I want to be able to use the API from the code below to display data in a formatted way such as this example.
Job Title: Agricultural and Related Trades
Percentage of Occupancies in Area: 15.41%
You can find my poor attempt to display the data below. I am very new to Ajax, jQuery, JavaScript, etc.
<script src=".12.4.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(function() {
$.ajax({
url: ".9895989531941,-3.796229726988194",
type: "get",
dataType: "json",
success: function(data) {
console.log(data[0].area);
outputString= data[0].description.percentage;
var paragraph = $("<p />", {
text: outputString
});
$("body").append(paragraph);
}
});
});
</script>

Reset to default 7After successfully execute your GET request you will get your response at data variable now you can run a for loop to populate your expected oute 'HTML' TEXT than you can append it on your HTML body
I have used here JavaScript toFixed() Method keeping only two decimals
$(function() {
$.ajax({
url: "http://api.lmiforall.uk/api/v1/census/jobs_breakdown?area=55.9895989531941,-3.796229726988194",
method: "GET",
dataType: "json",
success: function(data) {
var str = "";
for(var i= 0; i < data.jobsBreakdown.length; i++){
str +='Job Title : '+data.jobsBreakdown[i].description+' and Related Trades <br> Percentage of Occupancies in Area : '+data.jobsBreakdown[i].percentage.toPrecision(2)+'% <br><br>';
}
$("body").html(str);
}
});
});
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Page Title</title>
<script src="https://code.jquery./jquery-1.12.4.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is a Heading</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>- You need to define a function to render a single item of description and percentage.
- For parsing the percentage, you can use Number object
- When you get the data back from Ajax, you need to loop on the items and pass each one of them to your render function you defined earlier (here I used forEach).
- Generally, as rule of thumb, you have to split your code into functions each with single responsibility.
function renderItem(itemData) {
const title = $('<p/>').text('Job Title: ' + itemData.description);
const percentage = $('<p/>').text('Percentage of Occupancies in Area: '+ new Number(itemData.percentage).toFixed(2) + '%');
const item = $('<li/>').append(title, percentage);
$('#result').append(item);
}
$(function() {
$.ajax({
url: "http://api.lmiforall.uk/api/v1/census/jobs_breakdown?area=55.9895989531941,-3.796229726988194",
type: "get",
dataType: "json",
success: function(data) {
data.jobsBreakdown.forEach(renderItem);
}
});

<ul id="result"></ul>Something like this is likely what you want:
<script>
$(function() {
$.ajax({
url: "http://api.lmiforall.uk/api/v1/census/jobs_breakdown?area=55.9895989531941,-3.796229726988194",
type: "get",
dataType: "json",
success: function(data) {
data.jobsBreakdown.forEach(function(job) {
var job_text = "Job Title: " + job.description;
var percentage_text = "Percentage of Occupancies in Area: " + job.percentage.toFixed(2) + "%"
$("body").append("<div style='margin-bottom: 10px;'><div>" + job_text + "</div><div>" + percentage_text + "</div></div>")
})
}
});
});
</script>
You can use string templates to create your paragraph content.
Use the <br /> HTML element to make a new line in the paraghraph.
let data = [{
area: 'Agricultural and Related Trades',
percentage: 15.41
}]
var paragraph = document.createElement('p');
paragraph.innerHTML = `Job Title: ${data[0].area}<br/>
Percentage of Occupancies in Area: ${data[0].percentage}%"`;
document.body.appendChild(paragraph);发布者：admin，转转请注明出处：http://www.yc00.com/questions/1744095050a4557790.html
