skript-json

Idiomatic JSON integration for Skript. Convert JSON into list variables and vice versa.

---

Effect Map JSON to Variable

Copies JSON formatted text into a list variable. Existing entries in the list variable are not deleted.

Syntax

(map|copy) [the] json [(of|from)] %text% to [the] [var[iable]] %list variable%"

---

Expression JSON Form => text

Converts a list variable into JSON form.

Syntax

[the] [serialized] json (form|representation) of %list variable%
%list variable%'[s] [serialized] json (form|representation)

---

Structure

If the following JSON were mapped to a variable {json::*}

{
  "foo": 15,
  "bar": "test",
  "baz": {
    "foobar": [
      {
        "quux": false
      }
    ]
  }
}

the following assertions would be true:

{json::foo} is 15
{json::bar} is "test"
{json::baz} is true                    # special case
{json::baz::foobar} is true            # special case
{json::baz::foobar::1} is true         # special case
{json::baz::foobar::1::quux} is false

The variables marked # special case contain nested JSON objects and are true so Skript can properly loop through the variable. These variables (like {json::baz}, not list variables like {json::baz::*}) can be deleted and the structure will still properly serialize into JSON.
