Example

{
    "status": "success",
    "data": {
        "order": [
            {
                "id": 1,
                "name": "test order 1",
                "price": 2.5
            },
            {
                "id": 2,
                "name": "test order 2",
                "price": 5.5
            }
        ],
        "user": {
            "name": "daniel ding",
            "gender": "Male",
            "age": 26
        }
    }
}

   status: string;
   data: dataType;
}

interface dataType {
   order: Array<orderItemType>;
   user: userType;
}

interface orderItemType {
   id: number;
   name: string;
   price: number;
}

interface userType {
   name: string;
