@psysc0rpi0n Great! You did it! Your code is good.
One of my goal in programming is trying to create code which is readable well. So I encapsule code into functions, even at the cost (in bash) to make code less resource efficient. Here the function for the creation of a json object:
This function operates on the given parameters($1, $2, ...):
use it like this:
Since it is bash it's a bit of a quoting and eval mess here.
Since you have a special object where all values are equal, I create another function, so the main call stays simple:
use it like this:
mydata will contain: { "key1": "value","key2": "value","key3": "value" }
The quoting is different from yours, but escaping the " with \ is not necessary, if you use the mydata variable in quotes this way "$mydata", since the content of mydata will not be parsed by the shell again.
Note: The function can not cope with values containing whitespace characters.
I couldn't find an existing thread that addressed this question, so hopefully this isn't redundant with anything previously posted. Here goes:
