How can I deserialize:
{
"data": [
{"ForecastID":8587961,"StatusForecast":"Done"},
{"ForecastID":8588095,"StatusForecast":"Done"},
{"ForecastID":8588136,"StatusForecast":"Done"},
{"ForecastID":8588142,"StatusForecast":"Pending"}
]
}
to
class RawData
{
public string data { get; set; }
}
So, I just want to have
[
{"ForecastID":8587961,"StatusForecast":"Done"},
{"ForecastID":8588095,"StatusForecast":"Done"},
{"ForecastID":8588136,"StatusForecast":"Done"},
{"ForecastID":8588142,"StatusForecast":"Pending"}
]
as value of property data of RawData's class instance.
Using Json.Net
var obj = (JObject)JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json);
var newJson = obj["data"].ToString();
or using built-in JavaScriptSerializer
var dict = new JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize<Dictionary<string, object>>(json);
var newjson = new JavaScriptSerializer().Serialize(dict["data"]);
It would have made far much more sense to deserialize this JSON structure to:
public class Forecast
{
public IEnumerable<ForecastData> Data { get; set; }
}
public class ForecastData
{
public int ForecastID { get; set; }
public string StatusForecast { get; set; }
}
which is pretty trivial with the JavaScriptSerializer class that's built into the framework:
string json = "your JSON data here";
IEnumerable<ForecastData> data = new JavaScriptSerializer()
.Deserialize<Forecast>(json)
.Data;
or if you don't want to define models you could do that:
dynamic result = new JavaScriptSerializer().DeserializeObject(json);
foreach (var item in result["data"])
{
Console.WriteLine("{0}: {1}", item["ForecastID"], item["StatusForecast"]);
}

I am trying to parse manually a string in json. This is how my json look like
{{
"dbViews": [
{
"viewID": 0,
"viewColumns": [
{
"dbTitle": "ColNmid",
"viewTitle": "string",
"activated": true,
"activatedLabel": "Afficher"
},
{
"dbTitle": "ColNmdelete",
"viewTitle": "string",
"activated": true,
"activatedLabel": "Afficher"
}
]
}
],
"AddViewName": "test"
}}
This is how i am trying to read it.
UserViewDto User = new UserViewDto();
dynamic obj = JObject.Parse(json);
User.id = obj.dbViews.viewID;
User.viewName = obj.AddViewName;
foreach (var item in obj.viewColumns)
{
if (obj.dbTitle == "ColNmid")
{
User.ColNmid = obj.viewTitle;
}
}
I can only read addViewName, i can't seem to access viewID or viewColumn.
Update:
after the comments I obviously miss the second array. Here my new code witch work
UserViewDto User = new UserViewDto();
dynamic obj = JObject.Parse(json);
User.viewName = obj.AddViewName;
foreach (var view in obj.dbViews)
{
User.id = view.viewID;
foreach (var item in view.viewColumns)
{
if (item.dbTitle == "ColNmid")
{
User.ColNmid = item.viewTitle;
}
}
}
Your json in question is invalid (extra { and } at start and end). It seems that you are using Newtonsoft's Json.NET library. Usual approach is to create model corresponding to your json structure and deserialize it:
public class Root
{
[JsonProperty("dbViews")]
public List<DbView> DbViews { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("AddViewName")]
public string AddViewName { get; set; }
}
public class DbView
{
[JsonProperty("viewID")]
public long ViewId { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("viewColumns")]
public List<ViewColumn> ViewColumns { get; set; }
}
public class ViewColumn
{
[JsonProperty("dbTitle")]
public string DbTitle { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("viewTitle")]
public string ViewTitle { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("activated")]
public bool Activated { get; set; }
[JsonProperty("activatedLabel")]
public string ActivatedLabel { get; set; }
}
var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Root>();
You don't need to include all properties in your class, you can include only needed ones.
If you don't want to create custom models and want to loop through the JObject properties in your case you can do it for example like that:
var jObj = JObject.Parse(json);
foreach(var view in jObj["dbViews"]) // dbViews is an array
{
Console.WriteLine(view["viewID"]);
foreach (var viewColumn in view["viewColumns"]) // viewColumns is an array
{
Console.WriteLine(viewColumn["dbTitle"]);
}
}
I am sending URL request and getting response in curl and then convert into a json...object inside object(contain numeric and dot(924.136028459)) like:
string arr1 =
"{
"success":1,
"results":[
{
"Markets":{
"924.136028459":{
"productType":"BOOK1",
"key":"SB_MARKET:924.136028459"
},
"924.136028500":{
"productType":"BOOK2",
"key":"SB_MARKET:924.136028459"
}
}
}
]
}";
I have created properties class ..but i am not understanding how can we access inside "924.136028500" attributes
public class Json
{
public System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection<Arr> results { get; set; }
}
public class Arr
{
public sp Markets { get; set; }
}
public class sp
{
public string productType { get; set; }
public string key { get; set; }
}
and I am using deserialize code...
