[SOLVED] JSON string not decodable - (Moved)

[JoeBar]

Hi, i'm trying to implement Imgur API functions in an AutoIt program.

I successfully coded the oAuth2 Authentication and i'm testing some Imgur functions.

 

Example : https://api.imgur.com/3/account/me/images

The string received is like :

{"data":[{"id":"fd6f54s","title":null,"description":null,"datetime":1574502473,"type":"image\/png","animated":false,"width":1147,"height":715,"size":53516,"views":18,"bandwidth":963288,"vote":null,"favorite":false,"nsfw":null,"section":null,"account_url":"ACCOUNT","account_id":ACCOUNTID,"is_ad":false,"in_most_viral":false,"has_sound":false,"tags":[],"ad_type":0,"ad_url":"","edited":"0","in_gallery":false,"deletehash":"d6f5sd4fsf","name":"image","link":"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/fd6f54s.png"}

I'm using JSON.au3 UDF and i don't manage to make it working :

Local $Obj = Json_Decode($hRequestSSL)
Local $Links = Json_Get($Obj, '["data"]["link"]')

The Json_Decode sends in console :

"E:\Portable\Dev\AutoIt3\IncludeP\JSON.au3" (374) : ==> Variable must be of type "Object".:
Return $Object.Keys()
Return $Object^ ERROR

It says it's not an object or i have seen in some UDF that Json_Decode takes a string as parameter.

I don't know what's wrong.

Can you be more specific on where you got the UDF because it seems we are using different versions and I'm seeing different results. For example --

#include <JSON.au3> ; https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/148114-a-non-strict-json-udf-jsmn

$sResponse = '{"data":[{"id":"fd6f54s","title":null,"description":null,"datetime":1574502473,"type":"image\/png","animated":false,"width":1147,"height":715,"size":53516,"views":18,"bandwidth":963288,"vote":null,"favorite":false,"nsfw":null,"section":null,"account_url":"ACCOUNT","account_id":ACCOUNTID,"is_ad":false,"in_most_viral":false,"has_sound":false,"tags":[],"ad_type":0,"ad_url":"","edited":"0","in_gallery":false,"deletehash":"d6f5sd4fsf","name":"image","link":"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/fd6f54s.png"}'
Json_Dump($sResponse)

give me this output --

+-> .data[0].id  =fd6f54s
+-> .data[0].title  =
+-> .data[0].description  =
+-> .data[0].datetime  =1574502473
+-> .data[0].type  =image/png
+-> .data[0].width  =1147
+-> .data[0].height  =715
+-> .data[0].size  =53516
+-> .data[0].views  =18
+-> .data[0].bandwidth  =963288
+-> .data[0].vote  =
+-> .data[0].nsfw  =
+-> .data[0].section  =
+-> .data[0].account_url  =ACCOUNT
+-> .data[0].account_id  =ACCOUNTID
+-> .data[0].edited  =0
+-> .data[0].deletehash  =d6f5sd4fsf
+-> .data[0].name  =image
+-> .data[0].link  =https://i.imgur.com/fd6f54s.png

and the following runs as expected for me --

#include <JSON.au3> ; https://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/148114-a-non-strict-json-udf-jsmn

$sResponse = '{"data":[{"id":"fd6f54s","title":null,"description":null,"datetime":1574502473,"type":"image\/png","animated":false,"width":1147,"height":715,"size":53516,"views":18,"bandwidth":963288,"vote":null,"favorite":false,"nsfw":null,"section":null,"account_url":"ACCOUNT","account_id":ACCOUNTID,"is_ad":false,"in_most_viral":false,"has_sound":false,"tags":[],"ad_type":0,"ad_url":"","edited":"0","in_gallery":false,"deletehash":"d6f5sd4fsf","name":"image","link":"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/fd6f54s.png"}'
$Obj = Json_Decode($sResponse)
$Links = Json_Get($Obj, '["data"][0]["link"]')
ConsoleWrite($Links & @CRLF)
$Links = Json_Get($Obj, ".data[0].link")
ConsoleWrite($Links & @CRLF)

Woks fine when you use proper keys   Json_Dump will lead the way.

#include <json.au3>
$hRequestSSL = '{"data":[{"id":"fd6f54s","title":null,"description":null,"datetime":1574502473,"type":"image\/png","animated":false,"width":1147,"height":715,"size":53516,"views":18,"bandwidth":963288,"vote":null,"favorite":false,"nsfw":null,"section":null,"account_url":"ACCOUNT","account_id":ACCOUNTID,"is_ad":false,"in_most_viral":false,"has_sound":false,"tags":[],"ad_type":0,"ad_url":"","edited":"0","in_gallery":false,"deletehash":"d6f5sd4fsf","name":"image","link":"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/fd6f54s.png"}'
Json_Dump($hRequestSSL)
Local $Obj = Json_Decode($hRequestSSL)
Local $Links = json_get($obj, '.data[0].link')
ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $Links = ' & $Links & @CRLF & '>Error code: ' & @error & @CRLF) ;### Debug Console

Thanks, i badly formatted the Json_Get param 🙄

Of course it is, I did it when I posted that last remark as you can see in the post above that as that is auto-magically generated when we do.
