ViewsHow to remove unwated characters from api response
I am creating api in NodeJS in api response I am getting / this characters
Below is my api response:
static async getAdminOrders(logId, callback) {
logger(logId, `Getting all orders of the stylist ${logId}`);
const queryStr = 'SELECT order_details FROM stylist_order';
Util.executeQuery(queryStr,logId).then((result) => {
callback(false, result || [], Util.statusCodes.SUCCESS);
var str = JSON.stringify(result);
// Remove \ from the string
var str1 = str.replace(/\\/g,'');
// Convert updated string back to object
var newObj = JSON.parse(str1);
console.log(newObj);
}).catch((error) => {
logger(logId, error);
callback(true, { message: 'Failed to fetch order detials' }, Util.statusCodes.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
});
}
It is not returning object back after removing unwanted characters in console but when I am doing console.log(str1) its returning string without /. Issue is newObj is not showing.
Someone let me know what I am doing wrong.

The backslash escapes the " character, so they are not really unwanted. When you just remove them, you could potentially damage the payload, since JSON.parse() can't read the string properly anymore.
I would instead try to parse the data string itself like this:
static async getAdminOrders(logId, callback) {
logger(logId, `Getting all orders of the stylist ${logId}`);
const queryStr = 'SELECT order_details FROM stylist_order';
Util.executeQuery(queryStr,logId).then((result) => {
callback(false, result || [], Util.statusCodes.SUCCESS);
for(let i = 0; i < result.data; i++){
result.data[i].order_details = JSON.parse(result.data[i].order_details)
}
console.log(result);
}).catch((error) => {
logger(logId, error);
callback(true, { message: 'Failed to fetch order detials' }, Util.statusCodes.INTERNAL_SERVER_ERROR);
});
}
