Description
Adds a number to an array.Same as JSON.AddItemToArray, but calls JSON.CreateNumber automatically for you.
With version 6, you can pass several parameters to add several entries to the array.
When adding to a JSON reference, the function returns that reference number.
This function takes variable number of parameters. Pass as much parameters as needed separated by the semicolon in FileMaker.
Please repeat Value parameter as often as you need.
Examples
Adds an item to array:
MBS( "JSON.AddItemToArray"; "[1,2,3]"; 4)
Example result:
[1, 2, 3, 4]
Add 4 numbers to an array:
MBS( "JSON.AddNumberToArray"; "[]"; 1; 2; 3; 4 )
Example result:
[1, 2, 3, 4]
Add big number:
MBS( "JSON.AddNumberToArray"; "[]"; 12063660878882855000013426248015578834577 )
Example result:
[12063660878882855000013426248015578834577]
Use While loop to create JSON array:
Let ( [
// Create array object
j = MBS( "JSON.CreateArrayRef" );
// make a loop to add numbers
r = While ( $i = 0 ; $i < 10 ; [ r = MBS( "JSON.AddNumberToArray"; j; $i ); $i = $i + 1 ] ; $i );
// format the result
text = MBS( "JSON.Format"; j );
// free json
r = MBS( "JSON.Release"; j )
];
// return result as text
text )
