groovy assign map based on shell script

Question

I have a bash script that returns something like this:

{
  "key1": "value1",
  "key2": "value2"
}

I need to get those values saved as a map in groovy. How do I get that returned value stored as a groovy map?

Answer 1

You'll want to try something like this:

File script = new File('<My_Script_Path>')
def rawJson = script.getText().execute()
def jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper()
def result = jsonSlurper.parseText(rawJson)

result should then be structured like your map above.

Answer 2

You should just need

def out = "script.sh".execute().text
def map = new JsonSlurper().parseText(out)
