---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation
- JSON is a lightweight data-interchange format
- JSON is "self-describing" and easy to understand
- JSON is language independent *
*JSON uses JavaScript syntax, but the JSON format is text only.
Text can be read and used as a data format by any programming
language.
The JSON syntax is a subset of the JavaScript syntax.
JSON Syntax Rules
JSON syntax is derived from JavaScript object notation syntax:
- Data is in name/value pairs
- Data is separated by commas
- Curly braces hold objects
- Square brackets hold arrays
A name/value pair consists of a field name (in double quotes), followed by a colon, followed by a value:
Example
"name":"John"
JSON - Evaluates to JavaScript Objects
The JSON format is almost identical to JavaScript objects.
In JSON, keys must be strings, written with double quotes:
JSON
{ "name":"John" }
In JavaScript, keys can be strings, numbers, or identifier names:
JavaScript
{ name:"John" }
JSON Uses JavaScript Syntax
Because JSON syntax is derived from JavaScript object notation, very little extra software is needed to work with JSON within JavaScript.
With JavaScript you can
create an object and assign data to it, like this: var person = { "name":"John", "age":31, "city":"New York" };
modifiedt, like this: myObj["name"] = "Gilbert"; or myObj.name = "Gilbert";
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <p>Modify a JavaScript object using the bracket notation:</p> <p id="demo"></p> <script> var myObj, x; x = {age:31} myObj = { "name":"John", "age":30, "city":"New York" }; myObj["name"] = "Gilbert"; myObj.age = x.age; myObj.city = "LA"; document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = myObj.name+" age "+myObj.age+" from "+myObj.city; </script> </body> </html>
-----------------------------------------------
JavaScript has a built in function to convert a string, written in JSON format, into native JavaScript objects:
JSON.parse()
https://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=tryjson_store
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <h2>Store and retrieve data from local storage.</h2> <p id="demo"></p> <script> var myObj, myJSON, text, obj; //Storing data: myObj = { "name":"John", "age":31, "city":"New York" }; myJSON = JSON.stringify(myObj); localStorage.setItem("testJSON", myJSON); //Retrieving data: text = localStorage.getItem("testJSON"); obj = JSON.parse(text); document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = obj.name; </script> </body> </html>
====================================================================================================================================
JavaScript Arrays as JSON
The same way JavaScript objects can be used as JSON, JavaScript arrays can also be used as JSON.
JSON Files
- The file type for JSON files is ".json"
- The MIME type for JSON text is "application/json"
Using JSON
- Fetch a JSON string
- JSON.Parse the JSON string
===JSON Data Types ===================================================
Valid Data Types
In JSON, values must be one of the following data types:
- a string
- a number
- an object (JSON object)
- an array
- a boolean
- null
JSON values cannot be one of the following data types:
- a function
- a date
- undefined
JSON Strings
Strings in JSON must be written in double quotes.
Example
{ "name":"John" }
JSON Numbers
Numbers in JSON must be an integer or a floating point.
Example
{ "age":30 }
JSON Objects
Values in JSON can be objects.
Example
{
"employee":{
"name":"John", "age":30, "city":"New York" }
}
Objects as values in JSON must follow the same rules as JSON objects.
===JSON Objects=======================================================================================
Object Syntax
Example
{ "name":"John", "age":30, "car":null }
JSON objects are surrounded by curly braces {}.
JSON objects are written in key/value pairs.
Keys must be strings, and values must be a valid JSON data type (string, number, object, array, boolean or null).
Keys and values are separated by a colon.
Each key/value pair is separated by a comma.
Accessing Object Values
You can access the object values by using dot (.) notation:
Example
myObj = { "name":"John", "age":30, "car":null };
x = myObj.name;
You can also access the object values by using bracket ([]) notation:
Example
myObj =
{
"name":"John", "age":30, "car":null };
x = myObj["name"];
Looping an Object
You can loop through object properties by using the for-in loop:
Example
myObj =
{
"name":"John", "age":30, "car":null };
for (x in myObj) {
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML
+= x+"<br>";;
}
In a for-in loop, use the bracket notation to access the property values:
Example
myObj =
{
"name":"John", "age":30, "car":null };
for (x in myObj) {
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML
+= myObj[x]+"<br>";;
}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<p>How to loop through all properties in a JSON object.</p>
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
var myObj = { "name":"John", "age":30, "car":null };
for (x in myObj) {
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML += x + "<br>";
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
Nested JSON Objects
Values in a JSON object can be another JSON object.
