Sending JSONObject from Unity to Node.JS server

I am trying to send some data to my Node.JS server using Socket.io. I have a little experience with JSON, but I am no expert. I am using socket.Emit(string ev, JSONObject data), but I have no idea how to form a JSONObject with the data I need to send. I have so far:

Code (CSharp):

1.        
2. void Start () {
3.  
4.     latitude = GPS.Instance.latitude.ToString();
5.     longitude = GPS.Instance.longitude.ToString();
6.  
7.     string coordinatesJson = "{ 'latitude': latitude, 'longitude': longitude }";
8.  
9.     socket.Emit("send coordinates", coordinatesJson);
10. }
11.  

But this doesn't work because coordinatesJson is a string, of course. Could someone explain how I can create a JSONObject to send this data?

 

Change to this:

Code (CSharp):

1. socket.Emit("send coordinates", new JSONObject(coordinatesJson));

 

I am getting null in the server if I am using this

 

Is the problem solved

 

Doesn't work for me..... it is sending null

 

What happen if you Debug.log instead of socket.Emit ? Sure this won't be null ?

 

1. [Serializable]
   public class data
   {
   public int data1;
   
   }
2. void start(){
3. data Data = new data();
4. Data.data1=3;//some value;
5. string data=JsonUtility.ToJson(Data);
   
6. socket.Emit("message", new JSONObject(data));

 

this way happend to work for me
