Unable to sequence the objects after parsing

[wilsoncharles]

Im parsing a huge document, and Im trying to put the parsed json in the correct sequence as how it appears in the document. But im unable to do that. Ex., the tables are put at the end of the json without any reference which headers or index it belongs to. How do I link the tables with the currect position of it in the document

The JSON of documents will look like the following:

{
  // ...
  "main-text": [
    {
        "type": "text",
        "text": "some example content",
        // ...
    },
    {
        "type": "table",
        "$ref": "#/tables/0"  // reference to the tables section
    },
  ],
  // ...
  "tables": [
    {
        // ...
    },
  ]
}

The correct sequence you are looking is the content of the main-text list. It includes tables and other floating elements in their correct position. The entry will be a jsonref (the $ref part) which points to the tables array. In the example above, #/tables/0 points to the first element of the tables.
