Is there anyway to convert the compilationUnit object into the json?

String src = """
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
   runApp(new MyApp());
}
@Entity()
class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
// This widget is the root of your application.
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
 return new Container(
    decoration: new BoxDecoration(color: Colors.cyan),
    child: (new Center(child: new Text("Hello"))));

 }
}""";
var ast = parseCompilationUnit(src, parseFunctionBodies: true);

I am using this method to get the ast of the dart code and i want it to convert it into json object.

What should the resulting JSON look like? You need to convert it yourself. Fill a map with the keys and values and use `JSON.encode()` from the `dart:convert` package, to get a JSON string from the `Map` structure – Günter Zöchbauer Jul 21 '17 at 09:32
i am new to dart so can you please tell me how to iterate AstNode object to get the keys and value. Also please explain how to use visitor for AstNode with example. Thank you.. – Rishab Jain Jul 21 '17 at 09:43
The linter package might be helpful to get some insight how to use it https://github.com/dart-lang/linter – Günter Zöchbauer Jul 21 '17 at 09:58
