ip route generates an invalid JSON if the route type has to be printed,
eg. when detailed mode is active, or the type is different that unicast:
$ ip -d -j -p route show
[ {"unicast",
"dst": "192.168.122.0/24",
"dev": "virbr0",
"protocol": "kernel",
"scope": "link",
"prefsrc": "192.168.122.1",
"flags": [ "linkdown" ]
} ]
$ ip -j -p route show
[ {"unreachable",
"dst": "192.168.23.0/24",
"flags": [ ]
},{"prohibit",
"dst": "192.168.24.0/24",
"flags": [ ]
},{"blackhole",
"dst": "192.168.25.0/24",
"flags": [ ]
} ]
Fix it by printing the route type as the "type" attribute:
$ ip -d -j -p route show
[ {
"type": "unicast",
"dst": "default",
"gateway": "192.168.85.1",
"dev": "wlp3s0",
"protocol": "dhcp",
"scope": "global",
"metric": 600,
"flags": [ ]
},{
"type": "unreachable",
"dst": "192.168.23.0/24",
"protocol": "boot",
"scope": "global",
"flags": [ ]
},{
"type": "prohibit",
"dst": "192.168.24.0/24",
"protocol": "boot",
"scope": "global",
"flags": [ ]
},{
"type": "blackhole",
"dst": "192.168.25.0/24",
"protocol": "boot",
"scope": "global",
"flags": [ ]
} ]
