json

json(n) 							       JSON								   json(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME

       json - JSON parser

SYNOPSIS

       package require Tcl  8.4

       package require json  ?1.1?

       ::json::json2dict txt

_________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION

       The json package provides a simple Tcl-only library for parsing the JSON http://www.json.org/ data exchange format as specified in RFC 4627
       http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4627.txt.  There is some ambiguity in parsing JSON because JSON has type information that is not  maintained	by
       the Tcl conversion.  The json package returns data as a Tcl dict.  Either the dict package or Tcl 8.5 is required for use.

COMMANDS

       ::json::json2dict txt
	      Parse JSON formatted text txt into a Tcl dict and return the value.

EXAMPLES

       An example of a JSON array converted to Tcl.  A JSON array is returned as a single item with multiple elements.

       [
	   {
	      "precision": "zip",
	      "Latitude":  37.7668,
	      "Longitude": -122.3959,
	      "Address":   "",
	      "City":	   "SAN FRANCISCO",
	      "State":	   "CA",
	      "Zip":	   "94107",
	      "Country":   "US"
	   },
	   {
	      "precision": "zip",
	      "Latitude":  37.371991,
	      "Longitude": -122.026020,

	      "City":	   "SUNNYVALE",
	      "State":	   "CA",
	      "Zip":	   "94085",
	      "Country":   "US"
	   }
       ]
       =>
       {Country US Latitude 37.7668 precision zip State CA City {SAN FRANCISCO} Address {} Zip 94107 Longitude -122.3959} {Country US Latitude 37.371991 precision zip State CA City SUNNYVALE Address {} Zip 94085 Longitude -122.026020}

       An example of a JSON object converted to Tcl.  A JSON object is returned as a multi-element list (a dict).
