javaScript Convert String Array to Array

Question

I have response from Php Like this

"['console.log(\"ok ok \")','console.log(\"pagelet.js loaded\")','','']"

its an Array but its string how can i convert it to Array

i thinking about

split by ,

but i must remove the []
so if any body have another idea please Write it :)

also another idea its

new function

and

parse

but i dont want to use them now if there are none idea i will use them

Why not just output something from PHP that makes sense instead, for instance JSON — adeneo

What problem are you trying to solve by putting function calls in string data? — charlietfl

This would be much simpler not putting function calls in string data and using object properties to accomplish the same thing using client side logic

JSON

[{"log": "ok ok"},{"log": "pagelet.js loaded"},{"log":false},{"log":false}]

JS (after parsing json)

$.each(serverArray, function(_, item){
   if(item.log){
       console.log(item.log);
   }
});
