How to parse a dynamic JSON (without knowing its type)?

[hmassareli]

I dont know if its possible, but I am trying to parse a JSON file that is unknown at the time I am trying to parse it, for example:

first JSON (possible entry) { "glossary": { "title": "example glossary", "GlossDiv": { "title": "S", "GlossList": { "GlossEntry": { "ID": "SGML", "SortAs": "SGML", "GlossTerm": "Standard Generalized Markup Language", "Acronym": "SGML", "Abbrev": "ISO 8879:1986", "GlossDef": { "para": "A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.", "GlossSeeAlso": ["GML", "XML"] } } } } } }

second JSON with an array of objects (possible entry also)

[ { "glossary": { "title": "example glossary", "GlossDiv": { "title": "S", "GlossList": { "GlossEntry": { "ID": "SGML", "SortAs": "SGML", "GlossTerm": "Standard Generalized Markup Language", "Acronym": "SGML", "Abbrev": "ISO 8879:1986", "GlossDef": { "para": "A meta-markup language, used to create markup languages such as DocBook.", "GlossSeeAlso": ["GML", "XML"] } } } } } } ]

It can be done using https://github.com/MaxGraey/as-variant

How? JSON.parse<Variant>(s) doesn't work, and even if it did, how would I then access parts of the graph from there? Even putting Variant within another class doesn't seem to work, because it's not tagged with @json.

An example would be useful. Thanks.

This use case seems more like the example in the other JSON library for AssemblyScript: https://github.com/near/assemblyscript-json#parsing-json

But I really don't want to have two separate JSON libraries in a single project. 😅
