(Tcl) JSON Paths that need Double Quotes
This example explains and demonstrates the situations where parts within a JSON path need to be enclosed in double-quotes.
load ./chilkat.dll
# 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:
set json [new_CkJsonObject]
CkJsonObject_LoadFile $json "qa_data/json/rsi.json"
puts "RSI: [CkJsonObject_stringOf $json \"Technical Analysis: RSI\".\"2017-07-28 09:30\".RSI]"
# output is 38.6964
delete_CkJsonObject $json
