I have a JSON
output like the following:
["City1","City2","City3"]
I want to get each of the city names, how can i do this?
$.getJSON("url_with_json_here",function(json){ });
EDIT:
$.getJSON('url_here', function(data){ $.each(data, function (index, value) { $('#results').append('<p>'+value+'</p>'); console.log(value); }); });
The above doesn't seem to be working, no values are outputted.
Example - Parsing JSON Use the JavaScript function JSON.parse() to convert text into a JavaScript object: const obj = JSON.parse('{"name":"John", "age":30, "city":"New York"}'); Make sure the text is in JSON format, or else you will get a syntax error.
A JSON array contains zero, one, or more ordered elements, separated by a comma. The JSON array is surrounded by square brackets [ ] . A JSON array is zero terminated, the first index of the array is zero (0).
Use the JavaScript function JSON.stringify() to convert it into a string. const myJSON = JSON.stringify(obj); The result will be a string following the JSON notation.
JSON parsing is the process of converting a JSON object in text format to a Javascript object that can be used inside a program. In Javascript, the standard way to do this is by using the method JSON.
getJSON()
will also parse the JSON for you after fetching, so from then on, you are working with a simple Javascript array ([]
marks an array in JSON). The documentation also has examples on how to handle the fetched data.
You can get all the values in an array using a for
loop:
$.getJSON("url_with_json_here", function(data){ for (var i = 0, len = data.length; i < len; i++) { console.log(data[i]); } });
Check your console to see the output (Chrome, Firefox/Firebug, IE).
jQuery also provides $.each()
for iterations, so you could also do this:
$.getJSON("url_with_json_here", function(data){ $.each(data, function (index, value) { console.log(value); }); });
