How to convert from String to Int in Json.Decoder
问题 Here's my decoder: decodeData : Json.Decoder (Id, String) decodeData = Json.at ["data", "0"] <| Json.object2 (,) ("id" := Json.int) ("label" := Json.string) The id should logically be Int however my backend sends it as String (e.g. we get "1" instead of 1 ). How can I cast the decoded value to Int ? 回答1: ... and to answer myself :) I found the solution in this Flickr example decodeData : Json.Decoder (Id, String) decodeData = let number = Json.oneOf [ Json.int, Json.customDecoder Json.string
