Build JObject from iterative path - json.net

Question

I need to dynamically build a object that I can then serialize to a JSON string. Essentially I'm working off of two Dictionaries that I need to use to create the new object.
var myValues= new Dictionary<string, object>
{
{ "Value1", "Foo" },
{ "Value2", "Bar" }
};
var mappedValues = new Dictionary<string, string>
{
{ "Value1", "Some:Path" },
{ "Value2", "Some:OtherPath }
};
As I loop through I need to be able to build out the Json Object so that I end up with something like:
{
"Some": {
"Path": "Foo",
"OtherPath": "Bar"
}
}
From what I've seen there is no way built into Newtonsoft.Json to do this specifically, but I'm hoping that someone may have an idea of how I might be able to most efficiently accomplish the goal.

Answer 1

It doesn't seem that there is any sort of way to create an element built into Newtonsoft.Json at this time... however I eventually came up with the following solution which works
private JObject DoFoo()
{
var jObject = new JObject();
foreach(var mapping in mappedValues)
{
var queue = new Queue<string>(mapping.Value.Split(':');
var value = myValues[mapping.Key];
SetValueWithPath(jObject, queue, value);
}
return jObject;
}
private void SetValueWithPath(JObject parent, Queue<string> path, object content)
{
var currentNode = path?.FirstOrDefault();
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(currentNode)) return;
if (path.Count == 1)
{
parent[currentNode] = JToken.FromObject(content);
return;
}
else if (!parent.ContainsKey(currentNode))
{
parent[currentNode] = new JObject();
}
path.Dequeue();
SetValueWithPath(parent[currentNode] as JObject, path, content);
}
