|
op-purpose: retrieve the value of a property from JSON strings
|
|
op-input: a selection of JSON strings
|
|
op-parameter: one or more indexes of the property to retrieve
|
|
op-output: the values of each of the retrieved properties
|
|
|
|
<<.from-version "5.2.4">> See [[JSON in TiddlyWiki]] for background.
|

|
|
The <<.op jsonindexes>> operator is used to retrieve the property names of JSON objects or the index names of JSON arrays. See also the following related operators:
|
|
|
|
* <<.olink jsonget>> to retrieve the values of a property in JSON data
|
|
* <<.olink jsontype>> to retrieve the type of a JSON value
|
|
* <<.olink jsonextract>> to retrieve a JSON value as a string of JSON
|
|
|
|
Properties within a JSON object are identified by a sequence of indexes. In the following example, the value at `[a]` is `one`, and the value at `[d][f][0]` is `five`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
{
|
|
"a": "one",
|
|
"b": "",
|
|
"c": "three",
|
|
"d": {
|
|
"e": "four",
|
|
"f": [
|
|
"five",
|
|
"six",
|
|
true,
|
|
false,
|
|
null
|
|
],
|
|
"g": {
|
|
"x": "max",
|
|
"y": "may",
|
|
"z": "maize"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The following examples assume that this JSON data is contained in a variable called `jsondata`.
|
|
|
|
The <<.op jsonindexes>> operator uses multiple operands to specify the indexes of the property to retrieve:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[<jsondata>jsonindexes[d],[f]] --> "0", "1", "2", "3", "4"
|
|
[<jsondata>jsonindexes[d],[g]] --> "x", "y", "z"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Indexes can be dynamically composed from variables and transclusions:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[<jsondata>jsonindexes<variable>,{!!field}]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Retrieving the indexes of JSON properties that are not objects or arrays will return nothing.
|
|
|
|
A subtlety is that the special case of a single blank operand is used to identify the root object. Thus:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
[<jsondata>jsonindexes[]] --> "a", "b", "c", "d"
|
|
```
