Json-string inside a qml function possible?

Sam009

Hello,
I will create a Json-string inside a qml function.
but then I get the error Expected token `,' How i can fix this.
I define the JsonString outside as a property var jsonString then inside the function i set the content to this variable.
function add(){
.......................
................
jsonString = '{"Theoryname": ""+ rythmusname +"", "URL1": ""+ url1 +"", "URL2":"" + url2 +"","URL3": ""+ url3}';
Component.onCompleted: {
var JsonObject= JSON.parse(jsonString);
//retrieve values from JSON again
var aString = JsonObject.Theoryname;
var bString = JsonObject.URL1;
var cString = JsonObject.URL2;
var dString = JsonObject.URL3;
console.log(aString);
console.log(bString);
console.log(cString);
console.log(dString);
}
}
Is this correct, and can this work?

Sam009

Also if i make the Component.onCompleted: {...} outside the function and the var jsonString inside the function to set the content.
came the error ---> JSON.parse: Parse error .
How I can fix this, if it is better to set the Component.onCompleted: {...} out
The error came between
var JsonObject= JSON.parse(jsonString);
//retrieve values from JSON again
var aString = JsonObject.Theoryname;
Component.onCompleted: {

				var JsonObject= JSON.parse(jsonString);
				//retrieve values from JSON again
				var aString = JsonObject.Theoryname;
				var bString = JsonObject.URL1;
				var cString = JsonObject.URL2;
				var dString = JsonObject.URL3;

				console.log(aString);
				console.log(bString);
				console.log(cString);
				console.log(dString);
                                  }

Yes. If you try a simpler string, it will work:

jsonString = '{"key": "value"}'
var JsonObject = JSON.parse(jsonString);

'{"Theoryname": ""+ rythmusname +"", "URL1": ""+ url1 +"", "URL2":"" + url2 +"","URL3": ""+ url3}'

This is not a valid JSON string. To see why, call console.log(jsonString)

Hi @JKSH
I made console.log(jsonString) and i get this string {"Theoryname": ""+ rythmusname +"", "URL1": ""+ url1 +"", "URL2":"" + url2 +"","URL3": ""+ url3}

Then i have to make jsonString = {"Theoryname": " th1", "URL1": "url1", "URL2": " url2 " ,"URL3": "url3"} , Then it works if i make it define it directly and not with values.

But i can define the jsonString inside the function and the var JsonObject = JSON.parse(jsonString); is outside the function? (in another fucntion)

Thx i will try this.

Yes you can.

You're welcome. Good luck!

Yes this works, thx.

A smal question: How to define a Jason string array in qml. and also how to call it later. For example the first elment with his content?
Give it in qml a for loop , for the Jason string array?

Hi, I'm don't quite understand your question. Can you show an example of what you want?

I will create a json array and there i will save multipe elements. And this elments i will call later to get the content of the first element, or the second. But if i do this (code) i get the error JSON.parse: Parse error. How i can fix this and also is it possiblel to create a array in that way?

function add(){
.......................

switch (listrythmus.rh1) {
case 1: settings.jsonString[settings.jsonid] = '{"Rythmusname": "1", "URL1": "url1", "URL2":"url2","URL3": "url3"}'; break;

function jsonStringfunc{

				var bString = JsonObject.URL1[settings.jsonid];
				var cString = JsonObject.URL2[settings.jsonid];
				var dString = JsonObject.URL3[settings.jsonid];

                                    /*var aString = settings.jsonString.Rythmusname[settings.jsonid];
				var bString = settings.jsonString.URL1[settings.jsonid];
				var cString = settings.jsonString.URL2[settings.jsonid];
				var dString = settings.jsonString.URL3[settings.jsonid];*/

				console.log(aString)
				console.log(bString)
				console.log(cString)
				console.log(dString)                                    }
                                  }	
                                 settings.jsonid ++
                                update(Dialog)
                                }

jsonid is a extern variable store in the settings. it is the index.

Well, even though you named your variable jsonString, you did not create a string. You created an array.

You cannot pass an array into JSON.parse(); you can only pass a string.

Make sure you understand this:

// v1 is an array
var v1 = [];
v1[0] = 42;
v1[1] = "Hello";

// v2 is a string
var v2 = '[42, "Hello"]';

// v3 is an array that is has the same value as v1
var v3 = JSON.parse(v2);

Anyway, let's step back first: Why do you want to create JSON strings? Why not just use plain JavaScript objects and JavaScript arrays?

@JKSH
The idea is to create many elements with tag like URL1: "...." and this has different links etc..Also the name of the tag can by change and the number of tags this since I will make one element with "Rythmusname": "1", "URL1": "url1", "URL2":"url2","URL3": "url3" and a second "Typename": "1", "notename": "1", "URL1": "url1", "URL2":"url2","URL3": "url3". And I don´t know how to store this. So was the idea to create a Jason array/string that has all this and I will make a set of object that I can call later into an outer function. But I can only make one time the JSON. parse () and so a second so a second element get not store. (that was the idea to make an array and so it was "easier" to call a set/object with JsonObject.URL1 [id of the set]) But this don´t work give it a better solution?
{
"id": 1,
"Typename": "1"
"notename": "2"
"URL1": "url1",
"URL2":"url2",
"URL3": "url3"
},
{
"id": 2,
"Rythmusname": "Rythmusname"
"Url1": "1"
"Url2": "2"
"Url3": "3"
},
{
"id": 3,
Rythmusname": "Rythmusname"
"Url1": "1"
"Url2": "2"
"Url3": "3"
}
Or is it better to create more Json to store the different content, so that I have one for Rythmusname and Typename/notename. Into the settings I make the property very jsonString: [] them into the function I call it. But this is wrong since JSON. parse (v2) will create an Array of string (v2), if I understand the example with v3. Then I change jsonString: [] to jsonString. But then I can´t store more as one object/set.
How I can make that it store more elements that I can call later by here Id?I hope it is understandable, and I'm sorry for the many questions.

JKSH

You don't need JSON strings for this.

{

"Typename": "1"
"notename": "2"
"URL1": "url1",

"URL3": "url3"
},
{
"id": 2,
"Rythmusname": "Rythmusname"
"Url1": "1"
"Url2": "2"
"Url3": "3"
}

var obj1 = {};
obj1["id"] = 1; // NOTE: This is the same as ` obj1.id = 1`
obj1["Typename"] = "1";
obj1["notename"] = "2";
obj1["URL1"] = "url1";
obj1["URL2"] = "url2";
obj1["URL3"] = "url3";

var obj2 = {};
obj2["id"] = 2;
obj2["Rythmusname"] = "Rythmusname";
obj2["Url1"] = "1";
obj2["Url2"] = "2";
obj2["Url3"] = "3";

console.log(obj1.Typename)
console.log(obj2.Rhythmusname)

Ok and how I can it dynamically so that it can create more as 1 from the same. Since the idea is to create a X of number of them and save this. And later call them individually. (without to create multiple obj1... or jsaonstring)
If a I create a 2 theory then the previous information is not overwritten.
I've done it with Json-string, but I can only do one time "var JsonObject = JSON.parse (settings.jsonString);" , and if i set a 2 element (2 theorie) is no longer saved.
How do I can create more than one element of theorie and save it?

I'm sorry, I don't understand your description.

Here's a way to dynamically create Objects and put them into Arrays. I hope it helps:

Code

var array = [];
for (var i = 0; i < 3; ++i)
{
    var obj = {};
    obj["id"] = i;
    obj["url"] = "url" + i;

    array.push(obj);
}

console.log(array)

Output

[ { id: 0, url: 'url0' },
  { id: 1, url: 'url1' },
  { id: 2, url: 'url2' } ]

Based on the answer of JKSH, it is not a valid string so you need to log this.

---- First create an Object, then parse into a Json.------------------

if i make a object like :
objRhytmus["id"] = 12; objRhytmus["Rythmusname"] = "th1"; objRhytmus["URL1"] = "Link"; objRhytmus["URL2"] = "Link"; objRhytmus["URL3"] = "Link";

Then var json2 = JSON.stringify(objRhytmus); this object is now a Json-string and how i can call the emelent "id" with objRhytmus["id"]
Then i make a JSON.parse(json2) . to get a Json-string, but is this still like this:
[
{
"id": 1,
"Typename": "1"
"notename": "2"
"URL1": "url1",
"URL2":"url2",
"URL3": "url3"
},
{
"id": 2,
"Rythmusname": "Rythmusname"
"Url1": "1"
"Url2": "2"
"Url3": "3"
},
{
"id": 3,
Rythmusname": "Rythmusname"
"Url1": "1"
"Url2": "2"
"Url3": "3"
}
]

And if i call the id of one set then i can get the whole set with this id, or is it now a string?
But can I make this multiple time so that the previously element is still there and not override. Or how i can do that i have more as one set of this object/set?

JKSH

@Sam009 said in Json-string inside a qml function possible?:

This is the first part of your code:

if i make a object like :
objRhytmus["id"] = 12; objRhytmus["Rythmusname"] = "th1"; objRhytmus["URL1"] = "Link"; objRhytmus["URL2"] = "Link"; objRhytmus["URL3"] = "Link";

This is the 2nd part of your code:

Then var json2 = JSON.stringify(objRhytmus); this object is now a Json-string and how i can call the emelent "id" with objRhytmus["id"]
Then i make a JSON.parse(json2) . to get a Json-string, but is this still like this:
[
{
"id": 1,
"Typename": "1"
"notename": "2"
"URL1": "url1",
"URL2":"url2",
"URL3": "url3"
},
{
"id": 2,
"Rythmusname": "Rythmusname"
"Url1": "1"
"Url2": "2"
"Url3": "3"
},
{
"id": 3,
Rythmusname": "Rythmusname"
"Url1": "1"
"Url2": "2"
"Url3": "3"
}
]

Can you please update your example? Make the first part match the second part. Otherwise, it is difficult for me to understand what you want.

Hi, I'm sorry for the late answer. Thanks for your help, I find out a solution. And for the moment it works :) I made an "object array" obj [n] = {"id": Val, "url": "url"}And n is the value of the id., and it is the set number.
And if I will set a new element to this val I take the val of id and put the new element (the with different element names.) on it. obj[n] = { "id" : val, "url2": "url"}. so at the object with the id = x get a new value.
And I use jsonstring = JSON. stringify (obj); to make a json object of all object[].
