\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Show next steps\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"PathSelector\",\n      \"Key\": \"otoscopy\",\n      \"Group\": \"pathway-activities\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Treatment cannot continue\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"Navigation\",\n      \"Key\": \"treatment\",\n      \"Group\": \"pathway-activities\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Refer to GP\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"PathSelector\",\n      \"Key\": \"refer_to_gp\",\n      \"Group\": \"treatment\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"New Wax appointment\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"PathSelector\",\n      \"Key\": \"new_wax_appointment_otoscopy\",\n      \"Group\": \"treatment\"\n    },\n    {\n      \"Name\": \"Continue treatment\",\n      \"ActionType\": \"Navigation\",\n      \"Key\": \"pathway-activities\",\n      \"Group\": \"treatment\"\n    }\n  ]\n}";

var _obj = JSON.parse(myStr);

console.log(_obj);
