I have trouble accessing nested JSON with readJSON
oldJson string:
{"branch":{"type-0.2":{"version":"0.2","rc":"1","rel":"1","extras":"1"}}}
I try to access it as in example https://jenkins.io/doc/pipeline/steps/pipeline-utility-steps/#readjson-read-json-from-files-in-the-workspace
assert oldJson["rc"] == '1'
but it fails. I think it because "rc" is nested in "type-02". How could I access it?
You can always get the value of a nested element by its nested key using bracket notation or dot notation.
stage('Read-JSON') {
steps {
script {
def oldJson = '{"branch":{"type-0.2":{"version":"0.2","rc":"1","rel":"1","extras":"1"}}}'
def props = readJSON text: oldJson
println(props['branch']['type-0.2']['rc'])
\\ or println(props.'branch'.'type-0.2'.'rc')
}
}
}
Output:
[Pipeline] stage
[Pipeline] { (Read-JSON)
[Pipeline] script
[Pipeline] {
[Pipeline] readJSON
[Pipeline] echo
1
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // script
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // stage
