I want to save part of my html code into json as a file then recap back the html codes for editing. Any idea how can i do it?
see this link on w3school https://www.w3schools.com/code/tryit.asp?filename=FR0BHTAPG78A
var myObj, myJSON, myText, obj;
myText = document.getElementById("xx").innerHTML;
myObj = {innerHTML:"yyy"};
myObj.innerHTML = myText;
myJSON = JSON.stringify(myObj);
You can use this following snippet to convert HTML into JSON string
var HtmlToJsonString = JSON.stringify($("#TextBoxesGroup").html());
You can stored this JSON string into database and edit time you decode it and put on UI page.
function htmlToJson(div,obj){
if(!obj){obj=[]}
var tag = {}
tag['tagName']=div.tagName
tag['children'] = []
for(var i = 0; i< div.children.length;i++){
tag['children'].push(htmlToJson(div.children[i]))
}
for(var i = 0; i< div.attributes.length;i++){
var attr= div.attributes[i]
tag['@'+attr.name] = attr.value
}
return tag
}
What you want to do is called serializing.
// This gives you an HTMLElement object
var element = document.getElementById('TextBoxesGroup');
// This gives you a string representing that element and its content
var html = element.outerHTML;
// This gives you a JSON object that you can send with jQuery.ajax's `data`
// option, you can rename the property to whatever you want.
var data = { html: html };
// This gives you a string in JSON syntax of the object above that you can
// send with XMLHttpRequest.
var json = JSON.stringify(data);
var html = $('#TextBoxesGroup')[0].outerHTML;
var temp = {"html":html};
var obj = JSON.parse(temp);
console.log(obj); // shows json object
You can use any server side language to make a json from obj.
i use recursive function to handle it
from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
dic = dict()
itt = 0
def list_tree_names(node):
global itt
for child in node.contents:
try:
dic.update({child.name +"/"+ str(itt): child.attrs})
itt += 1
list_tree_names(node=child)
except:
dic.update({"text" +"/"+ str(itt): child})
itt += 1
soup = BeautifulSoup(data, "html.parser")
data is the html text
list_tree_names(soup)
print(dic)
you can see json file in https://github.com/celerometis/html2json
