JSON UpdateString

See more JSON Examples

Demonstrates the JSON object's UpdateString method.

Note: The UpdateString method was introduced in Chilkat v9.5.0.63

Zig

const std = @import("std");
const chilkat = @import("chilkat");

pub fn main(init: std.process.Init) !void {
    const alloc = init.arena.allocator();

    // This example requires Chilkat v9.5.0.63 or greater.

    const json = try chilkat.JsonObject.init();
    defer json.deinit();
    json.setEmitCompact(false);

    // The UpdateString method updates or adds a string member.
    // It also auto-creates the objects and/or arrays that
    // are missing.  For example:
    json.updateString("test.abc[0].xyz", "Chicago Cubs") catch {};

    // The JSON now contains:
    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try json.emit(alloc)});

    // {
    //   "test": {
    //     "abc": [
    //       {
    //         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs"
    //       }
    //     ]
    //   }

    json.updateString("test.abc[0].xyz", "Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!") catch {};
    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{try json.emit(alloc)});

    // {
    //   "test": {
    //     "abc": [
    //       {
    //         "xyz": "Chicago Cubs are going to win the World Series!"
    //       }
    //     ]
    //   }
