How can I get json data from ajax?

[Kevin Jiang]

Hi Guys,

I use jQuery post the json data like this:

postData = {'id': 12, 'data': [{'name': 'myname', 'value': 'myvalue'}, {'name': 'myname2', 'value': 'myvalue2'}]};

$.post(url, postData, function(){});

At the backend, I got the post data like following use web.input():

postData = web.input()

print postData

<Storage {'data[0][name]': u'myname', 'data[0][value]': u'myvalue', 'data[1][name]': u'myname2', 'data[1][value]': u'myvalue2', 'id': u'12'}>

I only can get postData.id, how can get the data list directly.

Thanks.

Hi Kevin,

Maybe you could try using web.data() instead of web.input(). You would then need to parse this using the json parser from the standard library.

import json

postData = web.data()

parsedData = json.loads(postData)
