如何区分这是什么类型的 JSON API 响应？

Question

I am new to JSON and XML. When doing a POST or GET request to an API, how can I tell the type of response given? For example, is it JSON or RAW or application? Can someone tell me what kind of response this is from a web API? Why are there quotes around every key and property?

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
{
  "audioChannels": "5.1",
  "audioCodec": "DolbyDigital",
  "container": "mkv",
  "episodeNumber": 3,
  "format": "WEBRip",
  "mimetype": "video/x-matroska",
  "releaseGroup": "NTb",
  "screenSize": "1080p",
  "season": 2,
  "series": "House of Cards",
  "title": "NF",
  "type": "episode",
  "videoCodec": "h264",
  "year": 2013
}

Is this JSON? JSONP? XML? What is this?

Answer 1

这是一个普通的 JSON 响应（带有一些 HTTP 响应信息）。

Answer 2

This is an API response from GuessIt. GuessIt itself is a python library that tries to extract as much information as possible from a filename.

Web Service API

The guessit.io server also provides a free webservice that allows you to perform filename detection, even you don't have python installed (eg: you need to use it from an Android app, or NodeJS, etc.).

You can look at the documentation for the web API here:
