I am trying to stringify the object which has another stringify object. I am getting \added to inside object
a = {}
str = {'a': 'test'}
a.str = JSON.stringify(str);
console.log("=="+ (a));
console.log("strin " + JSON.stringify(a) ) // {"str":"{\"a\":\"test\"}"}
expected: {"str":"{"a":"test"}"}
What you expect would not be valid JSON.
Quotes are used to delimit strings in a JSON text.
With your expected result a JSON parser would see "{" and think that was the whole string and then a would be an error.
The escape sequence \" is how you say "This is a quote that is a part of a string" instead of "This is a quote that ends the string".
The output is fine. There is nothing wrong.
That said, nesting JSON is generally a bad idea. It is more complicated to parse and harder to read.
In general you should be creating the complete data structure and then stringifying that.
const a = {};
const str = {
'a': 'test'
};
a.str = str;
const json = JSON.stringify(a, null, 2);
console.log(`result: ${json}`);There is an error
str = {'a': 'test}
It should be
str = {'a': 'test'}
The reason you are getting '' is simply because they are escaping double strings
This is illegal:
"{"str":"{"a":"test"}"}"
This is legal:
"{\"str\":\"{\"a\":\"test\"}\"}"
