I'm stuck. How do I use jq to transform the following json:
{
"sitemap": {
"tree": {
"node": [
{
"text": "Main",
"blocks": {
"block": [
{
"title": "Header"
},
{
"title": "General"
},
{
"title": "Message"
},
{
"title": "Daily"
},
{
"title": "Recognition"
},
{
"title": "Policies"
},
]
},
"children": {
"node": [
{
"text": "Hub",
"blocks": null,
"children": {
"node": [
{
"text": "Handbook",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
},
{
"text": "Jobs",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
},
{
"text": "Perks",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
},
{
"text": "Benefits",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
}
]
}
},
{
"text": "Resources",
"blocks": null,
"children": {
"node": [
{
"text": "Forms",
"blocks": null,

},
{
"text": "Marketing",
"blocks": null,
"children": {
"node": [
{

"blocks": null,
"children": null
},
{
"text": "Brochures",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
},
{

"blocks": null,
"children": null
}
]
}
},
{
"text": "Tips & Tricks",
"blocks": null,

}
},
{
"text": "About",
"blocks": null,
"children": {
"node": [

"text": "Strategy",
"blocks": null,

}
]
}
}
]
}
},
{
"text": "Search",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
},
{
"text": "Logins",
"blocks": null,
"children": {
"node": [
{
"text": "One",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
},
{
"text": "Two",
"blocks": null,
"children": null
}
]
}
}
]
}
}
}
into a list of all pages – and with "blocks" contained in parenthesis.
[
[ "Main" ],
[ "Main", "(Header)" ],
[ "Main", "(General)" ],
[ "Main", "(Message)" ],
[ "Main", "(Daily)" ],
[ "Main", "(Recognition)" ],
[ "Main", "(Policies)" ],

[ "Main", "About" ],
[ "Main", "About", "Strategy" ],
[ "Search" ],
[ "Logins" ],
[ "Logins", "One" ],
[ "Logins", "Two" ]
]
Here's one way:
def nodes:
.node[] | [.text] + (
[],
(.blocks.block[]? | ["(\(.title))"]),
(.children | nodes?)
);
[.sitemap.tree | nodes]
[
["Main"],
["Main","(Header)"],
["Main","(General)"],
["Main","(Message)"],
["Main","(Daily)"],
["Main","(Recognition)"],
["Main","(Policies)"],
["Main","Hub"],
["Main","Hub","Handbook"],
["Main","Hub","Jobs"],
["Main","Hub","Perks"],
["Main","Hub","Benefits"],
["Main","Resources"],
["Main","Resources","Forms"],
["Main","Resources","Procedures"],
["Main","Resources","Training"],
["Main","Resources","Scripts"],
["Main","Resources","Marketing"],
["Main","Resources","Marketing","Logos"],
["Main","Resources","Marketing","Brochures"],
["Main","Resources","Marketing","Signage"],
["Main","Resources","Tips & Tricks"],
["Main","About"],
["Main","About","Strategy"],
["Search"],
["Logins"],
["Logins","One"],
["Logins","Two"]
]
Demo
I figured it out, but if there's a better way let me know and I'll mark that as the accepted answer.
def b($path):
[ $path[], "(\(.title?))" ]
;
def n($path):
($path + [.text]) as $path
| $path,
if has ("blocks") then .blocks.block?[]? | b($path) else empty end,
if has ("children") then .children.node?[]? | n($path) else empty end
;
.sitemap.tree.node[] | n([])

Hi I have the following JSON file format (sample) and please any one let me know how to open the file in excel columns or tables. Thank you.

Tried excel power query to create reports using the above JSON file format.
spreadsheet view, click the “Data” tab on the ribbon at the top of Excel. In the “Data” sections, “Import and Transform” section, select the product from Get Data > From File > JSON. Open your computer's standard "Import" window. Here, open the width where your JSON file is located.

How to use jq when the variable has reserved characters?
(3 answers)
Closed 6 months ago.
I have a JSON file that I am trying to query with jq. I am unable to retrieve the observations. I am trying to retieve each of the "observations using the following command and not able to get to the result:
cat sample3.json | jq .dataSets[0].series.0:0:0:0:0.observations.0[0]
I am able to retieve up to the series using:
cat sample3.json | jq .dataSets[0].series
But once I try to drill down further I am getting a compile error:
$ cat sample3.json | jq .dataSets[0].series.0:0:0:0:0
jq: error: syntax error, unexpected LITERAL, expecting end of file (Unix shell quoting issues?) at <top-level>, line 1:
.dataSets[0].series.0:0:0:0:0
jq: 1 compile error
I am not sure what I am doing wrong here....

