JsonSlurper generating different result between single-quoted and double-quoted input

Question

I want to convert a String to json and using

JsonSlurper.parseText("{'name' : 'robel'}") is Throwing Exception.

I tried changing it to

JsonSlurper.parseText('{"name" : "robel"}')

and it works fine. All i did to the first code is substitute the the single cote with double cote and vice versa .can some one tell me why this is happening and how to solve it?

Answer 1

Both things in your question are the same?

Json requires double quotes

You need an instance of JsonSlurper, and double quotes in your json:

new JsonSlurper().parseText('{"name" : "robel"}')
