I know that this question has been asked ad nauseam, but the existing answers haven't been particularly helpful for me. The best is Deserialize JSON into C# dynamic object? , but I don't want to create an object, I want to create a Dictionary.
I serialize my data like so, and I want to deserialize to precisely the same data structure:
public static string AugDictToJSON(Dictionary<string, List<Dictionary<string, object>>> dict)
{
return string.Join(",", dict.Select(
d => string.Format("{{ \"{0}\" : [ {1} ] }}", d.Key,
string.Join(",", d.Value.Select(i => SubAugDictToJSON(i)).ToArray())
)).ToArray());
}
public static string SubAugDictToJSON(Dictionary<string, object> dict)
{
return string.Join(",", dict.Select(
d => string.Format("{{ \"{0}\" : \"{1}\" }}", d.Key, d.Value.ToString())
).ToArray());
}
EDIT: Solution is the following (from accepted answer):
public static Dictionary<string, List<Dictionary<string, object>>> JSONToAugDict(string json)
{
return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Dictionary<string, List<Dictionary<string, object>>>>(json);
}
I recommend using the NuGet package ' Newtonsoft.Json '.
This package is used by WebAPI for serialization / deserialization and is quite fast. More information can be found here: http://james.newtonking.com/pages/json-net.aspx
var results = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<dynamic>(json);
Alternatively, as an IDictionary:
var result = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<IDictionary<string, object>>(json);
I tried something similar using Json.NET for an application I was working on (Taken from my own question: Deserializing json string into an object - Silverlight )
JSON :
{
"disclaimer": "This data is collected from various providers and provided free of charge for informational purposes only, with no guarantee whatsoever of accuracy, validity, availability or fitness for any purpose; use at your own risk. Other than that - have fun, and please share/watch/fork if you think data like this should be free!",
"license": "Data collected from various providers with public-facing APIs; copyright may apply; not for resale; no warranties given.",
"timestamp": 1334183999,
"base": "USD",
"rates": {
"AED": 3.6732,
"AFN": 48.400002,
"ALL": 106.669998,
}
}
Object that will hold the data:
public class ExchangeData
{
public string disclaimer { get; set; }
public string license { get; set; }
public string timestamp { get; set; }
public string @base { get; set; }
public Dictionary<string, double> rates { get; set; }
}
To create the data structure:
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(args.Result);
ExchangeData data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ExchangeData>(reader.ReadToEnd());
Hope it helps!
