on vb.net I am creating a person class and the resulting object has the fields Id, Name, Age. Then, using JSON.NET, I convert that object into a .json file and save it on the hard disk, but when I open it, everything remains in a single line like this:
{"Id":4,"Nombre":"Juan Perez","Edad":18}
I would like it to appear like this
{
"Id":4,
"Nombre":"Juan Perez",
"Edad":18
}
I mean skip lines ... I need help with this ... thanks
Here is an example:
class:
public class Account
{
public string Email { get; set; }
public bool Active { get; set; }
public DateTime CreatedDate { get; set; }
public IList<string> Roles { get; set; }
}
Using the appropriate "formatting":
Account account = new Account
{
Email = "[email protected]",
Active = true,
CreatedDate = new DateTime(2013, 1, 20, 0, 0, 0, DateTimeKind.Utc),
Roles = new List<string>
{
"User",
"Admin"
}
};
string json = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(account, Formatting.Indented);
// {
// "Email": "[email protected]",
// "Active": true,
// "CreatedDate": "2013-01-20T00:00:00Z",
// "Roles": [
// "User",
// "Admin"
// ]
// }
Console.WriteLine(json);
