ds_map to struct conversion or read json as struct?

[lunar river]

the title says it.

Ideally, it's a lot better to keep the conversion as it is

ds_map -> json -> ds_map

struct -> json -> struct

(though tbh, you should be using structs anyway)

Is your initial data type a struct, or a ds_map? @lunar river

[lunar river]

my code works with struct and theres like 1000 lines of code using it that way but im also reading json files witch returns a ds_map, so i wana convert it.

[rotund island]

Yeah so

You're using the wrong function I presume

There's two json function sets, one for ds_maps

And one for structs

You have json_encode and json_decode

That's for ds_maps

You'd want

[kind raven]

json_parse

This function parses a JSON string and converts it into a collection of nested arrays and structs. An array is the equivalent of a JSON array and a struct is the equivalent of a JSON object.

Arguments
json: The JSON string to parse
filter_func:  Filter function that processes each item. Don't pass a value or set this to undefined if you only want to set inhibit_string_convert. Syntax: function(key, value) -> new_value
inhibit_string_convert:  Set this to true to disable converting strings into runtime references. Default value: false
