8.7 JavaScript Object Notation (JSON)
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) is an open standard file format, and data interchange format, that uses plain text to store and transmit data objects consisting of attribute-value pairs and array data types. It is a very common data format, with a diverse range of applications, such as serving as replacement for XML in AJAX systems.
JSON is a language-independent data format where string content is assumed to be encoded in UTF-8 (or 16 and 24).
Legato allows for the loading and reading of JSON Objects.
Items are accessed by a name in the following syntax:
obj.name[n].name[n]. ...
Where:
| obj | An arbitrary string as the the top object node. All objects must be preceded with “obj.” or “obj[n].” | |
| name | Is the name of the node. | |
| [n] | Specifies an optional zero-based item number in a list. |
