Real Time data and Json File

[deleted286]

@jsulm yeah, i dont know why im storing datas in json as a config file, my boss wants and i do thats all

[deleted286]

@JKSH thank you, but is there anything wrong which i do as i explain

[JKSH]

@suslucoder said in Real Time data and Json File:

is there anything wrong

Yes, there are problems. Every time new data packets arrive, you must rewrite the whole JSON file.

You won't notice anything wrong when the file is small. But as the file gets bigger, performance will become very bad, and you will wear out your hard drive/SSD faster. The risk of data corruption might also be higher.

my boss wants

I can't understand why your boss wants this.

@JKSH he thinks that keeping datas on json == creating a config file. Like settings folder. But i know it isnt, so i dont know how can i handle with that issue

[jsulm]

You could explain to him the disadvantages shown by @JKSH

[deleted286]

@jsulm thank you

[J.Hilk]

@suslucoder well, you could only save the data as a json file, on program close, or something similar.

Fits your requirement and he will never know that the actual data processing/storage is something different.

Doesn't hurt to have redundancies either.

Good idea; this helps avoid the performance issues and hard drive wearing. Beware though: If the program crashes, all of the data will be lost.

[deleted286]

@JKSH i spoke with him, he says he wants a config file with json.

It should include the name of the data, and the type. Like
Name: string
Age: int
Height:float etc.

I dont know how to create such a file

ROFL. Are you now advising Qt programmers to deceive their bosses? ;-)

@suslucoder

What don't you know how to do? You have done JSON stuff, haven't you, so what is different about this task?

Have you tried to read JSON documentation?
==> https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/json.html
==> https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtcore-serialization-savegame-example.html

😱 me, never!

The boss will get what he want's, in the end. Bosses always only care about the end result 🤷‍♂️

@J-Hilk ahahahha you made me laugh so much

I create the file, but i dont know how to read such a complex json :D
Can anybody help?

   {
"GPS": [
    {

        "GPS ID": ["integer", "0"],
        "GPS Mod": ["integer", "1"],
        "GPS Utc": ["float", "2"],
        "GPS Latitude": ["float", "3"],
        "GPS Longitude": ["float", "4"],

       }
   ]
     }

@JonB actually, ı know, i created it with hand, but my question is we have something like

#define TM_AP_ID				0
#define TM_AP_durum 			1
#define TM_AP_hava_hizi			2
#define TM_AP_IMU_pitch			3
#define TM_AP_IMU_roll			4
#define TM_AP_IMU_yaw			5
#define TM_AP_IMU_barometre		6
#define TM_AP_rpm				7

and in my code, i will do some operations like

imu[TM_IMU_pitch].f

The issue is, that definitions should be in json, and i will call them from my json

What definitions? You can't call anything from JSON. JSON is just a data format. Please be more precise when asking...

@jsulm

im talking about them

#define TM_AP_ID				        0
#define TM_AP_durum 			        1
#define TM_AP_hava_hizi			2
#define TM_AP_IMU_pitch			3
#define TM_AP_IMU_roll			4
#define TM_AP_IMU_yaw			5
#define TM_AP_IMU_barometre	6
#define TM_AP_rpm				7

Hmm, so im just read json and write json. I cant do anything apart from these

I can not follow you, what did you expect to do?
Do you know what JSON is? ==> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON

[jsulm]

@suslucoder said in Real Time data and Json File:

So, all these definitions should be defined in your JSON? Then do so. Define them there, read and use the values.

[deleted286]

@jsulm I defined it in json.
I want to do that: Here is an example of my json

{
         "GPS":[
            {
               "GPS ID":[
                  "integer",
                  "0"
               ],
               "GPS Mod":[
                  "integer",
                  "1"
               ],
               "GPS Utc":[
                  "float",
                  "2"
               ],
               "GPS Latitude":[
                  "float",
                  "3"
               ]
}

If, Gps id has integer, 
assign gps[TM_GPS_ID].i

if Gps latitude has float
assign  gps[TM_GPS_lat].f
