First of all, I'm new in node js. I'm trying to create a REST API which looks like this:
[{
id: 1,
name: 'tushar hasan',
email: 'mtushar**@gmail.com',
devices: {
id: 2,
device_mac: '4A:34:ER:34:12',
relays: [
{
relay_name:"r1",
status:0
},
{
relay_name:"r2",
status:1
}
]
}
}]
But no matter what I'm trying it keeps on showing me below output:
[
{
id: 1,
name: 'tushar hasan',
email: 'mtushar**@gmail.com',
devices: {
id: 2,
device_mac: '4A:34:ER:34:12',
relays: [Array]
}
}
]
I'm providing you source code that's in below:
var x = [];
var data = {id :1, name:'tushar hasan', email:'mtushar**@gmail.com'};
var relay1 = {relay_name:'r1', status:0};
var relay2 = {relay_name:'r2', status:1};
var devices = {id:2, device_mac: '4A:34:ER:34:12'};
devices.relays = [];
devices.relays.push(relay1);
devices.relays.push(relay2);
data.devices = devices;
x.push(data);
console.log(JSON.stringify(x));
console.log(x);
By the way, when I call JSON.stringify(x), it provides me elements inside the relay array property. But without JSON.stringify(x) it doesn't show the elements inside relay property.
Thanks in advance.
Your code is fine. By default, when converting an object to string (like console.log does), the nested arrays will get converted to the text [Array]). The fact that you see the correct output when you call JSON.stringify asserts that it's really there.
