Reading C# dictionary in Javascript
I have a dictionary variable in C# (ASP.NET). I want to send this data to Javascript. I am using this code to serialize it and send to javascript.
Dictionary<string, string> chat;
chat = new Dictionary<string, string>();
chat.Add("Sam", "How are you?");
chat.Add("Rita", "I am good");
var serialize = new System.Web.Script.Serialization.JavaScriptSerializer();
Response.Write(serialize.Serialize(chat));
On the Javascript page, I am calling this page using this;
$.ajax({
url: "TextChatCalls/getChat.aspx",
type: "POST",
context: document.body,
success: function (response) {
var Chats = response.split('\n')[0];
alert(Chats);
}
});
The value in Chats var is {"Sam":"How are you?","Rita":"I am good"}
I don't know how do I read this value in Chats. Can I anyhow convert this into a 2D array and read it as array[0][0], array[1][0] etc. ?
Thanks.
E开发者_开发问答DIT: One more confusion is that, the response object, returned from ASP.NET, contains
{"Sam":"How are you?","Rita":"I am good"}
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

<body>
<form name="form1" method="post" action="getChat.aspx?Id=141755" id="form1">
<div>
<input type="hidden" name="__VIEWSTATE" id="__VIEWSTATE" value="/wEPDwULLTE2MTY2ODcyMjlkZJctiKZK4rXVndR3mbGssIarCrOF" />
</div>
<div>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
And not just {"Sam":"How are you?","Rita":"I am good"} as expected. And hence I have to split the response object by var Chats = response.split('\n')[0]; which makes it an string!
You read like this:
alert(Chats["Sam"]);
(so like a C# Dictionary :-). You read/write to it using something like Chats["propertyName"])
or, to go through each value:
for (var c in Chats)
{
if (Chats.hasOwnProperty(c))
{
alert(c + ' ' + Chats[c]);
}
}
Note that this is different than C#. In C# c would contain a KeyValuePair<> containing both the key and the value. In Javascript c is only the key and to get the value you have to use Chats[c].
(the reasoning for hasOwnProperty is here http://yuiblog.com/blog/2006/09/26/for-in-intrigue/)
Now... If you really want to split it:
var array = [];
for (var c in Chats)
{
if (Chats.hasOwnProperty(c))
{
array.push([c, Chats[c]]);
}
}
Just add the data type json to your ajax request
$.ajax({
url: "TextChatCalls/getChat.aspx",
type: "POST",
dataType: "json"
context: document.body,
success: function (response) {
// do something with response
});
This will make response a javascript object that you can access like this
alert(response["sam"]) //How are you?
to split that up into a 2d array just do this
var Chats = [];
for ( k in response ){
Chats[Chats.length] = [k, response[k]];
}
I guess the important point here is that you properly understand what is going on on the JavaScript client side. The datatype that arrives on the JavaScript client side is a JSON string. JSON (= JavaScript Object Notation) can directly be interpreted by JavaScript.
A JavaScript object looks as follows:
var anObject = { name: "Sam", surname: "abc"};
You can access the properties of a JavaScript object either through a somewhat Dictionary-similar way like
anObject["name"] //will get "Sam"
or directly (property notation)
anObject.name
Instead a similar JSON string would look like
var aJsonString = '{ "name": "Sam", "surname": "abc"}'
Now to convert the JSON string to a JavaScript object you need to parse it. jQuery does this already for you, otherwise you can invoke JSON.parse(aJsonString) and you'll get a valid JavaScript object.
Here I did a quick example: http://jsbin.com/adejev/2/edit
For ASP.NET Core, I used this inside the cshtml file. Basically I rebuilt the entire Dictionary into Javascript. The reason for this approach is because I have subfunctions in Javascript that won't be able to call the server model functions with dynamic parameters on events like keypress.
var ModelZxcvWarnLookup = {};
@foreach (var kvp in Model.View.ZxcvbnWarningMsgLocalization)
{
@:ModelZxcvWarnLookup['@Html.Raw(@kvp.Key)'] = '@Html.Raw(@kvp.Value)';
}
Inspecting the html page fetched by the browser:
var ModelZxcvWarnLookup = {};
ModelZxcvWarnLookup["Straight rows of keys are easy to guess"] = "Chinese Straight rows of keys are easy to guess";
ModelZxcvWarnLookup["Short keyboard patterns are easy to guess"] = "Chinese Short keyboard patterns are easy to guess";
ModelZxcvWarnLookup['Repeats like "aaa" are easy to guess'] = 'Repeats like "aaa" are easy to guess';
