How to extract json values from json in javascript

Question

Hello guys I am currently trying to phrase a json but it's hard for me. The json response is

{
"txs": 
{
    "lock_time": 0,
    "ver": 1,
    "size": 372,
    "inputs": [

        }
    ]
}
]
}

This json is stored in a variable content . By let content = JSON.parse(result)

I used var data = content.txs.inputs.addr

to take out the info from that but it shows nothing, null. I also tried only content and it works, but it doesn't work with content.txs.inputs.addr . Can any JavaScript developers help me solve this? I'm facing this type of json for the first time.

Answer 1

content.txs.inputs is an array. Did you mean var data = content.txs.inputs[0].prev_out.addr; ?

Answer 2

You need to go down a couple more steps

inputs is an array, so you need a subscript, then two more levels of keys:

Var data = content.txs.inputs[0].prev_out.addr

Note that there is an addr value in both the inputs elements. Change the subscript to get the other one.

Answer 3

element inputs is an arrray, so you need access each postion in array, you can use for loop for element inputs, access each position such as inputs[0].addr, inputs[1].addr

Answer 4

1. The object model for the inputs array don't have any addr property, you need to access the prev_out object property to get the addr value.

2. You are missing an closing ] in the inputs array, and you need to remove the ] at the end of the json file.

After that you can get the addr property in the next way:

 const content = { "txs": { "lock_time": 0, "ver": 1, "size": 372, "inputs": [ { "sequence": 4294967295, "prev_out": { "spent": true, "tx_index": 78636642, "type": 0, "addr": "1Dihat9Fy1ZDzFCq33LN5M7kzG3Fmi3FbZ", "value": 61140, "n": 1, "script": "76a9148b84711990f82d3cd70013e738787506a2156ebf88ac" }, "script": "47304402203409c3381b75deac615630125c62af73e959e4e42431397209d0298da272c4b4022011720c0e8ecc8a4d01e1f6210891fe5e65f581473c05f0b15bc38010ca5155610121038b1c61898ba817c0361fb910c001cddf309388f6e156f96de749fdbb1c531f34" }, { "sequence": 4294967295, "prev_out": { "spent": true, "tx_index": 78634898, "type": 0, "addr": "1Dihat9Fy1ZDzFCq33LN5M7kzG3Fmi3FbZ", "value": 379950, "n": 1, "script": "76a9148b84711990f82d3cd70013e738787506a2156ebf88ac" }, "script": "473044022051029de181886a8225e78ea8c97fcdff4fdf65bd5479cf4370a8bf38ffd8770002202e788bb00aa4b017249eeefdfcf49cc2e591a7dbb25a1b2a3df924505b7683a50121038b1c61898ba817c0361fb910c001cddf309388f6e156f96de749fdbb1c531f34" }], "doublespend": false, "time": 1424718521, "txindex": 78637260, "vinsz": 2, "hash": "011931da4d5ef3afde1b043f285b27cec2883b9d77feda71fe67b13341778494", "voutsz": 2, "relayedby": "127.0.0.1", "out": [ { "addrtaglink": "http://luckyb.it/", "addrtag": "LuckyBit blue", "spent": false, "txindex": 78637260, "type": 0, "addr": "1LuckyB5VGzdZLZSBZvw8DR17iiFCpST7L", "value": 356450, "n": 0, "script": "76a914da5dde86d69a5d9dad88763f2df4b048953c7d0488ac" }, { "spent": false, "txindex": 78637260, "type": 0, "addr": "1Dihat9Fy1ZDzFCq33LN5M7kzG3Fmi3FbZ", "value": 74640, "n": 1, "script": "76a9148b84711990f82d3cd70013e738787506a2156ebf88ac" } ] } }; // Now you can get the info content.txs.inputs.forEach(element => { console.log(element.prev_out.addr); })
