convert json to csv using jq bash - json

have a JSON data like below
"metric": {
"name" : "name1"
},
"values": [
[
16590879,
"0.043984349"
],
"values": [
[
16590876,
"0.043983444"
]
]
}
}
writing below jq , but not giving proper result
jq -r '[.metric.name,(.values[] | map(.) | #csv)'
Actual result
[
"name1",
"16590879",\"0.043984349\"",
"16590876",\"0.043983444\"",
"16590874",\"0.043934345\""
Expected result
name1,16590879,0.043984349
name1,16590876,0.043983444
name2,16590874,0.043934345

The sample data provided is invalid as JSON, but assuming it has been adjusted as shown below, we would have:
< sample.json jq -r '[.metric.name] + .values[] | #csv'
"name1",16590879,"0.043984349"
"name1",16590876,"0.043983444"
If you don't want the quotation marks, then use join(",") instead of #csv.
sample.json
{
"metric": {
"name": "name1"
},
"values": [
[
16590879,
"0.043984349"
],
[
16590876,
"0.043983444"
]
]
}

JQ: Merging array entities with same attribute name

I have a data structure like this:
[
{
"some_id": "123",
"items_1": [
{
"label": "my_name"
}
],
"items_2": []
},
{
"some_id": "123",
"items_1": [],
"items_2": [
"value_1",
"value_3"
]
},
{
"some_id": "123",
"items_1": [],
"items_2": [
"value_1",
"value_2"
]
}
]
And I want to modify the data into something like
[
{
"some_id": "123",
"items_1": [
{
"label": "my_name"
}
],
"items_2": [
"value_1",
"value_2",
"value_3"
]
}
]
Basically taking any fields that are the same and concatenating the arrays together. Similarly, items_1 can have some value for the same id down the line and I want to concatenate that array with another if needed.
I have tried using JQ with something like
jq -Mr '[ group_by(.media_url)[] | add | tojson ] | join(",\n")' test.json
However this doesnt seem to be working.
Would the following work for you?
group_by(.some_id) | map({
some_id: map(.some_id) | first,
items_1: map(.items_1) | add | unique,
items_2: map(.items_2) | add | unique })

parsing jq returns null

I have a json output

},
"type": "db"
}
]
}
Required output:
osd.7 /dev/sde /dev/nvme0n1p5 /dev/nvme0n1p6
osd.41 /dev/nvme1n1p13 n/a n/a
osd.9 /dev/sdf /dev/nvme0n1p7 /dev/nvme0n1p7
Problems:
When I try parsing using jq .[][].devices, I get null values:
$ cat json | jq .[][].devices
[
"/dev/sde"
]
null
[
"/dev/nvme1n1p13"
]
null
[
"/dev/sdf"
]
null
I can solve it via jq .[][].devices[]?.
However, this trick doesn't help me when I do want to see where there's no value (to print n/a instead):
$ cat json | jq '.[][].tags | ."ceph.db_device"'
"/dev/nvme0n1p5"
null
"/dev/nvme0n1p3"
null
null
"/dev/nvme0n1p7"
null
And finally, I try to create a table:
$ cat json | jq -r '["osd."+keys[]], [.[][].devices[]?], [.[][].tags."ceph.db_device" // ""] | #csv' | column -t -s,
"osd.7" "osd.41" "osd.9"
"/dev/sde" "/dev/nvme0n1p13" "/dev/sdf"
"/dev/nvme0n1p5" "/dev/nvme0n1p7"
So the obvious problem is that the 3rd row doesn't match the correct values.
And the final problem is how do I transpose it from columns to rows, as detailed in the required output?
Would this do what you want?
jq --raw-output '
to_entries[] | [
"osd." + .key,
( .value[0]
| .devices[],
( .tags
| ."ceph.db_device" // "n/a",
."ceph.wal_device" // "n/a"
)
)
]
| #tsv
'
osd.7 /dev/sde /dev/nvme0n1p5 /dev/nvme0n1p6
osd.41 /dev/nvme1n1p13 n/a n/a
osd.9 /dev/sdf /dev/nvme0n1p7 /dev/nvme0n1p8

parsing json and print only values

I have this json object like this :
[ {
"name": "ACCOUNT-V1",
"version": "1.3.0"
},
{
"name": "IDENTIFIER-V1",
"version": "1.1.0"
},
{
"name": "LOCATION-V1",
"version": "1.6.0"
}
]
I'd like to parse and print like this
ACCOUNT-V1 1.3.0
IDENTIFIER-V1 1.1.0
LOCATION-V1 1.6.0
tried with
cat json_content.json | jq ' .[] | .name .version'
just getting empty array [] in output
jq --raw-output '.[] | "\(.name) \(.version)"'
Where
.[] Loops over the array
"\(.name) \(.version)" creates a string with name and version key
Using string interpolation
--raw-putput ensures no quotes on the output
Try it online!
In JSON :
[ .. ] is for array
{ .. } is object
So if you put your json to a variable like
const jsx = [ {
"name": "ACCOUNT-V1",
"version": "1.3.0"
},
{
"name": "IDENTIFIER-V1",
"version": "1.1.0"
},
{
"name": "LOCATION-V1",
"version": "1.6.0"
}
];
It will be :
jsx[0].name = "ACCOUNT-V1"
jsx[2].version = "1.6.0"
and so on

jq: sort object values

I want to sort this data structure by the object keys (easy with -S and sort the object values (the arrays) by the 'foo' property.
I can sort them with
jq -S '
. as $in
| keys[]
| . as $k
| $in[$k] | sort_by(.foo)
' < test.json
... but that loses the keys.
I've tried variations of adding | { "\($k)": . }, but then I end up with a list of objects instead of one object. I also tried variations of adding to $in (same problem) or using $in = $in * { ... }, but that gives me syntax errors.
The one solution I did find was to just have the separate objects and then pipe it into jq -s add, but ... I really wanted it to work the other way. :-)
Test data below:
{
"": [
{ "foo": "d" },
{ "foo": "g" },
{ "foo": "f" }
],
"c": [
{ "foo": "abc" },
{ "foo": "def" }
],
"e": [
{ "foo": "xyz" },
{ "foo": "def" }
],
"ab": [
{ "foo": "def" },
{ "foo": "abc" }
]
}
Maybe this?
jq -S '.[] |= sort_by(.foo)'
Output
{
"": [
{
"foo": "d"
},
{
"foo": "f"
},
{
"foo": "g"
}
],
"ab": [
{
"foo": "abc"
},
{
"foo": "def"
}
],
"c": [
{
"foo": "abc"
},
{
"foo": "def"
}
],
"e": [
{
"foo": "def"
},
{
"foo": "xyz"
}
]
}
#user197693 had a great answer. A suggestion I got in a private message elsewhere was to use
jq -S 'with_entries(.value |= sort_by(.foo))'
If for some reason using the -S command-line option is not a satisfactory option, you can also perform the by-key sort using the to_entries | sort_by(.key) | from_entries idiom. So a complete solution to the problem would be:
.[] |= sort_by(.foo)
| to_entries | sort_by(.key) | from_entries

Using jq find key/value pair based on another key/value pair

I'm pasting here a JSON example data which would require some manipulation to get a desired output which is mentioned in the next section to be read after this piece of JSON code.
I want to use jq for parsing my desired data.
{
"MetricAlarms": [
{
"EvaluationPeriods": 3,
"ComparisonOperator": "GreaterThanOrEqualToThreshold",
"AlarmActions": [
"Unimportant:Random:alarm:ELK2[10.1.1.2]-Root-Disk-Alert"
],
"AlarmName": "Unimportant:Random:alarm:ELK1[10.1.1.0]-Root-Alert",
"Dimensions": [
{
"Name": "path",
"Value": "/"
},
{
"Name": "InstanceType",
"Value": "m5.2xlarge"
},
{
"Name": "fstype",
"Value": "ext4"
}
],
"DatapointsToAlarm": 3,
"MetricName": "disk_used_percent"
},
{
"EvaluationPeriods": 3,
"ComparisonOperator": "GreaterThanOrEqualToThreshold",
"AlarmActions": [
"Unimportant:Random:alarm:ELK2[10.1.1.2]"
],
"AlarmName": "Unimportant:Random:alarm:ELK2[10.1.1.2]",
"Dimensions": [
{
"Name": "path",
"Value": "/"
},
{
"Name": "InstanceType",
"Value": "r5.2xlarge"
},
{
"Name": "fstype",
"Value": "ext4"
}
],
"DatapointsToAlarm": 3,
"MetricName": "disk_used_percent"
}
]
}
So when I Pass some Key1 & value1 as a parameter "Name": "InstanceType", to the JQ probably using cat | jq and output expected should be as below
m5.2xlarge
r5.2xlarge
A generic approach to search for a key-value pair (sk-sv) in input recursively and extract another key's value (pv) from objects found:
jq -r --arg sk Name \
--arg sv InstanceType \
--arg pv Value \
'.. | objects | select(contains({($sk): $sv})) | .[$pv]' file
