Activesupport::JSON.decode crashes on this,
- by Waheedi
I wonder why i cant decode this json string, all what i want is to convert this to a proper Ruby hash, anyone have an idea? i think the array of objects is cracking it ?
Parameters:
{"{\"origins\":"=>{"{\"origin\":\"this\"},{\"origin\":\"dont\"},{\"origin\":\"dont me please\"},{\"origin\":\"and me please\"},{\"origin\":\"dont\"},{\"origin\":\"dont\"},{\"origin\":\"dont\"},{\"origin\":\"okay\"},{\"origin\":\"dont\"},{\"origin\":\"go\"},{\"origin\":\"go\"}"=>{",\"url\":\"file:///Users/waheed/Desktop/untitled.html\",\"apik\":\"helloapik\",\"host\":\"http://localhost:3000/\"}"=>nil}}}
now in my javascript im doing this
//this is the object im trying to send over xmlhttprequest and im using JSON.org library which has the stringify method
function tObject(origins,url,apik){
this.origins=origins; //this is an array of string
this.url=url;
this.apik=apik;
}
var t = new tObject(myStringArr,"www.foo.com","welcome guys");
ajax = new Ajax(); //this is an xhcon class you dont worry about it url here http://xkr.us/code/javascript/XHConn/
ajax.connect("http://localhost:3000/","POST",JSON.stringify(t), callback);
in my rails app the parameters that has been posted looks like this:
Parameters: {"{\"origins\":"={"{\"origin\":\"this\"},{\"origin\":\"yo yo\"},{\"origin\":\" me please\"},{\"origin\":\"and me please\"},{\"origin\":\"here\"},{\"origin\":\"and again\"},{\"origin\":\"again\"},{\"origin\":\"okay\"},{\"origin\":\"yes\"},{\"origin\":\"go\"},{\"origin\":\"go\"}"={",\"url\":\"www.foo.com\",\"apik\":\"welcome guys\"}"=nil}}}
why it results with nil at the last ? i've tried to decode it but it could not work because it blame the string is not json string ?!!?
TIA, waheedi
