jsonDecode function

Parses the string and returns the resulting Json object.

The optional reviver function is called once for each object or list property that has been parsed during decoding. The key argument is either the integer list index for a list property, the string map key for object properties, or null for the final result.

The default reviver (when not provided) is the identity function.

Shorthand for json.decode. Useful if a local variable shadows the global json constant.

Example:

const jsonString =
    '{"text": "foo", "value": 1, "status": false, "extra": null}';

final data = jsonDecode(jsonString);
print(data['text']); // foo
print(data['value']); // 1
print(data['status']); // false
print(data['extra']); // null

const jsonArray = '''
  [{"text": "foo", "value": 1, "status": true},
   {"text": "bar", "value": 2, "status": false}]
''';

final List<dynamic> dataList = jsonDecode(jsonArray);
print(dataList[0]); // {text: foo, value: 1, status: true}
print(dataList[1]); // {text: bar, value: 2, status: false}

final item = dataList[0];
print(item['text']); // foo
print(item['value']); // 1
print(item['status']); // false
