(Go) JSON: Nested Objects

Here we have a JSON object that contains nested JSON objects. This example demonstrates how to access the contents of the nested objects.

{
  "name": "donut",
  "image":
    {
    "fname": "donut.jpg",
    "w": 200,
    "h": 200
    },
  "thumbnail":
    {
    "fname": "donutThumb.jpg",
    "w": 32,
    "h": 32
    }
}

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.

    json := JsonObject_Ref.html">chilkat.NewJsonObject()

    // This is the above JSON with whitespace chars removed (SPACE, TAB, CR, and LF chars).
    // The presence of whitespace chars for pretty-printing makes no difference to the Load
    // method. 
    jsonStr := "{\"name\": \"donut\",\"image\":{\"fname\": \"donut.jpg\",\"w\": 200,\"h\": 200},\"thumbnail\":{\"fname\": \"donutThumb.jpg\",\"w\": 32,\"h\": 32}}"

    success = json.Load(jsonStr)
    if success == false {
        fmt.Println(json.LastErrorText())
        json.DisposeJsonObject()
        return
    }

    // Get the "image" object.
    imageObj := JsonObject_Ref.html">chilkat.NewJsonObject()
    json.ObjectOf2("image",imageObj)

    fmt.Println("image: fname=", *imageObj.StringOf("fname"), ", width=", imageObj.IntOf("w"), ", height=", imageObj.IntOf("h"))

    // Get the "thumbnail" object.
    thumbObj := JsonObject_Ref.html">chilkat.NewJsonObject()
    json.ObjectOf2("thumbnail",thumbObj)

    fmt.Println("thumbnail: fname=", *thumbObj.StringOf("fname"), ", width=", thumbObj.IntOf("w"), ", height=", thumbObj.IntOf("h"))

    json.DisposeJsonObject()
    imageObj.DisposeJsonObject()
    thumbObj.DisposeJsonObject()
