Hi All,
Requirement : The customer at end point requires a JSON message of the following format.
| Code: |
[
"Customer" : {
"CustomersName" : "BHAMBHAM"
},
"Orders" : [{
"Order" : {
"OrderDate" : "27/04/2015 09:56:49 BST"
}
}
]
,
"Payment" : {
"Statusofpayment" : "Awaiting Security Check"
}
] |
What have I done:
I created a happy esql mapping code from a request which is XML and wrote lines of code to map and model the json message.
Since the message starts with the top level element as an array, I started of my creation with
| Code: |
SET OutputRoot.JSON.Data TYPE = JSON.Array; |
Within the data array, I then created the 3 children which are Customer, Orders and Payment.
| Code: |
CREATE LASTCHILD OF OutputRoot.JSON.Data.Customer AS outCustRef NAME 'Customer';
CREATE FIELD OutputRoot.JSON.Data.list.Orders IDENTITY(JSON.Array)Orders;
SET OutputRoot.JSON.Data.Item[1].Payment[].Statusofpayment= blah blah
|
Problem:
My output comes out after the field level mappings but it has a { before every primary children.
| Code: |
[
{"Customer" : {
"CustomersName" : "BHAMBHAM
}},
{"Orders" : [{
"Order" : {
"OrderDate" : "27/04/2015 09:56:49 BST"
}
}
]
},
{"Payment" : {
"Statusofpayment" : "Awaiting Security Check"
}
}
] |
Notice the {} embedding between Customer, Orders and Payment.
I read through various JSON related posts and in knowledge centre and I am yet to find a sample message that achieves the original requirement message style.
What do I seek:
the original requirement is not passing JSON validator(one of the sites found online JSONLint) while the one created by me is validated correctly.
So, if I am forced to create the message as per requirement, then is the way to go through string manipulation post serialising the message or can I achieve this by doing something dirty in esql.

That's what I thought...
Your JSON starts with [ and ends with ]
This is not right. Replace the start and end char with { and } and your JSON is valid!
Have fun

fjb_saber, I think you are wrong here as JSON can start as an array instead of just an object.
The JSONvalidator bombed the mentioned json as it did not have { before Customers/Orders/Payment.
Valid JSON
| Code: |
[ {Customer{Name:AAA},{Title:Mr}},{Order{Ordernumber:1111}}]
|
Invalid JSON
| Code: |
| [ Customer{Name:AAA},{Title:Mr},Order{Ordernumber:1111}] |

You might have to adjust the JSON type of each field - like you did with the JSON.Array for the top element.
Also, I'm not sure about the
That seems like it's creating another child of your array. Which is kinda the problem you're having...
