jQuery“ $ .getJSON”的说明

Question

I am having a hard time understanding the $.getJSON .
I have a url and I want to make a function for example fetch(url) where I use $.getJSON to fetch a string and parse it.

The response of the url is in this form:

{
    "status": "Unknown",
    "additionalStatus": "None",
    "emailAddressProvided": "test@tester.com",
    "emailAddressChecked": "test@tester.com",
    "emailAddressSuggestion": ""
}

I want the function to return a var data where

data.status = Unknown 
data.additionalStatus = None
.
.

... and so on.

Thank you!

Answer 1

function fetch(){ var output; $.ajax({ url: "put url here", datatype: "json", async: false }) .done(function(data){ output = "hi"; }); return output; }

Maybe you could do something like this to return an output. It however is not recommended to put to set async to false.