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
Json json = serializer.Deserialize<Json>(arr1);
With Cinchoo ETL - an open source library, you can load the Market object easily with few lines of code
string json = #"{
""success"":1,
""results"":[
{
""Markets"":{
""924.136028459"":{
""productType"":""BOOK1"",
""key"":""SB_MARKET:924.136028459""
},
""924.136028500"":{
""productType"":""BOOK2"",
""key"":""SB_MARKET:924.136028459""
}
}
}
]
}
";
foreach (var rec in ChoJSONReader<sp>.LoadText(json).WithJSONPath("$..Markets.*"))
Console.WriteLine($"ProductType: {rec.productType}, Key: {rec.key}");
Output:
ProductType: BOOK1, Key: SB_MARKET:924.136028459
ProductType: BOOK2, Key: SB_MARKET:924.136028459

I trying to get the id and email list from the JSON. How can i achieve this?
My JSON string is
{
"name":"name1",
"username":"name1",
"id":505,
"state":"active",
"email":"name1#mail.com",
},
{
"name":"name2",
"username":"name2",
"id":504,
"state":"active",
"email":"name2#mail.com",
}
My code is
Dictionary<string, string> engineers = new Dictionary<string, string>();
using (StreamReader r = new StreamReader(#"D:\project\Gitlap\EngineerEmail\jsonlist5.json"))
{
using (JsonTextReader reader = new JsonTextReader(r))
{
JObject o2 = (JObject)JToken.ReadFrom(reader);
string id = o2["id"].ToString();
string email = o2["email"].ToString();
engineers.Add(email, id);
}
}
class UserItems
{
public string id { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
}
I can able to get the first person`s mail ID and ID details. I need to iterate this JSON and get all the mail ID and ID.
I don`t know that how to iterate this JSON. I tried some method from the internet but that was not succeeded.
How can I do?
First thing is your JSON input is not valid json, you need to fix it. There are two issues in it. Its not collection of json objects and comma is missing between two objects.
Valid json should look like below.
[{
"name":"name1",
"username":"name1",
"id":505,
"state":"active",
"email":"name1#mail.com",
},
{
"name":"name2",
"username":"name2",
"id":504,
"state":"active",
"email":"name2#mail.com",
}]
Now define a c# class representing your json object.
public class User
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string username { get; set; }
public int id { get; set; }
public string state { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
}
Use JSON.Net library to deserialize it as shown below.
private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if(File.Exists("json1.json"))
{
string inputJSON = File.ReadAllText("json1.json");
if(!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(inputJSON))
{
var userList = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<User>>(inputJSON);
}
}
}
JObject o2 = (JObject)JToken.ReadFrom(reader);
foreach(var obj in o2)
{
string id = obj["id"].ToString();
string Email= obj["Email"].ToString();
engineers.Add(email, id);
}
I would recommend using the Json.NET NuGet package to accomplish this.
Firstly, create a model to represent your JSON data. Typically I would capitalize the first letter of the property names here, but to keep it consistent with the JSON, they are lower case.
public class UserData
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string username { get; set; }
public int id { get; set; }
public string state { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
}
You will need to add a using for Json.NET
using Newtonsoft.Json;
Finally, you can load, and deserialize your data into a strongly typed list, which you can then use to populate your engineers dictionary.
string datapath = #"D:\project\Gitlap\EngineerEmail\jsonlist5.json";
Dictionary<string, string> engineers = new Dictionary<string, string>();
List<UserData> data = new List<UserData>();
using (StreamReader r = new StreamReader(datapath))
{
string json = r.ReadToEnd();
data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<UserData>>(json);
data.ForEach(engineer => engineers.Add(engineer.email, engineer.id.ToString()));
}
As mentioned in another answer, your JSON is also badly formed. This will need correcting before it will deserialize correctly. We just need to add a comma to separate the two objects, and wrap them both in a JSON array, with []
[
{
"name":"name1",
"username":"name1",
"id":505,
"state":"active",
"email":"name1#mail.com"
},
{
"name":"name2",
"username":"name2",
"id":504,
"state":"active",
"email":"name2#mail.com"
}
]
Improvements
As your Id field is an integer, it would be better to change your dictionary from
Dictionary<string, string> engineers = new Dictionary<string, string>();
into
Dictionary<string, int> engineers = new Dictionary<int, string>();
You will then be able to simplify your ForEach query slightly. The ForEach can also be moved outside of the using() block.
data.ForEach(engineer =>
engineers.Add(engineer.email, engineer.id));
Improved solution
This includes the improvements above, I've used var for brevity.
var datapath = #"D:\project\Gitlap\EngineerEmail\jsonlist5.json";
var engineers = new Dictionary<string, int>();
var data = new List<UserData>();
using (var r = new StreamReader(datapath))
{
var json = r.ReadToEnd();
data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<List<UserData>>(json);
}
data.ForEach(engineer =>
engineers.Add(engineer.email, engineer.id));
try to create class that represent the data in json object for example
Class obj
{
public int Id { get ; set; }
public string email { get ; set; }
public string username { get ; set; }
public string state { get ; set; }
public string email { get ; set; }
}
then
using System.Web.Script.Serialization;
var js = new JavaScriptSerializer();
List<obj> list = js.Deserialize<List<obj>>(jsonString);
after that you can access all list items id and email by using foreach
I have to read a JSON stream (which I have no control over), which is in the form:
{"files":
{
"/some_file_path.ext": {"size":"1000", "data":"xxx", "data2":"yyy"},
"/other_file_path.ext": {"size":"2000", "data":"xxx", "data2":"yyy"},
"/another_file_path.ext": {"size":"3000", "data":"xxx", "data2":"yyy"},
}
}
So, I have an object named files, which has a number of properties, which have 1) different names every time, 2) different number of them every time, and 3) names with characters which can't be used in C# properties.
How do I deserialize this?
I'm putting this into a Portable Library, so I can't use the JavaScriptSerializer, in System.Web.Script.Serialization, and I'm not sure about JSON.NET. I was hoping to use the standard DataContractJsonSerializer.
UPDATE: I've changed the sample data to be closer to the actual data, and corrected the JSON syntax in the area the wasn't important. (Still simplified quite a bit, but the other parts are fairly standard)
You can model your "files" object as a Dictionary keyed by the JSON property name:
public class RootObject
{
public Dictionary<string, PathData> files { get; set; }
}
public class PathData
{
public int size { get; set; }
public string data { get; set; }
public string data2 { get; set; }
}
Then, only if you are using .Net 4.5 or later, you can deserialize using DataContractJsonSerializer, but you must first set DataContractJsonSerializerSettings.UseSimpleDictionaryFormat = true:
var settings = new DataContractJsonSerializerSettings { UseSimpleDictionaryFormat = true };
var root = DataContractJsonSerializerHelper.GetObject<RootObject>(jsonString, settings);
With the helper method:
public static class DataContractJsonSerializerHelper
{
public static T GetObject<T>(string json, DataContractJsonSerializer serializer = null)
{
using (var stream = GenerateStreamFromString(json))
{
var obj = (serializer ?? new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(T))).ReadObject(stream);
return (T)obj;
}
}
public static T GetObject<T>(string json, DataContractJsonSerializerSettings settings)
{
return GetObject<T>(json, new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(T), settings));
}
private static MemoryStream GenerateStreamFromString(string value)
{
return new MemoryStream(Encoding.Unicode.GetBytes(value ?? ""));
}
}
Alternatively, you can install Json.NET and do:
var root = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(jsonString);
Json.NET automatically serializes dictionaries to JSON objects without needing to change settings.
