Hello Fred,
Thanks for the answer but the problem remains.
The "render :text => my_json" part is just a debug line I added.
I'm interested in manipulating the json data before sending an answer to
the browser.
I've done what you said but my_json.inspect() returns the same output.
>From what I gathered the my_json is returned as a String object instead
of an Hash.
Example:
(rdb:5) my_json = ActiveSupport::JSON.decode(params["_json"])
"%7B%22name%22%3A%20%22Violet%22%2C%20%22occupation%22%3A%20%22character%22%2C%2
0%22age%22%3A%2025%7D"
(rdb:5) my_json.class
String
If I use the same json string directly in the controller in Rails the
decode works so it must have something to do with the way I'm creating
the Ajax request, but I still don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Example:
(rdb:5) my_json2 = ActiveSupport::JSON.decode("{name: 'Violet',
occupation: 'character', age: 25 }")
{"occupation"=>"character", "name"=>"Violet", "age"=>25}
(rdb:5) my_json2.class
Hash
Best regards,
Migrate
