Re: Parsing JSON

[Daniel Miller <bonsaiviking () gmail com>]

David,

I just missed you in IRC. I don't see any problem with parsing this with
json.lua. To get the rendered title, I would use this:

local status, parsed = json.parse('[{"id":1,...')
title = parsed[1].title.rendered

Note that your data is wrapped in a single-element array, and Lua uses
1-indexed tables as arrays. So the first element is index 1, and "title" is
a key in the object at that index.
