JSON Paths that need Double Quotes

See more JSON Examples

This example explains and demonstrates the situations where parts within a JSON path need to be enclosed in double-quotes. Chilkat2 Java

import com.chilkatsoft.chilkat2.JsonObject;

public class ChilkatExample {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        // Imagine we have the following JSON:

        //     {
        //       "Meta Data": {
        //         "1: Symbol": "MSFT",
        //         "2: Indicator": "Relative Strength Index (RSI)",
        //         "3: Last Refreshed": "2017-07-28 09:30:00",
        //         "4: Interval": "15min",
        //         "5: Time Period": 10,
        //         "6: Series Type": "close",
        //         "7: Time Zone": "US/Eastern Time"
        //       },
        //       "Technical Analysis: RSI": {
        //         "2017-07-28 09:30": {
        //           "RSI": "38.6964"
        //         },
        //         "2017-07-27 16:00": {
        //           "RSI": "50.0088"
        //         }
        //     }

        // The path to the RSI valud 38.6964 is Technical Analysis: RSI.2017-07-28 09:30.RSI

        // Whenever a path part contains a SPACE or "." char, that part must be enclosed
        // in double quotes.  For example:

        JsonObject json = new JsonObject();
        json.loadFile("qa_data/json/rsi.json");

        System.out.println("RSI: " + json.stringOf("\"Technical Analysis: RSI\".\"2017-07-28 09:30\".RSI"));

        // output is 38.6964
    }
