Full name: taxi.stdlib.parseJson

​

Signature

declare extension function <T> parseJson(source: String, type: Type<T>):T

​

Description

Parses a JSON string into the specified type.

This is useful when a field contains a JSON payload encoded as a string (e.g., from a message queue or API response), and you need to deserialize it into a structured type.

Computed fields and functions on the target type are evaluated after parsing.

model Event {
   name : String
   payload : String
   parsed : Payload = parseJson(this.payload, Payload)
}

​

Examples

Parses a JSON string embedded in a model field into a structured type.
