Mikrotik JSON Parser

Based on Chupakabra303's JSON parser for RouterOS.

ℹ️Consider using a much faster built-in :deserialize command.

⚠️As of hAP AC with RouterOS 7.21.3 both solutions are capable of parsing 60KB-1byte of data. See also #1.

Usage:

# Load library (set library functions to global variables)
/system script run "JParseFunctions"; global JSONLoad; global JSONLoads; global JSONUnload

# Parse data and print `ParsedResults[0].ParsedText` value
global content "{\"ParsedResults\": [{\"ParsedText\": \"Hello, world!\"}]}"
put ([$JSONLoads $content]->"ParsedResults"->0->"ParsedText")
set content

# or load JSON from file
put ([$JSONLoad "tmp"]->"ParsedResults"->0->"ParsedText")

# Unload library (clear global variables)
$JSONUnload

Using built-in :deserialize

Since RouterOS 7.13beta Mikrotik made this project obsolete by adding :serialize and :deserialize commands for converting values to/from JSON.

# Parse data and print `ParsedResults[0].ParsedText` value
global content "{\"ParsedResults\": [{\"ParsedText\": \"Hello, world!\"}]}"
put ([deserialize from=json value=$content]->"ParsedResults"->0->"ParsedText")
set content

# or load JSON from file
put ([deserialize from=json [/file/get "tmp" contents]]->"ParsedResults"->0->"ParsedText")
