i have nested json structure not defined. can different each time run since reading remote file. need convert json map of type map[string, any]. tried json4s , jackson parsers don't seem solve issue have. know how can achieve this?
example string:
{"body":{ "method":"string", "events":"string", "clients":"string", "parameter":"string", "channel":"string", "metadata":{ "meta1":"string", "meta2":"string", "meta3":"string" } }, "timestamp":"string"} the level of nesting can arbitrary , not predefined.
use case:
have map[string,any] need store in file backup. convert json string , store in file. everytime new data, need json file, convert map again , perform computation. cannot store map in memory since lose if job fails.
need solution convert json string original map had before converted it.
i tried following method json4s 3.2.11 , works:
import org.json4s._ import org.json4s.jackson.jsonmethods._ //... def jsonstrtomap(jsonstr: string): map[string, any] = { implicit val formats = org.json4s.defaultformats parse(jsonstr).extract[map[string, any]] } maybe didn't define implicit val of type formats? note don't need have implicit val within every , each method long it's findable in scope.
