Deserialize JSON from a file |
This sample deserializes JSON retrieved from a file.
public class Movie { public string Name { get; set; } public int Year { get; set; } }
// read file into a string and deserialize JSON to a type Movie movie1 = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<Movie>(File.ReadAllText(@"c:\movie.json")); // deserialize JSON directly from a file using (StreamReader file = File.OpenText(@"c:\movie.json")) { JsonSerializer serializer = new JsonSerializer(); Movie movie2 = (Movie)serializer.Deserialize(file, typeof(Movie)); }
