Typescript JSON string to class

Question

Let be this JSON string:

[
    {
        \"id\": 1,
        \"text\": \"Jon Doe\"
    },
    {
        \"id\": 1,
        \"text\": \"Pablo Escobar\"
    }
]         


        

Answer 1

There is a problem when MyObject has 50 or more properties...

Add a constructor in your MyObject class so that it extends your json object.

export class MyObject {
    constructor( json: any )
    {
      $.extend(this, json);
    }
    id : number;
    text : string;

    methodOnMyObject() {...}
}

In your ajax callback, create the MyObject object from your json Object:

let newObject = new MyObject( json );
newObject.methodOnMyObject();

I detailed the solution in that post.
