JSON format parsing library?

Scripting Forums AppleScript | Mac OS X
#1

Just wondering if anyone is aware of a library out there to parse JSON strings in applescript, or else an effective way to do it in applescript via javascript?

Might be a bit late for you - but I’ve made a faceless background app that does just that.

For the benefit of googlers - JSON Helper is now on the Mac App Store. See www.mousedown.net

So how would you integrate that with your Location helper?


tell application "Location Helper"
	set current_location to reverse geocode location
	tell application "JSON Helper"
		set myRecord to read JSON from current_location
	end tell
end tell
return myRecord

That is what I am trying to do, but when I try to read it, the returned result is “”

Am I doing something wrong?

EDIT: I figured it out.