We need to first convert this Invalid JSON to a Valid JSON. So a Valid JSON should look like this
{
"files":
{
"FilePath" : "C:\\some\\file\\path",
"FileData" : {
"size": 1000,
"data": "xxx",
"data2": "yyy"
},
"FilePath" :"C:\\other\\file\\path",
"FileData" : {
"size": 2000,
"data": "xxx",
"data2": "yyy"
},
"FilePath" :"C:\\another\\file\\path",
"FileData" : {
"size": 3000,
"data": "xxx",
"data2": "yyy"
}
}
}
To make it a valid JSON we might use some string functions to make it looks like above. Such as
MyJSON = MyJSON.Replace("\\", "\\\\");
MyJSON = MyJSON.Replace("files", "\"files\"");
MyJSON = MyJSON.Replace("data:", "\"data:\"");
MyJSON = MyJSON.Replace("data2", "\"data2\"");
MyJSON = MyJSON.Replace(": {size", ",\"FileData\" : {\"size\"");
MyJSON = MyJSON.Replace("C:", "\"FilePath\" :\"C:");
Than we can create a class like below to read the
public class FileData
{
public int size { get; set; }
public string data { get; set; }
public string data2 { get; set; }
}
public class Files
{
public string FilePath { get; set; }
public FileData FileData { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public Files files { get; set; }
}
Assuming you have a valid JSON you could use JavaScriptSerializer to return a list of objects
string json = "{}"
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var deserializedValues = (Dictionary<string, object>)serializer.Deserialize(json, typeof(object));
Alternatively you could specify Dictionary<string, List<string>> as the type argument
strign json = "{}";
JavaScriptSerializer serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var deserializedValues = serializer.Deserialize<Dictionary<string, List<string>>>(json);
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, List<string>> kvp in deserializedValues)
{
Console.WriteLine(kvp.Key + ": " + string.Join(",", kvp.Value));
}
I want to parse JSON string in C# asp.net mVC3 but not getting idea of how to parse my json string.
my JSON String is like that:
{"dept":"HR","data":[{"height":5.5,"weight":55.5},{"height":5.4,"weight":59.5},{"height":5.3,"weight":67.7},{"height":5.1,"weight":45.5}]}
Code:
var allData = { dept: deptname, data: arr};
var allDataJson = JSON.stringify(allData);
$.ajax({
url: '<%=Url.Action("funx","Controller")%>',
data: { DJson: allDataJson },
async: false,
cache: false,
type: 'POST',
success: function (data) {
alert("success data: "+data);
}
});
public String funx(string DJson)
{
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Returned Json String:" + DJson);
// var yourObject = new JavaScriptSerializer().Deserialize(DJson);
return "successfull";
}
I am new to asp.net. I want to parse the string and save it in database.
Method 1:
Create two classes with the structure of your JSON string:
public class myobj
{
public string dept;
public IEnumerable<mydata>;
}
public class mydata
{
public int weight;
public int height;
}
and after that use this to parse it:
public static T FromJSON<T>(string str)
{
JavaScriptSerializer serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
return serializer.Deserialize<T>(str);
}
Like this:
myobj obj = MP3_SIOP_LT.Code.Helpers.JSONHelper.FromJSON<myobj>(#"{""dept"":""HR"",""data"":[{""height"":5.5,""weight"":55.5},{""height"":5.4,""weight"":59.5},{""height"":5.3,""weight"":67.7},{""height"":5.1,""weight"":45.5}]}");
The result:
Method 2:
If you don't want to have classes with your JSON structure, use the same method as above like this but in order to get a dynamic object:
dynamic obj = MP3_SIOP_LT.Code.Helpers.JSONHelper.FromJSON<dynamic>(#"{""dept"":""HR"",""data"":[{""height"":5.5,""weight"":55.5},{""height"":5.4,""weight"":59.5},{""height"":5.3,""weight"":67.7},{""height"":5.1,""weight"":45.5}]}");
The result:
First create a model for your json
public class Size
{
public double height { get; set; }
public double weight { get; set; }
}
public class MyData
{
public string dept { get; set; }
public List<Size> data { get; set; }
}
Now you can deserialize your json. With built-in DataContractJsonSerializer
var serializer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(MyData));
var data = (MyData)serializer.ReadObject(new MemoryStream(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(json)));
or With Json.Net
var data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<MyData>(json);
You can even go the dynamic way without creating any classes
dynamic dynObj = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject(json);
foreach(var item in dynObj.data)
{
Console.WriteLine("{0} {1}", item.height, item.weight);
}
You can use NewtonSoft Json.Net for parsing.
Try this
var json = "{\"dept\":\"HR\",\"data\":[{\"height\":5.5,\"weight\":55.5},{\"height\":5.4,\"weight\":59.5},{\"height\":5.3,\"weight\":67.7},{\"height\":5.1,\"weight\":45.5}]}";
var foo = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<RootObject>(json);
// Check Values
// var department = foo.dept;
// foreach (var item in foo.data)
// {
// var height = item.height;
// var weight = item.weight;
// }
public class Datum
{
public double height { get; set; }
public double weight { get; set; }
}
public class RootObject
{
public string dept { get; set; }
public List<Datum> data { get; set; }
}
