Using var in nodejs to search a json file

Question

So im trying to search a json file but i tried this and it didn't return a value.

var info = JSON.parse(body);                      // Get File From Website
var itemforjson = item.market_hash_name;          // Get The Item Name To Try To Use It In Json
depitems[i].value = parseInt(info.itemforjson);   // Has To Be A Number

Could you explain more detailed what exactly is your problem? You get any error? — Jose Hermosilla Rodrigo, Jun 01 '16 at 22:54
There are many duplicates of this question which boils down to how to access a property of an object when the property name is in a variable. — jfriend00, Jun 01 '16 at 23:59

Use parseInt(info[itemforjson]) on the last line.

Thanks i also had to change it to a parseFloat because it has a decimal. – 16austin16 Jun 01 '16 at 23:09
