✅ Working With Json

public static bool CreateJsonFile()
{
    Dictionary<string, bool> newDict = new Dictionary<string, bool>();
    newDict.Add("agree", false);

    var jsonData = JsonSerializer.Serialize(newDict);

    try
    {
        File.WriteAllText(_jsonFile, jsonData);
        return true;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        ColorPrint.WriteLine(ex.Message, ConsoleColor.Red);
        return false;
    }
}

public static bool CreateJsonFile()
{
    Dictionary<string, bool> newDict = new Dictionary<string, bool>();
    newDict.Add("agree", false);

    var jsonData = JsonSerializer.Serialize(newDict);

    try
    {
        File.WriteAllText(_jsonFile, jsonData);
        return true;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        ColorPrint.WriteLine(ex.Message, ConsoleColor.Red);
        return false;
    }
}

this current code creates a json file that looks simply like

{"agree": false}

{"agree": false}

however I want to add two new values to it so that it looks like

{
  "agree": false,
  "username": "",
  "password": ""
}

{
  "agree": false,
  "username": "",
  "password": ""
}

but I'm not sure how to edit the current code. Thanks

Do I need to create a second dictionary?

Jimmacle•10mo ago

i don't recommend using a dictionary, define a class that holds your data and serialize that

Mekasu0124•10mo ago

so like a model? like

public class SetupModel
{
  public bool Setup { get; set; }
  public string Username { get; set; }
  public string Password { get; set; }
}

//in setup function

public static bool SetupJson () 
{
    SetupModel setup = new()
    {
        Setup = false,
        Username = "",
        Password = ""
    }

    // serialize json
    // file . write all text
}

public class SetupModel
{
  public bool Setup { get; set; }
  public string Username { get; set; }
  public string Password { get; set; }
}

//in setup function

public static bool SetupJson () 
{
    SetupModel setup = new()
    {
        Setup = false,
        Username = "",
        Password = ""
    }

    // serialize json
    // file . write all text
}

like that?
