Re: YAJL modify JSON property

Doug

YAJL is a JSON parser/generator but it dosn't implement the Javascript
Object (JSO) part of JSON
so you have to move to node.js in order to be able to modify the JSON by
converting the JSON (JSON.parse)
to a Javascript Object, then modify the data/structure and then convert the
result back to JSON (JSON.stringify).

Or in RPG you have to read the JSON into some homebrewed datastructures and
then modify it and then regenerate
the JSON

Or maybe it can be done in SQL with JSON_Modify if that is an option on DB2
for i.

Using YAJL, I can easily parse a JSON string. And I can easily create a
new YAJL object and add properties to it, and then stringify it or write to
the IFS.

But how do you go about changing a property?

Say you want to do this:
- Load a JSON string, creating a node
- Modify a string property value in that node
- Add another string property
- Stringify it again (to store or POST, etc)

None of the example programs seem to show the syntax for changing a JSON.
