OBJECT NOTATION

JSON
JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation.
JSON is a lightweight format for storing & transporting
data.
JSON is "self-describing" and easy to understand.
JSON is often used when data is sent from a server to a
web page.

[{”cit
Client y”:”pa
ris”,
“unit
s”:”c”
}] Server
JSON
Request /service/weather
Response
HTTP POST (REST Interface)
[{”low”:”16”, “high”:”23”}]
JSON EXAMPLE
{
“employees”:[
{”firstName” : ”John”, “lastName” : ”Doe”},
{”firstName” : ”Anna”, “lastName” : ”Smith”},
{”firstName” : ”Peter”, “lastName” : ”Jones”}
]
}

3 employee records (objects)

sosamson.com Key and Values


KEY AND VALUES
The two primary parts that make up JSON are keys and
values.
Together they make a key/value pair :-
Key: A key is always a string enclosed in quotation marks.
Value: A value can be a string, number, boolean
expression, array, or object.

Key “name” : “aditya” Value

The key is "name" and the value is "aditya".

JSON.parse()
When receiving data from a web server, the data is
always a string.

Imagine we received this text from a web server

'{ "name": "Aditya", "age": 19, "country": "India"}'

Use the JavaScript function JSON.parse() to convert


text into a JavaScript object

var obj = JSON.parse('{"name";"Aditya", *age":19, "country";"India"}');

sosamson.com JSON.stringify()
JSON.stringify()
The JSON.stringify() method converts a JavaScript object or
value to a JSON string, optionally replacing values if a replacer
function is specified or optionally including only the specified
properties if a replacer array is specified.
