Get value from JSON with JSON.NET
I try to use http://www.codeplex.com/Json to extract values from a json object.
I use imdbapi.com and they return json like this:
{"Title": "Star Wars", "Year": "1977", "Rated", "PG", "Released", "25 May 1977", "Genre", "Action, Adventure, Fantasy, Sci-Fi "" Director ":" George Lucas "," Writer "," George Lucas "," Actors ":" Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Alec Guinness, "" Plot ":" Luke Skywalker leaves his home planet, teams up With Other Rebels, and Tries to save Princess Leia from the evil clutch of Darth hrs 1 min "," Rating ":" 8.8 "," Votes ":" 397318 "," ID ":" tt0076759 "," Response ":" True "}
How can I pick up such title, rating, Year? and save it to my object?
This line return correct json:
JObject jObject = JObject.Parse (json);
Now I just need help picking out the data I want. any suggestions?
Solution 1:
This should help you http://james.newtonking.com/pages/json-net.aspx
string json = @"{
""Name"": ""Apple"",
""Expiry"": new Date(1230422400000),
""Price"": 3.99,
""Sizes"": [
""Small"",
""Medium"",
""Large""
]
}";
JObject o = JObject.Parse(json);
//This will be "Apple"
string name = (string)o["Name"];
Solution 2:
JObject API documentation
I believe you are interested in the .Item[key] collection that returns JTokens.

Solution 3:
class TypeHere{
string Name {get;set;}
}
TypeHere object = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject< TypeHere >(jsonString)

object.Name;
