I have a script using the "anything-but" function, please see below. I have way too many RDS-EVENTs (hundreds) and it will be much easier to match RDS-EVENT that I need. How do I re-write this and instead of returning "anything-but", return everything that matches particular RDS-EVENTs?
Thank you for your help.

I have a nested JSON in a field that contains multiple important keys that I would like to retrieve as an array:
{
"tasks": [
{
"id": "task_1",
"name": "task_1_name",
"assignees": [
{
"id": "assignee_1",
"name": "assignee_1_name"
}
]
},
{
"id": "task_2",
"name": "task_2_name",
"assignees": [
{
"id": "assignee_2",
"name": "assignee_2_name"
},
{
"id": "assignee_3",
"name": "assignee_3_name"
}
]}]}
All the queries that I've tried so far fx ( $.tasks.*.assignees..id) and many others have returned
[
"assignee_1",
"assignee_2",
"assignee_3"
]
But what I need is:
[
["assignee_1"],
["assignee_2", "assignee_3"]
]
Is it possible to do with JSONPath or any script inside of it, without involving 3rd party tools?
The problem you're facing is that tasks and assignees are arrays. You need to use [*] instead of .* to get the items in the array. So your path should look like
$.tasks[*].assignees[*].id
You can try it at https://json-everything.net/json-path.
NOTE The output from my site will give you both the value and its location within the original document.
Edit
(I didn't read the whole thing :) )
You're not going to be able to get
[
["assignee_1"],
["assignee_2", "assignee_3"]
]
because, as #Tomalak mentioned, JSON Path is a query language. It's going to remove all structure and return only values.
I am reverse engineering an app that sends queries to
SOMESERVERNAME.analysis.windows.net/public/reports/querydata via an HTTP POST of an JSON-structured query.
Some initial lines of a sample query are at the end of this message.
I can't find any documentation on this anywhere. I don't know if this is some secret API or what. I ultimately would like to just ignore the aggregations altogether and just dump the raw data, which seems to sit in some flat-file type container on the back-end, but without some API documentation I'm stuck with just re-running the super basic handful of queries I've been able to intercept.
Note: this app is an embedded analytics page created with PowerBI, but the only REST API I can find for PowerBI has nothing to do with querying, but just basic object management.
Thanks!

I have built a client that scrapes data off a specific Power BI report using the same API, but probably you'll be able to adapt it to your use case. Maybe we can even abstract the code into a more generalized Power BI client!
Having tinkered with the API for two days, I realised that there are many ways the data can be formatted:
"nested"/multidimensional data can be unflattened, flattened by 1 degree, etc.
a primary "table" of a result dataset (in data.PH) can reference others (in data.SH)
The basics are as follows:
A dataset is structured like a multidimensional table, with cells containing values.
In a set of cells, the first always has a field S that contains the schema of its and all subsequent cells.
The schema maps a field of each cell's object with a selection from your query, e.g. the G0 field with the queried column age.
My client seems to work only with a specific type of query (SemanticQueryDataShapeCommand), a specific nr of dimensions and a specific column marked as primary (via Binding.Primary). But maybe that helps! https://github.com/derhuerst/fetch-bvg-occupancy/blob/1ebb864b1ff7130f9d2f0ab031c6d78bcabdd633/lib/parse-dataset.js
The only documented way to use this API is through the ADOMD.NET or OleDb provider.
If you want to send a DAX/MDX query and retrieve data programmatically, there's a sample of how to front-end the service with a simple REST API here.
I'm Working on AngularJS.
In this part of the project my goal is to obtain a JSON structure after filling a form with some particulars values.
