CreateJsonStructure

This is a tool useful for creating JSON structure for data gathering. It is useful when trying to read off-chain data in solidity, or when building data for merkle trees, it is very useful when trying to efficiently handle data.

Requirements

• Solidity v0.8.0^

Installation

forge install PaulElisha/CreateJsonStructure

Functions

• startMainObject - Entry point to creating a Json data.
• startObject - Entry point to creating an object.
• addKeyValuePairWith - Used for add key-value pair.
• startNestedObjectInArray - Used for creating nested object in an array.
• addArrayElementWith - Used to add array element.
• StartArray - Used to start an array.

To every 'start' method, ensure you close them with the required functions.

Usage

• Create a target file in your script folder. In this case, I used this path: "script/target/input.json"

• Assign the target file to a variable like this: string private constant INPUT_PATH = "script/target/input.json";

• Copy the fs_permissions configuration in the foundry.toml file and paste in your foundry config file to enable write permission to access your project directory, it works for read permission too.

pragma solidity ^0.8.0;

import "forge-std/Script.sol";
import "forge-std/StdJson.sol";
import "../src/CreateJsonStruct.sol";

contract CreateJsonStructScript is Script {
    CreateJsonStruct createJsonStruct = new CreateJsonStruct();
    string private constant INPUT_PATH = "script/target/input.json";

    function run() public {
        string memory jsonObject = getJson();
        vm.writeFile(INPUT_PATH, jsonObject);
    }

    function getJson() public returns (string memory jsonObject) {
        createJsonStruct.startMainObject();

        createJsonStruct.startObject("kaia");

        createJsonStruct.addKeyValuePairWithString("network", "testnet");
        createJsonStruct.addKeyValuePairWithString("chainid", "1001");

        createJsonStruct.startArray("developers");
        createJsonStruct.addArrayElementWithString("xx");
        createJsonStruct.addArrayElementWithString("oo");
        createJsonStruct.addArrayElementWithString("ppp");
        createJsonStruct.closeArray();

        createJsonStruct.closeObject();

        createJsonStruct.startObject("base");
        createJsonStruct.addKeyValuePairWithString("network", "testnet");
        createJsonStruct.addKeyValuePairWithString("chainid", "8354");
        createJsonStruct.closeObject();
        createJsonStruct.closeMainObject();

        jsonObject = createJsonStruct.getJson();

        console.log("file has been written to script/target/input.json");

    }
}

Output

{
    "kaia": {
        "network": "testnet",
        "chainid": "1001",
        "developers": [
            "xx",
            "oo",
            "ppp"
        ]
    },
    "base": {
        "network": "testnet",
        "chainid": "8354"
    }
}
