Description

json_to_dictjson_to_dictJsonToDictJsonToDictjson_to_dict transforms the string passed in JsonStringJsonStringJsonStringjsonStringjson_string, which must be valid JSON, into a dictionary and returns the handle of the dictionary in DictHandleDictHandleDictHandledictHandledict_handle.

Several optional parameters can be set that control the values of JSON constants. Those parameters can be set via GenParamNameGenParamNameGenParamNamegenParamNamegen_param_name and GenParamValueGenParamValueGenParamValuegenParamValuegen_param_value and are described in the documentation of read_dictread_dictReadDictReadDictread_dict.

json_to_dictjson_to_dictJsonToDictJsonToDictjson_to_dict can transform several strings at once. For this, JsonStringJsonStringJsonStringjsonStringjson_string must contain a tuple of strings. The output DictHandleDictHandleDictHandledictHandledict_handle will then contain one dictionary per input string.

Execution Information

  • Multithreading type: independent (runs in parallel even with exclusive operators).
  • Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
  • Processed without parallelization.

This operator returns a handle. Note that the state of an instance of this handle type may be changed by specific operators even though the handle is used as an input parameter by those operators.

Parameters

JsonStringJsonStringJsonStringjsonStringjson_string (input_control)  string(-array) HTupleMaybeSequence[str]HTupleHtuple (string) (string) (HString) (char*)

Name of the generic parameter.

Default: []

Example (HDevelop)

json_to_dict ('{"capacity": "medium", "image_height": 1024, "image_width": 1024}', [], [], DictHandle)

Result

If the parameters are valid, the operator json_to_dictjson_to_dictJsonToDictJsonToDictjson_to_dict returns the value 2 ( H_MSG_TRUE) . If necessary an exception is raised. This is especially the case if JsonStringJsonStringJsonStringjsonStringjson_string does not contain valid JSON.