Example
myObj =
{
"name":"John",
"age":30,
"cars": {
"car1":"Ford",
"car2":"BMW",
"car3":"Fiat"
}
}
You can access nested JSON objects by using the dot notation or bracket notation:
Example
x = myObj.cars.car2;
//or:
x = myObj.cars["car2"];
Modify Values
You can use the dot notation to modify any value in a JSON object:
Example
myObj.cars.car2 = "Mercedes";
You can also use the bracket notation to modify a value in a JSON object:
Example
myObj.cars["car2"] = "Mercedes";
Delete Object Properties
Use the delete keyword to delete properties from a JSON object:
Example
delete myObj.cars.car2;
===JSON Arrays====================================================
Arrays as JSON Objects
Example
[ "Ford", "BMW", "Fiat" ]
Arrays in JSON are almost the same as arrays in JavaScript.
In JSON, array values must be of type string, number, object, array, boolean or null.
In JavaScript, array values can be all of the above, plus any other valid JavaScript expression, including functions, dates, and undefined.
Arrays in JSON Objects
Arrays can be values of an object property:
Example
{
"name":"John",
"age":30,
"cars":[
"Ford", "BMW", "Fiat" ]
}
Accessing Array Values
You access the array values by using the index number:
Example
x = myObj.cars[0];
Looping Through an Array
You can access array values by using a for-in loop:
Example
for (i in myObj.cars) {
x
+= myObj.cars[i];
}
Or you can use a for loop:
Example
for (i
= 0; i < myObj.cars.length; i++) {
x
+= myObj.cars[i];
}
Nested Arrays in JSON Objects
Values in an array can also be another array, or even another JSON object:
Example
myObj =
{
"name":"John",
"age":30,
"cars": [
{ "name":"Ford",
"models":[ "Fiesta", "Focus", "Mustang" ] },
{ "name":"BMW", "models":[ "320", "X3", "X5" ] },
{ "name":"Fiat", "models":[ "500", "Panda" ] }
]
}
To access arrays inside arrays, use a for-in loop for each array:
Example
for (i in myObj.cars) {
x += "<h1>" + myObj.cars[i].name
+ "</h1>";
for (j in myObj.cars[i].models) {
x += myObj.cars[i].models[j];
}
}
Modify Array Values
Use the index number to modify an array:
Example
myObj.cars[1] = "Mercedes";
Delete Array Items
Use the delete keyword to delete items from an array:
Example
delete myObj.cars[1];
===JSON.parse()=============================================================
A common use of JSON is to exchange data to/from a web server.
When receiving data from a web server, the data is always a string.
Parse the data with JSON.parse(), and the data becomes a JavaScript object.
Example - Parsing JSON
Imagine we received this text from a web server:
'{ "name":"John", "age":30, "city":"New York"}'
Use the JavaScript function JSON.parse() to convert text into a JavaScript object:
var obj = JSON.parse('{ "name":"John", "age":30, "city":"New York"}');
Make sure the text is written in JSON format, or else you will get a syntax error.
Use the JavaScript object in your page:
Example
<p id="demo"></p>
<script>
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = obj.name + ", " + obj.age;
</script>
JSON From the Server
You can request JSON from the server by using an AJAX request
As long as the response from the server is written in JSON format, you can
parse the string into a JavaScript object.
Example
Use the XMLHttpRequest to get data from the server:
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
myObj =
JSON.parse(this.responseText);
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML
= myObj.name;
}
};
xmlhttp.open("GET", "json_demo.txt", true);
xmlhttp.send();
Take a look at json_demo.txt
Array as JSON
When using the JSON.parse() on a JSON derived from an array, the method will
return a JavaScript array, instead of a JavaScript object.
Example
The JSON returned from the server is an array:
var xmlhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlhttp.onreadystatechange = function()
{
if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200) {
myArr =
JSON.parse(this.responseText);
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML
= myArr[0];
}
};
xmlhttp.open("GET", "json_demo_array.txt", true);
xmlhttp.send();
Take a look at json_demo_array.txt
Exceptions
Parsing Dates
Date objects are not allowed in JSON.
If you need to include a date, write it as a string.
You can convert it back into a date object later:
Example
Convert a string into a date:
var text =
'{ "name":"John", "birth":"1986-12-14", "city":"New York"}';
var obj = JSON.parse(text);
obj.birth = new Date(obj.birth);
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = obj.name + ", " + obj.birth;
Or, you can use the second parameter, of the JSON.parse() function, called reviver.
The reviver parameter is a function that checks each property,
before returning the value.
Example
Convert a string into a date, using the reviver function:
var text =
'{ "name":"John", "birth":"1986-12-14", "city":"New York"}';
var obj = JSON.parse(text, function (key, value) {
if
(key == "birth") {
return new
Date(value);
} else {
return value;
}});
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = obj.name + ", " + obj.birth;
Parsing Functions
Functions are not allowed in JSON.
If you need to include a function, write it as a string.
You can convert it back into a function later:
Example
Convert a string into a function:
var text =
'{ "name":"John", "age":"function () {return
30;}", "city":"New York"}';
var obj = JSON.parse(text);
obj.age = eval("(" + obj.age + ")");
document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = obj.name + ", " +
obj.age();
You should avoid using functions in JSON, the functions will lose their scope,
and you would have to use eval() to convert them back into functions.
