"Interactions" (and syntax) between JSON and Javascript arrays

Question

I'm not really good with JSON; maybe I didn't get the JSON concept so well to get out of this, so I'm asking.

I have a function in AngularJS that contains an array; this array should be automatically filled with content from a JSON page in my server. The array is composed by object made in this way:

var a = [{ id: 0, name: '', date:'', content: ''}, ...]

My question is: how should create the JSON object to respect my array syntax?

Just use the function built into JavaScript to convert data structures to JSON:

var json = JSON.stringify(a);

I don't see how this answers the question. OP wants to design a JSON response and use it to populate an array, not turning a data structure into JSON... Maybe I misunderstood the question though.

@PeterHerdenborg — The OP said they had an array which contains some objects and wanted to create JSON. It could be interpreted that way too though, it is not a clear question.

Ok (thank you for the quick answer), now i got the JSON object, but how can i trasform the string in array using $http.get('myUrl.json'), where myUrl is where my file is.

JSON.parse(yourstring)

@PeterHerdenborg you got the point. If i have the JSON object, how can i turn back into array?
