how to read json file as string in c# code example

Example 1: reading a json file in c#

JObject o1 = JObject.Parse(File.ReadAllText(@"c:\videogames.json"));

// read JSON directly from a file
using (StreamReader file = File.OpenText(@"c:\videogames.json"))

}

Example 2: how to read json file in C#

//For any of the JSON parse, use the website 
//http://json2csharp.com/ 
//(easiest way) to convert your JSON into 
//C# class to deserialize your JSON into C# object.

public class FormatClass
{
	public string JsonName { get; set; }      
	public string JsonPass { get; set; }      
}
//Then use the JavaScriptSerializer (from System.Web.Script.Serialization),
// in case you don't want any third party DLL like newtonsoft.
public void Read()
{
  	using (StreamReader Filejosn = new StreamReader("Path.json"))
	{
   		JavaScriptSerializer jss = new JavaScriptSerializer();
   		var Items = jss.Deserialize<FormatClass>(Filejosn.ReadToEnd());
  		// Add Code here :)
	}
}
