Return Type

String

Examples

Structs

Both examples show how JSON data can be parsed into an array or struct collections. Both examples use the following struct definitions:

Code Block
languagejs
struct code {
    number [] rgba;
    string hex;
}
struct color {
    string color;
    string category;
    string type;
    code code;
}
struct colors {
    color [] colors;}

Example 1 - Reading JSON from a file

Code Block
languagejs
string json = readFromTextFile("C:\\colors.json");

colors [] cData;
cData = fromJson(json);
return cData.colors[0].color;

Example 2 - Reading JSON from a variable

Code Block
languagejs
string json = "{\"colors\":[{\"color\":\"red\",\"category\":\"hue\",\"type\":\"primary\",\"code\":{\"rgba\":[255,0,0,1],\"hex\":\"#FF0\"}}]}";
colors [] cData;
cData = fromJson(json);
return cData.colors[0].color;
