Example 12. Reading JSON

A JSON file is written with a value for x and a value for y:

---

1 2 3 4

{ "x": 300, "y": 200 }

---

This javascript file reads the JSON file and set the sprite coordinates.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29

// ex12. Reading JSON var GameState = { preload: function() { game.load.image("red", "images/red.png"); game.load.text("coord", "data/coord.json"); }, create: function() { // Set backgound color game.stage.backgroundColor = "#0FFF0F"; // Coordinates var data = JSON.parse(game.cache.getText("coord")); var x = data.x; var y = data.y; // sprite at x, y location this.red = game.add.sprite(x, y, "red"); } }; var game = new Phaser.Game(800, 600, Phaser.AUTO); game.state.add('GameState', GameState); game.state.start('GameState');

This is the output:
