I have a JSON string that contains nested values.
It looks something like this:
"[{"listed_count":1720,"status":{"retweet_count":78}}]"I am interested in extracting the value of retweet_count.
Currently, I am using Jackson to work with this data.
The code snippet below is currently outputting "{retweet_count=78}" instead of just 78. I'm wondering if there is a way to access nested values similar to how it is done in PHP, for example status->retweet_count. Thank you!
import java.io.IOException;
import java.util.List;
import java.util.Map;
import org.codehaus.jackson.map.ObjectMapper;
import org.codehaus.jackson.type.TypeReference;
public class tests {
public static void main(String [] args) throws IOException{
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
List <Map<String, Object>> followers = mapper.readValue("[{\"listed_count\":1720,\"status\":{\"retweet_count\":78}}]]", new TypeReference<List <Map<String, Object>>>() {});
System.out.println(followers.get(0).get("status"));
}
}
