C3 JSON Syntax

Sorry, dumb question, but i need the syntax for the JSON file that will load from the URL, all i have to go off of is:

{"c2array":true,"size":[5,1,1],"data":[[["tiger"]],[["rabbit"]],[["mouse"]],[["lion"]],[["cow"]]]}

but this doesn't load, obviously made for C2, so what is c3 Syntax?

I've tried to use "Load from JSON String" into my array, nothing loads, and i point at that information which is in a json file on my web server.

Thanks

(again, sorry for stupid question here, but can't find any tutorials that contain this info and the manual doesn't contain the layout either)

I also created a json manager plugin that is on the add on page that can load a standard json file and then output a portion of it to a c3 array and c3 dictionary.

Thanks, then i must be doing something really wrong, i have my array, i have it set to load from json, giving it a url of "https://www.cyborgsattack.com/files/ScriptedConversation.json" but this doesn't load anything into my array.

i would have expected that my array.at(0) would have a number 1 in it, but it has 0 in all array elements

Do you see any error messages in the console ?

No, i have switched on the developer console in chrome but nothing stands out, my logic is simple, on layout load, load from Json into array

Are you using the ajax control to get the data string first ?

Once you get the data/string from the ajax call, you load the array with the string you just got.

thanks, that was the steps i was needing and missed, i presumed that the array load would allow me to load from source being a URL to the json, i looked everywhere for this information that you graciously provided to me, sample projects like this short and sweet example really need in the docs, thanks again rhg1968

3 very important things here that need addressed in the documentation

1) how to structure your json data for Construct 3

2) using ajax to capture the data in a download from a url

3) using the array load to then move that data into the array

and a very important 3a, when you load it in, the array is essentially overwritten, not appended to, so a LoadAppend would be nice, although impractical right now based on how it is coded
