When you need to work with the Json.NET types and their methods rather than with the method-less "property-bag" instances ConvertFrom-Json constructs.When the limitations of PowerShell's JSON parsing must be overcome (lack of support for empty key names and keys that differ in letter case only).Given PowerShell's built-in support for JSON parsing - via the ConvertFrom-Json and ConvertTo-Json cmdlets - there is usually no reason to resort to third-party libraries (directly ), except in the following cases: Namely why I can't return things like path or parent, but can see it when I debug in VSCode.ĭbc's answer contains helpful background information, and makes it clear that calling the NewtonSoft Json.NET library from PowerShell is cumbersome. Is it possible to determine the root parent? Also, any help in understanding my comments in the script would be great. I think I'm not understanding some fundamentals here. So above, I'd like to know that the item I'm looking at (Array2Object1Str1) belongs to the Array2 root parent. I'd like to be able to find the name of the root parent for any given position. #How can I find out what the root parent (Array2) is for a property? Is property even the right word? $nsObj.Array2 #1st object has a Path property of "Array2.Array2Object1Str1" Great!įoreach( $o in $() ) #? Why can't I see the Path property like when just output $nsObj.Array2 ? $nsObj.Array2 #This does return, maybe because has object with kv pairs Maybe because it contains no key:value pairs? "Array2Object1Str2": "Object in list, string newtonSoft way
"Array2Object1Str1": "Object in list, string 1", Take the below PowerShell script: $json = [
I making a foray into the world of JSON parsing and NewtonSoft and I'm confused, to say the least.
