JSON

Note

Note that custom classes (e.g. Vehicle, Character, Prop... etc) or functions are not supported to be stringified and will be nulified. Structs (e.g. Vector, Rotator, Color... etc) are supported and will be parsed/stringified properly!

Static Functions

JSON.stringify

Converts a Lua table into a JSON-formatted string. Useful for sending structured data from Lua scripts to external interfaces such as WebUI environments or server communications.

Example

local playerData = {
    id = 42,
    name = "Alex",
    scores = { 100, 250, 300 },
    position = Vector(1.0, 2.0, 3.0)
}

local jsonString = JSON.stringify(playerData)

-- Returns '{"id":42,"name":"Alex","scores":[100,250,300],"position":{"x":1.0,"y":2.0,"z":3.0}}'

JSON.parse

Converts a JSON-formatted string into a Lua table, enabling easy manipulation and access within Lua scripts. Useful for parsing data received from external services, configuration files, or WebUI inputs.

Example

local jsonString = '{"id":42,"name":"Alex","scores":[100,250,300],"position":{"x":1.0,"y":2.0,"z":3.0}}'

local playerData = JSON.parse(jsonString)

-- Returns Lua table:
-- {
--     id = 42,
--     name = "Alex",
--     scores = {100, 250, 300},
--     position = { x = 1.0, y = 2.0, z = 3.0 }
-- }
