parse json to object ruby

Question

I looked into different resources and still get confused on how to parse a json format to a custom object, for example

class Resident
  attr_accessor :phone,         


        

Answer 1

The following code is more simple:

require 'json'

data = JSON.parse(json_data)
residents = data['Resident'].map { |rd| Resident.new(rd['phone'], rd['addr']) }
