Description

Returned by JSON.parse, JSONParseResult contains decoded JSON or error information if JSON source not successfully parsed. You can check if JSON source was successfully parsed with if json_result.error == OK.

Property Descriptions

Setterset_error(value)
Getterget_error()

The error type if JSON source was not successfully parsed. See @GlobalScope ERR_* constants.


  • int error_line
Setterset_error_line(value)
Getterget_error_line()

The line number where the error occurred if JSON source was not successfully parsed.


Setterset_error_string(value)
Getterget_error_string()

The error message if JSON source was not successfully parsed. See @GlobalScope ERR_* constants.


Setterset_result(value)
Getterget_result()

A Variant containing the parsed JSON. Use typeof() to check if it is what you expect. For example, if JSON source starts with curly braces ({}) a Dictionary will be returned, if JSON source starts with braces ([]) an Array will be returned.

Be aware that the JSON specification does not define integer or float types, but only a number type. Therefore, parsing a JSON text will convert all numerical values to float types.

Note that JSON objects do not preserve key order like Godot dictionaries, thus you should not rely on keys being in a certain order if a dictionary is constructed from JSON. In contrast, JSON arrays retain the order of their elements:*

  1. var p = JSON.parse('["hello", "world", "!"]')
  2. if typeof(p.result) == TYPE_ARRAY:
  3. print(p.result[0]) # prints 'hello'
  4. else:
  5. print("unexpected results")
