Node.js - 解析简单的JSON对象并访问键和值

Question

I am new to Node and struggling to access a simple JSON object. My request.body will have JSON content similar to the following:

{
    "store_config": [
        {
            "name": "hello",
            "name2": "world"
        }
    ]
}

The "store_config" value will always be present, however the keys and values within could be anything.

How can I iterate through the keys and values to access each? I would also like to process each in an asynchronous manner.

Appreciate any thoughts or direction.

UPDATE

console.log(typeof(request.body));

Returns: Object

parsedBody = JSON.parse(request.body);

returns:

SyntaxError: Unexpected token o
    at Object.parse (native)

UPDATE 2 - Further debug:

When I try to iterate through the array, there is only a single value:

request.body.store_config.forEach(function(item, index) {
  console.log(index);
  console.log(request.body.store_config[index]);

});

returns:

0
{ name: 'hello', name2: 'world' }

Answer 1

If request.body is already being parsed as JSON, you can just access the data as a JavaScript object; for example,

request.body.store_config

Otherwise, you'll need to parse it with JSON.parse :

parsedBody = JSON.parse(request.body);

Since store_config is an array, you can iterate over it:

request.body.store_config.forEach(function(item, index) {
  // `item` is the next item in the array
  // `index` is the numeric position in the array, e.g. `array[index] == item`
});

If you need to do asynchronous processing on each item in the array, and need to know when it's done, I recommend you take a look at an async helper library like async --in particular, async.forEach may be useful for you :

async.forEach(request.body.store_config, function(item, callback) {
  someAsyncFunction(item, callback);
}, function(err){
  // if any of the async callbacks produced an error, err would equal that error
});

I talk a little bit about asynchronous processing with the async library in this screencast .

Something like this:

config = JSON.parse(jsonString);
for(var i = 0; i < config.store_config.length; ++i) {
   for(key in config.store_config[i]) {
      yourAsyncFunction.call(this, key, config.store_config[i][key]);
   }
}

To convert this sting to an actual object, use JSON.parse . You can iterate though Javascript objects like you would with an array.

config = JSON.parse(string).store_config[0]
foreach (var key in config) {
    value = config[key]
}