The .foo syntax cannot be used if the key name has anything but alphanumeric characters or the underscore, or if the first character of the key name is numeric.
Assuming you are using a recent version of jq,
you can always use the form: ."foo", which is actually an abbreviation of the basic form, .["foo"].
So assuming you're using a sufficiently recent version of jq, your query could begin with:
.dataSets[0].series."0:0:0:0:0"
If you are presenting the jq query on a command line, then you may have to escape the double-quotes appropriately, e.g. in a bash shell, by enclosing the jq query in single-quotes.
I want to make a search from object JSON but when a I found the element I want to be returned with his previous parents.
[
{
"name": "level1",
"children": [
{
"name": "level2",
"children": [
{
"name": "level3a",
"children": [
{
"name": "text",
"more": "info"
},
{
"name": "text Abc",
"more": "info"
}
]
},
{
"name": "level3b",
"children": [
{
"name": "text-C",
"more": "info"
},
{
"name": "search",
"more": "info"
}
]
},
{
"name": "level3c",
"children": [
{
"name": "info-C",
"more": "info"
},
{
"name": "search",
"more": "info"
}
]
}
]
}
]
},
{
"name": "level1",
"children": [
{
"name": "level2a",
"children": [
{
"name": "level3",
"children": [
{
"name": "text A",
"more": "info"
}
]
},
]
},
{
"name": "level2b",
"children": [
{
"name": "level3",
"children": [
{
"name": "text X",
"more": "info"
}
]
},
]
}
]
}
]
For example: if want to search "text" I want result like this
[
{
"name": "level1",
"children": [
{
"name": "level2",
"children": [
{
"name": "level3a",
"children": [
{
"name": "text",
"more": "info"
},
{
"name": "text Abc",
"more": "info"
}
]
},
{
"name": "level3b",
"children": [
{
"name": "text-C",
"more": "info"
}
]
}
]
}
]
},
{
"name": "level1",
"children": [
{
"name": "level2a",
"children": [
{
"name": "level3",
"children": [
{
"name": "text A",
"more": "info"
}
]
},
]
},
{
"name": "level2b",
"children": [
{
"name": "level3",
"children": [
{
"name": "text X",
"more": "info"
}
]
},
]
}
]
}
]
Things to considerer
only "search" in level 3 children by name property
if one o more childrens matches the search, return all of them
Basically I need to filter by the last level of object with elements matches with the search and return them with them parents.

Could anyone explain what am I doing wrong?
Best Regards, Piotr.
The problem is "name": .spec.containers[].name and "image": .spec.containers[].image:
Both expressions generate a sequence of each value for name and image which will than be combined.
Simplified example of why you get a Cartesian product:
jq -c -n '{name: ("A", "B"), value: ("C", "D")}'
outputs:
{"name":"A","value":"C"}
{"name":"A","value":"D"}
{"name":"B","value":"C"}
{"name":"B","value":"D"}
You get the desired output using this jq filter on your input:
jq '
.items[]
| {
"name": .metadata.name,
"containers": .spec.containers
| map({name, image})
}'
output:
{
"name": "pod-1",
"containers": [
{
"name": "container-1",
"image": "image-1"
},
{
"name": "container-2",
"image": "image-2"
}
]
}
I am currently trying to setup a continuous integration system using VSTS and have run into a bit of a snag. As part of the release process I need to update a specific object value in a JSON file depending on the environment. The only tools it seems I have at my disposal that might get this done in the VSTS environment is PowerShell.
I've done quite a bit of research and have not been able to figure out how exactly this can be done. I found this question and answer here on Stack Overflow "How do I update JSON file using PowerShell" but executing the script provided in the answer changes the structure of the JSON file substantially and adds quite a bit of what looks like PowerShell metadata.
Ideally, I would like to take an existing JSON file that gets deployed and update the value of the connectionString property in the example JSON below.
{
"policies": {
"Framework.DataContext": {
"connectionString": "Server=ServerName;Database=DateBaseName;Integrated Security=sspi;"
}
}
}
Does anyone have any advice on how to accomplish this? So far I have tried running the following script but it throws an "The property 'connectionString' cannot be found on this object. Verify that the property exists and can be set." exception. I have verified that the object traversal is correct and the connectionString property exists.
$pathToJson = "D:\Path\To\JSON\file.json"
$a = Get-Content $pathToJson | ConvertFrom-Json
$a.policies.'Framework.DataContext'.connectionString = "Server=ServerName;Database=DateBaseName;Integrated Security=sspi;"
$a | ConvertTo-Json | set-content $pathToJson
The full contents of file.json are as follows

Your json is missing the starting and ending curly brackets:
{
"policies": {
"Framework.DataContext": {
"connectionString": "Server=ServerName;Database=DateBaseName;Integrated Security=sspi;"
}
}
}
Now you can update the file like this:
$pathToJson = "F:\Path\To\JSON\file.json"
$a = Get-Content $pathToJson | ConvertFrom-Json
$a.policies.'Framework.DataContext'.connectionString = "Server=ServerName;Database=DateBaseName;Integrated Security=sspi2;"
$a | ConvertTo-Json | set-content $pathToJson
You could also use some Select-Object to get the property:
$connectionString = $a | select -expand policies | select -expand Framework.DataContext
$connectionString.connectionString = 'Test'
$s = Get-Content "F:\Path\To\JSON\file.json" -Raw|ConvertFrom-Json
$s.policies.'Framework.DataContext'.connectionString="Server=ServerName;Database=DateBaseName;Integrated Security=sspi2;"
$s|ConvertTo-Json |Set-Content "F:\Path\To\JSON\file.json"
I also faced the similar problem. Fixed it by specifying the INDEX of the object I was trying to edit.
$a.policies[0].'Framework.DataContext'.connectionString = "Server=ServerName;Database=DateBaseName;Integrated Security=sspi;"
Hope it helps!
