Nested Json String to DataTable

问题:

I Need to convert the following Json string to DataTable.

{  
   "pnr":"1234567890",
   "train_num":"12311",
   "train_name":"HWH DLIKLK MAI",
   "doj":"23-12-2013",
   "from_station":
   {  
      "code":"DLI",
      "name":"Delhi"
   },
   "to_station":
   {  
      "code":"KLK",
      "name":"Kalka"
   }
}

In DataTable I need to Display

train_num
train_name
doj
from_station(name only)
to_station(name only)

What i have till now is,

public class Train
{
public string train_num { get; set; }
public string train_name { get; set; }
public string doj { get; set; }
public from_station from_station { get; set; }
public to_station to_station { get; set; }
}

public class from_station
{
public string code { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
}
public class to_station
{
public string code { get; set; }
public string name { get; set; }
}

public static DataTable ToDataTable(Train data)
{
    PropertyDescriptorCollection props =
    TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(Train));
    DataTable table = new DataTable();

    for (int i = 0; i < props.Count; i++)
    {
        PropertyDescriptor prop = props[i];
        table.Columns.Add(prop.Name, prop.PropertyType);
    }
    object[] values = new object[props.Count];

        for (int i = 0; i < values.Length; i++)
        {
            values[i] = props[i].GetValue(data);
        }
        table.Rows.Add(values);
    return table;
}

var data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Train>(JsonString);
    dt = ToDataTable(data);
    ui_grdVw_EmployeeDetail1.DataSource = dt;
    ui_grdVw_EmployeeDetail1.DataBind();

I am getting only three columns in datatable

train_num
train_name
doj

You need to tweak your DataTable conversion method to be more Generic. Then pass for it the data shaped as you want it to be.

public static DataTable ToDataTable<T>( IList<T> data)
{
    PropertyDescriptorCollection props =
        TypeDescriptor.GetProperties(typeof(T));
    DataTable table = new DataTable();
    for (int i = 0; i < props.Count; i++)
    {
        PropertyDescriptor prop = props[i];
        table.Columns.Add(prop.Name, prop.PropertyType);
    }
    object[] values = new object[props.Count];
    foreach (T item in data)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < values.Length; i++)
        {
            values[i] = props[i].GetValue(item);
        }
        table.Rows.Add(values);
    }
    return table;
}

Note: the below method can be used to convert any List to DataTable.

Usage:

var data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Train>(JsonString);


var shapedData = Enumerable.Range(0, 1).Select(x =>
                    new
                    {
                        train_num = data.train_num,
                        train_name = data.train_name,
                        doj = data.doj,
                        from_station = data.from_station.name,
                        to_station = data.to_station.name
                    }).ToList();

DataTable dt = ToDataTable(shapedData);

Try This Code.

    public DataTable jsonToDataTable(string jsonString)
    {
        var jsonLinq = JObject.Parse(jsonString);

        // Find the first array using Linq
        var srcArray = jsonLinq.Descendants().Where(d => d is JArray).First();
        var trgArray = new JArray();
        foreach (JObject row in srcArray.Children<JObject>())
        {
            var cleanRow = new JObject();
            foreach (JProperty column in row.Properties())
            {
                // Only include JValue types
                if (column.Value is JValue)
                {
                    cleanRow.Add(column.Name, column.Value);
                }
            }
            trgArray.Add(cleanRow);
        }

        return JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<DataTable>(trgArray.ToString());
    }
