dotdict expression not resolved

[HolQue]

JSON file:

// composite data structure
"params" : [{"dict_1_key_1" : "dict_1_key_1 value",
             "dict_1_key_2" : ["dict_1_key_2 value 1", "dict_1_key_2 value 2"]},
            //
            {"dict_2_key_1" : "dict_2_key_1 value",
             "dict_2_key_2" : {"dict_2_A_key_1" : "dict_2_A_key_1 value", "dict_2_A_key_2" : "dict_2_A_key_2 value"}}],
//
// access to single elements of composite data structure
//
// a) standard notation
"dict_1_key_2_value_2_standard" : ${params}[0]['dict_1_key_2'][1]
// b) dotdict notation
"dict_1_key_2_value_2_dotdict" : ${params.0.dict_1_key_2.1}

Outcome:

a) standard notation works
b) dotdict notation causes: The variable '${params}['0']['dict_1_key_2']['1']' is not available

Seems that also indices are assumed to be key names as strings.

But the element after a dot must be interpreted depending on the data type (list or dictionary) of the element before the dot.

I would expect that both notations result in the same value: 'dict_1_key_2 value 2'

Hi Son,

this is actually tricky. In case of an array the 0 in ${params.0.dict_1_key_2.1} need to be considered as integer, if it is a data structure it can be a string. Unfortunately the dot syntax is ambiguous here.
It should work independent of the data type to be user friendly.

Thank you,
Thomas

Hello Thomas, Hello Holger,

This enhancement was implemented in the commit 45f79386 on stabi branch (namsonx/task/stabi_branch)

Thank you,

Retest result:

dotdict notation works now.
