NFluent.Json

NFluent Extensions for JsonElement.

Check a JsonElement value

Check.That(jsonElement1).HasNullValue();
Check.That(jsonElement2).HasStringValue("foo");
Check.That(jsonElement2).HasStringValue("Foo", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase);
Check.That(jsonElement3).HasIntValue(42);
Check.That(jsonElement4).HasLongValue(2147483648);
Check.That(jsonElement5).HasBoolValue(true);
Check.That(jsonElement6).IsTrue();
Check.That(jsonElement7).IsFalse();
Check.That(jsonElement7).HasGuidValue(expectedGuid);
Check.That(jsonElement9).HasArrayValue(new[]{1, 2});
Check.That(jsonElement10).HasArrayValueEquivalentTo(new[]{2, 1});
Check.That(jsonElement11).HasSize(3); // works for string and array elements
Check.That(jsonElement12).IsEmpty; // works for string and array elements

Check the presence of a property

Check.That(jsonElement).HasProperty("foo");

Check the presence and kind of a property

Check.That(jsonElement).HasProperty("foo", JsonValueKind.String);

Check the presence and value of a property

Check.That(jsonElement).HasStringProperty("stringProperty", "value");
Check.That(jsonElement).HasStringProperty("stringProperty", "Value", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase);
Check.That(jsonElement).HasBoolProperty("boolProperty", expectedValue: true);
Check.That(jsonElement).HasIntProperty("intProperty", 42);
Check.That(jsonElement).HasLongProperty("longProperty", 2147483648);
Check.That(jsonElement).HasNullProperty("nullProperty");
Check.That(jsonElement).HasGuidProperty("guidProperty", expectedGuid);
Check.That(jsonElement).HasArrayProperty("arrayProperty", new[] { 1, 2 });
Check.That(jsonElement).HasArrayPropertyEquivalentTo("arrayProperty", new[] { 2, 1 });

Check the size of a property

Check.That(jsonElement).HasProperty("arrayProperty").HasSize(4);
Check.That(jsonElement).HasProperty("otherArrayProperty").IsEmpty;
Check.That(jsonElement).HasProperty("stringProperty").HasSize(2);
Check.That(jsonElement).HasProperty("otherStringProperty").IsEmpty;

Check element(s) presence using JSON path

Check.That(jsonElement).HasSingleElementAt("$.foo.bar");
Check.That(jsonElement).HasAtleastOneElementAt("$.foo.array[*]");
Check.That(jsonElement).HasMultipleElementsAt("$.foo.otherArray[*]");
Check.That(jsonElement).HasElementsCountAt("$.foo.thirdArray[*]", 4);

Note that it supports simplified expressions making the $ and $. suffixes optional. For example, the following expressions are equivalent:

  • $.foo.bar can be written as .foo.bar or foo.bar
  • $[0].foo can be written as [0].foo

Utility methods

Find JsonElement inner element with JSON path

The JsonElement extension methods GetElementAt and GetRequiredElementAt allow you to retrieve a specific inner element using a JSON path expression.

var foo = jsonElement.GetElementAt("$.foo"); // foo can be null if no element is found
var bar = jsonElement.GetRequiredElementAt("$.bar"); // bar cannot be null (throws if no element is found)

Note that it supports simplified expressions making the $ and $. suffixes optional. For example, the following expressions are equivalent:

  • $.foo.bar can be written as .foo.bar or foo.bar
  • $[0].foo can be written as [0].foo

Read JsonElement from HttpContent

The ReadJsonRootElementAsync extension method allows you to read a JsonElement from a HttpContent object.

var requestJson = await httpRequestMessage.Content.ReadJsonRootElementAsync();

Check.That(requestJson).HasIntProperty("foo", 42);    
var responseJson = await httpResponseMessage.Content.ReadJsonElementAsync();

Check.That(responseJson).HasArrayValueEquivalentTo(new []{ 1, 2, 3 });
