Load JSON Data at Path

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates how to load JSON data into a path within a JSON database. For example, we begin with this JSON:

{
  "a": 1,
  "b": 2,
  "c": {
    "x": 1,
    "y": 2
  }
}

Then we load {"mm": 11, "nn": 22} to "c", and the result is this JSON:

{
  "a": 1,
  "b": 2,
  "c": {
    "mm": 11,
    "nn": 22
  }
}

PowerShell

Add-Type -Path "C:\chilkat\ChilkatDotNet47-x64\ChilkatDotNet47.dll"

# Demonstrates how to load replace the data at a location within a JSON database.

$p = "{`"a`": 1, `"b`": 2, `"c`": { `"x`": 1, `"y`": 2 } }"

$json = New-Object Chilkat.JsonObject
$json.Load($p)
$json.EmitCompact = $false
$($json.Emit())

$q = "{`"mm`": 11, `"nn`": 22}"

$c = New-Object Chilkat.JsonObject
$json.ObjectOf2("c",$c)
$c.Load($q)

# See that x and y are replaced with mm and nn.
$($json.Emit())
