Syntax Error on accessing JSON data in QML data from python youtube_dl
I have a simple youtube_dl function to access the youtube download links here,
@QtCore.Slot(str, result=str)
def getDownloadLinks(self, url): try: with youtube_dl.YoutubeDL({}) as ydl: result = ydl.extract_info(url, download=False) if "entries" in result: videos = result["entries"][0] else: videos = result r_videos = [] for video in videos["formats"]: r_videos.append({"url": video["url"], "format": video["format"], "size": video["filesize"]}) resRet = {"status":"true", "urls": r_videos} return str(resRet) except Exception as e: resRet = {"status":"true", "error": str(e)} return str(resRet)And I am trying to access it in a QML file which has a function like this which access this python function by calling it like this.
function getLinks(url){ jsonString = downloadeng.getDownloadLinks(url) console.log(jsonString) var jsonObject = JSON.parse(jsonString) var anObject = JSON.parse(jsonObject) if (anObject.status == 'false') { //open Popup console.log("opening popup") } else { console.log(anObject.url) }
}But every time I get syntax error like thisSyntaxError: JSON.parse: Parse error indicating var anObject = JSON.parse(jsonObject) this line. Another thing is that I am parsing the JSON twice as it errors on one parse but works fine on second parse. Please help me with this two things.
