Hi I'm totally new to backbone, and I'm trying to research the best way to represent the the data below.
Parent Updates can have many children
Child Updates are contained within an array embedded within the parent object.
Child Updates have a parent_id set referencing the parent.
Child Updates can't have any children, so the nesting is only one level deep.
Do I need to use backbone-relational or is that a bit overkill?

How can one split the below json example by different email in a for each loop? So the end result is two completely separate entities keeping there own objects and arrays.
This result comes from a sql dump but the sql connector alters the output, so I've had to parse that output in a for each loop of its own even though there is no loop it's all in one line.

Would like to do a for each so it splits the above like so. The idea then for my to load the result of the for each into a template that takes arrays.

I have reproduced in my environment and got expected results and I followed below process:
I have initialized your input as below:
Then i added for each control and send the output of previous step as input as inside of foreach loop, i have added send email action.
Outputs:
I have got tow jsons in two seperate emails as above.
I've been told that we have some limitations in front end side and we can't use the normal Eloquent json responses, instead I should prepare responses like:
[
{
"title": null,
"type": "animals",
"description": null,
"items": [
{
"type": "animal",
"content": {
"id": 31,
"image": null,
"name": "Asghar's dog",
"age": null,
"race": null,
"species_id": 1,
"reason": [
"Home"
]
}
}
]
},
{
"title": "Recommend",
"type": "recommendations",
"description": null,
"items": [
{
"type": "self_checks",
"content": {
"type": "prompt",
"title": "Self check for Asghar's dog.",
"description": "A short Self check.",
"cta_text": "Los geht’s"
}
},
{
"type": "worm_checks",
"content": {
"title": "Wurm-Vorsorge für Asghar's dog.",
"description": "Finde heraus, wie hoch das Wurm-Risiko deiner Fellnase ist.",
"cta_text": "Los geht’s",
"health_check_payload": {
"url": "https://****.de/check/worms?utm_term=Worms&utm_content=primer",
"title": "Wurm Check"
}
}
}
]
}
]
I need to know how should I structure my code to avoid code repetition and keep it clean. Also, I'm looking for any document regarding this type of responses.
This is my first attempt at parsing nested JSON with Ruby. I need to go through the JSON to pull out specific values for "_id", "name", and "type" for instance. I then need to create a reference table so that I can refer to each "_id" and associated information. I also need to combine information from multiple JSON responses. I've been able to get basic information and have tried a few things I've found online. I just need a little assistance with a starting point. If anyone has any ideas of where to start with this I'd really appreciate it.
Devices JSON response hash. Each device starts with _id.

There is then also a JSON response that lists the functions for each device in the same format above. However instead of "devices"=> it is "items"=> and the beach function is the _id key again.
I'd like to combine function _id tags and descriptions with the device JSON, so I can create a way to send my script "unlock door lock 1" and it subs the number with the _id of the device and the function _id.
You can start with a very rough navigator function like this:
def find_device(data, name, index)
# Filter through the device list...
data['result']['devices'].select do |device|
# ...for matching names.
device.name == name
end[index] # Take indexed entry
end
Where now you can do find_device(data, 'door_lock', 0) to dig up that entry.
Converting "door lock 1" to [ 'door_lock', 0 ] should be pretty trivial:
def to_location(str)
# Split off the name component(s) and index number
*name, index = str.split(/\s+/)
# Reassemble with underscores and -1 to account for 0-index
[ name.join('_'), index.to_i - 1 ]
end
I have this schema for a json response
{
"title": "Products",
"description": "schema for products",
"type": "array",
"properties": {
"id": {
"description": "id of a product",
"type": "integer"
},
"name": {
"description": "name of the product",
"type": "string"
},
"created_at": {
"description": "record created_at",
"type": "string",
"format": "date-time"
},
"updated_at": {
"description": "record updated_at",
"type": "string",
"format": "date-time"
}
},
"required": ["id", "name"]
}
and I want to match this schema with this json
[{
"id": 1,
"name": "Cricket Ball"
}, {
"id": 2,
"name": "Soccer Ball"
}, {
"id": 3,
"name": "football ball"
}, {
"id": 4,
"name": "Basketball ball"
}, {
"id": 5,
"name": "Table Tennis ball"
}, {
"id": 6,
"name": "Tennis ball"
}]
This schema matches the response but it also matches the schema in which the required field is this
"required": ["ids", "names"]
I think the schema is validated against the array and the objects in the array are not validated.
The way you have it set up now, your properties key refers to the array itself, not to each item, and is being ignored (because arrays don't have properties, they just have items). You need to use the items key to validate each item in the array, like so:
{
"title": "Products",
"description": "schema for products",
"type": "array",
"items": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"id": {
"description": "id of a product",
"type": "integer"
},
"name": {
"description": "name of the product",
"type": "string"
},
"created_at": {
"description": "record created_at",
"type": "string",
"format": "date-time"
},
"updated_at": {
"description": "record updated_at",
"type": "string",
"format": "date-time"
}
},
"required": ["id", "name"]
}
}
try map
new_array = response.map{ |k| { 'id': k['properties']['id']['description'], 'name': k['properties']['name']['description'] } }
I'm trying to loop through the results of a JSON response and get the title of each article, however my hosting company mentioned the returned object is not an array, so I can't loop through the articles.
Currently it gives me an undefined on the length of the amount of articles.
How can I loop through the articles and get their titles?
I tried everything below, and finally read somewhere I could use a for-in loop.
So I was checking out this example here: http://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=tryjs_object_for_in
However, I have no idea how to apply this loop on my data to get just the articles and then loop through these and get their properties.

But there I get an error Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token o on line jquery-1.10.2.min.js:4
tried the $.map function
var array = $.map(mydata, function (e) {

});
console.log(array);
console.log('tmp.blog.articles.length: ' + array.blog.articles.length);
Here I get Uncaught TypeError: Cannot use 'in' operator to search for '14' in pages/blog.rain on line jquery-1.10.2.min.js:4
What I'm trying to to is convert the object that is returned by the site and be able to loop through it.
Iterate through the article object, pulling out the keys associated with each article using the method described in the below post:
How to list the properties of a JavaScript object
You could also use the following loop:
for(var article in blog.articles) {
console.log(blog.articles[article].title);
}
