Hi,

 

Iam having a nested multifield and values are getting stored as json format in the jcr:content.However, '\' character is getting appended for the nested multifield values.

Json Values:

{"title":"page1","description":"this is description","ctaLinks":["{\"linkpath\":\"/content/maximintegrated/en/products\",\"linktitle\":\"title1\"}","{\"linkpath\":\"/content/maximintegrated/en\",\"linktitle\":\"title2\"}"],"ctaButtons":["{\"buttontitle\":\"button1\",\"buttonurl\":\"/content/maximintegrated\",\"btnStyle\":\"btn-primary\"}"]}

 

 

Can anyone say how to remove these characters in java and store it in json object.

 

Thanks,

Mahi

Hi @maheswariv26797 

Please use below code snippet to parse the given JSON string & to construct result JSON object.

 

JsonObject finalJson = new JsonObject();
JsonParser jsonParser = new JsonParser();

JsonObject jsonObject = jsonParser.parse("{\"title\":\"page1\",\"description\":\"this is description\",\"ctaLinks\":[\"{\\\"linkpath\\\":\\\"/content/maximintegrated/en/products\\\",\\\"linktitle\\\":\\\"title1\\\"}\",\"{\\\"linkpath\\\":\\\"/content/maximintegrated/en\\\",\\\"linktitle\\\":\\\"title2\\\"}\"],\"ctaButtons\":[\"{\\\"buttontitle\\\":\\\"button1\\\",\\\"buttonurl\\\":\\\"/content/maximintegrated\\\",\\\"btnStyle\\\":\\\"btn-primary\\\"}\"]}").getAsJsonObject();

if(jsonObject!= null) {
    if (jsonObject.has("title")) {
        finalJson.addProperty("title", jsonObject.get("title").getAsString());
    }

    if (jsonObject.has("description")) {
        finalJson.addProperty("description", jsonObject.get("description").getAsString());
    }

    if (jsonObject.has("ctaLinks")) {
        JsonArray ctaLinksJsonArr = jsonObject.get("ctaLinks").getAsJsonArray();

        if (ctaLinksJsonArr != null) {
            JsonArray resultCTALinksJsonArr = new JsonArray();
            JsonObject ctaLinkJson;
            
            for (int index = 0; index < ctaLinksJsonArr.size(); index++) {
                ctaLinkJson = jsonParser.parse(ctaLinksJsonArr.get(index).getAsString()).getAsJsonObject();
    
                if(ctaLinkJson!= null) {
                    if (ctaLinkJson.has("linkpath")) {
                        ctaLinkJson.addProperty("linkpath", ctaLinkJson.get("linkpath").getAsString());
                    }

                    if (ctaLinkJson.has("btnstyle")) {
                        ctaLinkJson.addProperty("btnstyle", ctaLinkJson.get("btnstyle").getAsString());
                    }

                    resultCTALinksJsonArr.add(ctaLinkJson);
                }
            }
            
            finalJson.add("ctaLinks", resultCTALinksJsonArr);
        }
    }

    if (jsonObject.has("ctaButtons")) {
        JsonArray ctaButtonsJsonArr = jsonObject.get("ctaButtons").getAsJsonArray();

        if(ctaButtonsJsonArr!= null) {
            JsonArray resultCTAButtonsJsonArr = new JsonArray();
            JsonObject ctaLButtonJson;
            
            for (int index = 0; index < ctaButtonsJsonArr.size(); index++) {
                ctaLButtonJson = jsonParser.parse(ctaButtonsJsonArr.get(index).getAsString()).getAsJsonObject();

                if(ctaLButtonJson!= null) {
                    if (ctaLButtonJson.has("buttontitle")) {
                        ctaLButtonJson.addProperty("buttontitle", ctaLButtonJson.get("buttontitle").getAsString());
                    }

                    if (ctaLButtonJson.has("buttonurl")) {
                        ctaLButtonJson.addProperty("buttonurl", ctaLButtonJson.get("buttonurl").getAsString());
                    }

                    if (ctaLButtonJson.has("buttontitle")) {
                        ctaLButtonJson.addProperty("buttontitle", ctaLButtonJson.get("buttontitle").getAsString());
                    }
                    resultCTAButtonsJsonArr.add(ctaLButtonJson);
                }
            }

            finalJson.add("ctaButtons", resultCTAButtonsJsonArr);
        }
    }
}
