I actually have two questions, both are probably simple, but for some odd reason I cant figure it out... I've worked with JSON 100s of times before too! but here is the JSON in question:
{"69256":{
"streaminfo":{
"stream_ID":"1025",
"sourceowner_ID":"2",
"sourceowner_avatar":"http:\/\/content.nozzlmedia.com\/images\/sourceowner_avatar2.jpg",
"sourceownertype_ID":"1",
"stream_name":"Twitter",
"streamtype":"Social media"
"appsarray":[]
},
"item":{
"headline":"Charboy",
"main_image":"http:\/\/content.nozzlmedia.com\/images\/author_avatar173212.jpg",
"summary":"ate a tomato and avocado for dinner...",
"nozzl_captured":"2010-05-12 23:02:12",
"geoarray":[{
"state":"OR",
"county":"Multnomah",
"city":"Portland",
"neighborhood":"Downtown",
"zip":"97205",
"street":"462 SW 11th Ave",
"latitude":"45.5219",
"longitude":"-122.682"
}],
"full_content":"ate a tomato and avocado for dinner tonight.
such tasty foods. just enjoyable.",
"body_text":"ate a tomato and avocado for dinner tonight.
such tasty foods. just enjoyable.",
"author_name":"Charboy",
"author_avatar":"http:\/\/content.nozzlmedia.com\/images\/author_avatar173212.jpg",
"fulltext_url":"http:\/\/twitter.com\/charboy\/statuses\/13889868936",
"leftovers":{
"twitter_id":"tag:search.twitter.com,2005:13889868936",
"date":"2010-05-13T02:59:59Z",
"location":"iPhone: 45.521866,-122.682262"
},
"wordarray":{
"0":"ate",
"1":"tomato",
"2":"avocado",
"3":"dinner",
"4":"tonight",
"5":"tasty",
"6":"foods",
"7":"just",
"8":"enjoyable",
"9":"Charboy",
"11":"Twitter",
"13":"state:OR",
"14":"county:Multnomah, OR",
"15":"city:Portland, OR",
"16":"neighborhood:Downtown",
"17":"zip:97205"
}
}
}
}
Question 1:
How do I loop through each item (69256) when the number is random? e.g. item 1 is 123
, item2 is 646
? Like, for example, a normal JSON feed would have something like:
{'item':{'blah':'lorem'},'item':{'blah':'ipsum'}}
the JS would be like console.log(item.blah)
to return lorem
then ipsum
in a loop
How do I do it when i dont know the first item of the object?
Question 2:
How do I select items from the geoarray
object? I tried:
json.test.item.geoarray.latitude
and
json.test.item.geoarray['latitude']
