将json从javascript发送到codeigniter中的控制器

Question

我在codeigniter中的新东西，所以我想从javascript发送一个json到ajax控制器这里它的javascript代码

    var text = '{ "employees" : [' +
                '{ "firstName":"John" , "lastName":"Doe" },' +
                '{ "firstName":"Anna" , "lastName":"Smith" },' +
                '{ "firstName":"Peter" , "lastName":"Jones" },'+
                '{  "algo": "7"} ]}';
    var obj = JSON.parse(text);

    document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML =
    obj.employees[1].firstName + " " + obj.employees[3].algo;


    $(document).on("click", "#boton", function(event){
        event.preventDefault();
        var id = $(this).val();
            $.ajax({
                type : "POST",
                url : window.location.protocol + "//" + window.location.host + "/css/index/index/click",
                data : "{'places':'" + obj + "'}",
                contentType : "application/json; charset=utf-8",
                dataType : "json",
                success : function(data) {
                    alert(data);
                },
                fail : function(data) {
                    alert(data);
                }
    });
});

这是我的控制器代码：

<?php


class Index extends CI_Controller {


    function __construct(){
            parent::__construct();

    }
    public function Index()
    {
        $this -> load -> view('index/principal');

    }

    public function click(){
         $places = $this->input->post('places'); 
         print_r(json_decode($places));
    }
}

它在我做的方式中的可行性？或者还有其他方法可以做到吗？
