How can I populate my C# object with the JSON object passed via AJAX?
This is the JSON object passed to a C# web method from the page using JSON.stringify:
{
"user": {
"name": "asdf",
"teamname": "b",
"email": "c",
"players": ["1", "2"]
}
}
The C# web method that receives the JSON object:
[WebMethod]
public static void SaveTeam(Object user)
{
}
The C# class that represents the object structure of JSON Object passed in to the web method
public class User
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string teamname { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
public Array players { get; set; }
}
A good way to use JSON in C# is with JSON.NET
Quick Starts & API Documentation from JSON.NET - Official site help you work with it.
An example of how to use it:
public class User
{
public User(string json)
{
JObject jObject = JObject.Parse(json);
JToken jUser = jObject["user"];
name = (string) jUser["name"];
teamname = (string) jUser["teamname"];
email = (string) jUser["email"];
players = jUser["players"].ToArray();
}
public string name { get; set; }
public string teamname { get; set; }
public string email { get; set; }
public Array players { get; set; }
}
// Use
private void Run()
{
string json = @"{""user"":{""name"":""asdf"",""teamname"":""b"",""email"":""c"",""players"":[""1"",""2""]}}";
User user = new User(json);
Console.WriteLine("Name : " + user.name);
Console.WriteLine("Teamname : " + user.teamname);
Console.WriteLine("Email : " + user.email);
Console.WriteLine("Players:");
foreach (var player in user.players)
Console.WriteLine(player);
}