Here's the fiddle of my simple form: Fiddle
With the form I will do a query to KairosDB, that is my NoSql Database, I will query data from it by a JSON object. The form is structured in this way:
a Name
a certain Number of Tags, with Tag Id ("ch" for example) and tag value ("932" for example)
a certain Number of Aggregators to manipulate data coming from DB
Start Timestamp and End Timestamp (now they are static and only included in the final JSON Object)
After filling this form, with my code I'll obtain for example this JSON object:
{
"metrics": [
{
"tags": [
{
"id": "ch",
"value": "932"
},
{
"id": "ch",
"value": "931"
}
],
"aggregators": {
"name": "sum",
"sampling": [
{
"value": "1",
"unit": "milliseconds",
"type": "SUM"
}
]
}
}
],
"cache_time": 0,
"start_absolute": 123,
"end_absolute": 1234
}
Unfortunately, KairosDB accepts a different structure, and as you could see, Tag id "ch" doesn't hase an "id" string before, or for example, Tag values coming from the same tag id are grouped together
{
"metrics": [
{
"tags": {
"ch": [
"932",
"931"
]
},
"name": "AIENR",
"aggregators": [
{
"name": "sum",
"sampling": {
"value": "1",
"unit": "milliseconds"
}
}
]
}
],
"cache_time": 0,
"start_absolute": 1367359200000,
"end_absolute": 1386025200000
}
My question is: Is there a way to obtain the JSON structure like the one accepted by Kairos DB with an Angular JS form?. Thanks to everyone.
I've seen this topic as the one more similar to mine but it isn't in AngularJS.
Personally, I'd do the refactoring work in the backend - Have what ever server interfaces sends and receives data do the manipulation - Otherwise you'll end up needing to refactor your data inside Angular anywhere you want to use that dataset.
Where as doing it in the backend would put it in a single access point.
Of course, you could do it in Angular, just replace userString in the submitData method with a copy of the array and replace the tags section with data in the new format, and likewise refactor the returned result to the correct format when you get a reply.
I want to find certain elements in my elastic search that have a given ID and I can't figure an easy way to do this.
I see http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/reference/query-dsl/ids-query/ but can't for the life of me figure out how to structure a query to use it, or when I do toy around with es-head or curl I see errors like:
Parse Failure [Failed to parse source [{"query":{"match_all":{}},"ids
{"values""1","4","100"]}}]]]; nested: SearchParseException[[dailyaggregates][4]:
query[ConstantScore(NotDeleted(*:*))],from[-1],size[-1]: Parse Failure [No parser for
element [ids]]]; }]
etc. Can anyone tell me how to set this up? Thanks.
edit: My attempt with that error was from es-head but similar errors through curl. I believe what I tried was some variant of this:
{
"query": {
"match_all": {}
},
"ids": {
"values": [
"100"
]
}
}
ids is a type of query, just like match, or match_all. So the format should be:
{"query":{ "ids":{ "values": [ 100 ] } } }
You can alternatively do it as a filter, like so:
{"filter":{ "query": {"ids":{ "values": [ 100 ] } } } }
I have a REST service that returns a list of objects. Each object contains objectcode and objectname.
This is my first time building a REST service, so I'm not sure how to format the response.
Should it be:
{
"objects": {
"count": 2,
"object": [
{
"objectcode": "1",
"objectname": "foo"
},
{
"objectcode": "2",
"objectname": "bar"
},
...more objects
]
}
}
OR
[
{
"objectcode": "1",
"objectname": "foo"
},
{
"objectcode": "2",
"objectname": "bar"
},
...more objects
]
I realize this might be a little subjective, but which would be easier to consume? I would also need to support XML formatted response later.
They are the same to consume, as a library handles both just fine. The first one has an advantage over the second though: You will be able to expand the response to include other information additional to the objects (for example, categories) without breaking existing code.
Something like
{
"objects": {
"count": 2,
"object": [
{
"objectcode": "1",
"objectname": "foo"
},
{
"objectcode": "2",
"objectname": "bar"
},
...more objects
]
}
"categories": {
"count": 2,
"category" : [
{ "name": "some category"}
]
}
}
Additionally, the json shouldn't be formatted in any way, so remove whitespace, linebreaks etc. Also, the count isn't really necessary, as it will be saved while parsing the objects themselves.
I often see the first one. Sometimes it's easier to manipulate data to have meta-data. For exemple google API use first one : http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=1600+Amphitheatre+Parkway,+Mountain+View,+CA&sensor=true
It's not only the question of personal preference; it's also the question fo your requirements. For example, if I was in the same situation and I did need object count on client side then I'd go with first approach otherwise I will choose the second one.
Also please note that "classic" REST server mostly will work a bit different way. If some REST function is to return a list of objects then it should return only a list of URLs to those objects. The URLs should be pointing to details endpoints - so by querying each endpoint you may get details on specific single object.
As a client I would prefer the second format. If the first format only includes the number of "objects", this is redundant information.
