gmtread not reading .json files

[adigitoleo]

I'm getting a MethodError from GMTdataset when reading .json files (GeoJSON data). It happens regardless of ogr=true. I haven't had time to debug it yet but here is the trace:

ERROR: MethodError: no method matching GMTdataset(::Matrix{Float64}, ::Vector{String}, ::SubString{String}, ::Vector{String}, ::String, ::String, ::UInt32)
Closest candidates are:

What is the GMT.jl version? (Type ] st GMT)

[adigitoleo]

[5752ebe1] GMT v0.36.1

Ah, that is probably something I fixed recently. The problem is that SubString{String} in 3rd argument. It should be a String. Please try the #master branch (] add GMT#master)

[adigitoleo]

Works!

I can now reproduce the map like you did in https://forum.generic-mapping-tools.org/t/using-julia-to-plot-a-geojson-coordinate-matrix-gmt-jl-vs-gmt-command/2080/2

Nice. I'll tag another version soon but I would like first to finish (though nothing never finishes) the GADM work in master.
