Question How to use descriptions in pricing an item

[Lonster_Monster]

i have a genuine killer exclusive with the australium paint on it

i done

  var item = ourItems[i].market_name;
  var des = ourItems[i].descriptions;
  console.log(item)
  console.log(des)
  if (item == stock[item] && des == stock[item].description){
  if (item == Prices[item] && des == Prices[item].description){
  console.log(Prices[item].sell)
  }
}

when it does the console log on item and des it shows

	"Genuine Killer Exclusive":
	[ { 
    type: "text",
    value: "Paint Color: Australium Gold",
    color: "756b5e",
    app_data: "" },
	{ 
    type: "text",
    value: "Break news, spirits and heads.",
    app_data: "" 
	} ]

i put the descriiption text in the stock under the item name and is the value of description like below

{
"Genuine Killer Exclusive":
 {
 "instock": 0,
 "stocklimit":1,
 "description": 
  [ { 
  "type": "text",
  "value": "Paint Color: Australium Gold",
  "color": "756b5e",
  "app_data": "" },
  { 
  "type": "text",
  "value": "Break news, spirits and heads.",
  "app_data": "" 
  } ]
 }
}

the problem is with the "" around type, value, color, app_data, type, value, app_data  it acts as if that is not the value but json wont work without the " " around the certain words

 

SOLUTION:

 

 

I finally fixed the problem in

var item = ourItems[i].market_name;
var des = ourItems[i].descriptions;
console.log(item)
console.log(des)
if (item == stock[item] && des == stock[item].description){
if (item == Prices[item] && des == Prices[item].description){
console.log(Prices[item].sell)
}
}

changed the code to the code below and i think it is cool how i can call stuff like this now

const filestockname = './/settings/Prices/Prices.json';
        const filestock = require(filestockname);
        for (var i in ourItems) {
            var item = ourItems[i].market_name;
            var des = ourItems[i].description
            console.log(item)
            console.log(des)
            if (filestock[item]){
            fs.readFile(filestockname, (err, data) => {
            if (err) throw err;
            console.log('File read');
            });
            filestock[item].description = des
            console.log('writing to ' + filestockname);
            fs.writeFile(filestockname, JSON.stringify(filestock, null, 2), function (err) {
            if (err) return console.log(err);
            console.log('writing to ' + filestockname);
            });
            }
        }    

that is only for the our items side i didnt post for the their items side of the trade becaseu it is basically the same

Objects would just work fine as string..

var object = {
	'this_works':'it actually did!'
};

console.log(object.this_works);

..?
