how to convert a JSON-String to multiple Structs in Julia - json

I have the following JSON-String:
jsonString="""{
"struct1": {
"arg1": 218650.27,
"arg2": 90
},
"struct2": {
"arg1": 346.4
}
}"""
I know already how to convert a JSON-String to a struct, but not a multiple struct like the JSON File above.
Is there any Pkg that helps in this case, or I have to split the JSON file?

You can parse JSON to get a dictionary of objects using JSON3:
julia> u = JSON3.read_json_str(jsonString)
JSON3.Object{Base.CodeUnits{UInt8, String}, Vector{UInt64}} with 2 entries:
:struct1 => {…
:struct2 => {…
julia> keys(u)
KeySet for a JSON3.Object{Base.CodeUnits{UInt8, String}, Vector{UInt64}} with 2 entries. Keys:
:struct1
:struct2
Than each element can be read as a separate Dict (here I cast it to Dict for readibility):
julia> Dict(u[:struct2])
Dict{Symbol, Any} with 1 entry:
:arg1 => 346.4
julia> Dict(u[:struct1])
Dict{Symbol, Any} with 2 entries:
:arg1 => 2.1865e5
:arg2 => 90
Now suppose you have a dedicated Julia struct to fill-in with those values such as:
Base.#kwdef struct MyStruct
arg1::Float64 = 0.0
arg2::Int = 0
end
If you now want to store your JSON in such struct you can do:
julia> [MyStruct(;u[key]...) for key in keys(u)]
2-element Vector{MyStruct}:
MyStruct(218650.27, 90)
MyStruct(346.4, 0)

Replace Json string in Ruby

First, I have a json:
json = "{\"string_1\": \"{{string_1_value}}\", \"number_1\": \"{{number_1_value}}\"}"
And this hash:
hash = {
"{{string_1_value}}" => "test" //string
"{{number_1_value}}" => 2 //integer
}
What I'd like to do is to replace json with this hash and generate below json.
"{\"string_1\": \"test\", \"number_1\": 2}"
When I do this by String#gsub, I got an Error.
hash.map {|k, v| json.gsub!(k, v)}
=> TypeError (no implicit conversion of Integer into String)
I don't want 2 to be string, i.e.)
"{"string_1": "test", "number_1": "2"}"
Do you have any idea?
Thank you in advance.
First, in ruby comments are marked by # not //. And remember about the comma in hash.
gsub is not the fastest way to replace things, it's better to convert json to regular hash and then convert it again to json.
require 'json'
json = "{\"string_1\": \"{{string_1_value}}\", \"number_1\": \"{{number_1_value}}\"}"
hash = {
"{{string_1_value}}" => "test", #string
"{{number_1_value}}" => 2 #integer
}
# First you should parse your json and change it to hash:
parsed_json = JSON.parse(json)
# Then create keys array
keys = parsed_json.keys
# Create new empty hash
new_hash = {}
# And now fill new hash with keys and values
# (take a look at to_s, it converts values to a String)
hash.each.with_index do |(_k, v), i|
new_hash[keys[i]] = v.to_s
end
# Convert to json at the end
new_hash.to_json
# => "{\"string_1\":\"test\",\"number_1\":\"2\"}"
You can use the Regexp,Hash version of String#gsub to just substitute the patterns with the desired values as follows:
require 'json'
json_string = "{\"string_1\": \"{{string_1_value}}\", \"number_1\": \"{{number_1_value}}\"}"
original_hash= {
"{{string_1_value}}" => "test", #string
"{{number_1_value}}" => 2 #integer
}
#Convert JSON to hash and invert the key value pairs
parsed_json = JSON.parse(json_string).invert
#=>{"{{string_1_value}}"=>"string_1", "{{number_1_value}}"=>"number_1"}
# Convert the hash to JSON and substitute the patterns
original_hash.to_json.gsub(/\{\{.+?\}\}/, parsed_json)
#=> "{\"string_1\":\"test\",\"number_1\":2}"

how to convert from JSON to a parametric nested struct in julia?

stringtest="""{ "struct_A": {
"arg1": {
"arg_B": 90
},
"arg2": 100
}
}"""
jsonDict=JSON.parse(stringtest)
struct struct_B<: myStruct
arg
end
struct struct_A{T<:myStruct}
arg1::T
arg2
function BatteryStorage{T}(arg1,arg2) where {T}
return new{T}(arg1,arg2)
end
end
to_struct=ToStruct.tostruct(struct_A,jsonDict)
why I'm always getting :
LoadError: MethodError: no method matching struct_A(::Dict{String, Any})
caused by: MethodError: Cannot convert an object of type
Dict{String, Any} to an object of type
struct_A
Closest candidates are:
convert(::Type{T}, ::T) where T at essentials.jl:205

Django - Access Json

I have json like this below
{
"id": 1,
"interviewer": "hengtw1",
"incidenttwg1": {
"id": 5,
"child_occupation": [
6
],
},
}
How can i access child_occupation array. All i tried is incidenttwg1['child_occupation'] or ['incidenttwg1']['child_occupation']. Anyway its still doesn't work.
Any Help?? Thanks....
check this if your string is valid json in python
and
refer this to know more about json encoder and decoder
import json
# Decoding json
data = json.loads({"id": 1,"interviewer": "hengtw1","incidenttwg1": {"id": 5,"child_occupation": [6]}})
print(data["incidenttwg1"]["child_occupation"])
# this will print [6] (list)
print(data["incidenttwg1"]["child_occupation"][0])
# this will print 6 (list item)

Using Microsoft.FSharpLu to serialize JSON to a stream

I've been using the Newtonsoft.Json and Newtonsoft.Json.Fsharp libraries to create a new JSON serializer and stream to a file. I like the ability to stream to a file because I'm handling large files and, prior to streaming, often ran into memory issues.
I stream with a simple fx:
open Newtonsoft.Json
open Newtonsoft.Json.FSharp
open System.IO
let writeToJson (path: string) (obj: 'a) : unit =
let serialized = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(obj)
let fileStream = new StreamWriter(path)
let serializer = new JsonSerializer()
serializer.Serialize(fileStream, obj)
fileStream.Close()
This works great. My problem is that the JSON string is then absolutely cluttered with stuff I don't need. For example,
let m =
[
(1.0M, None)
(2.0M, Some 3.0M)
(4.0M, None)
]
let makeType (tup: decimal * decimal option) = {FieldA = fst tup; FieldB = snd tup}
let y = List.map makeType m
Default.serialize y
val it : string =
"[{"FieldA": 1.0},
{"FieldA": 2.0,
"FieldB": {
"Case": "Some",
"Fields": [3.0]
}},
{"FieldA": 4.0}]"
If this is written to a JSON and read into R, there are nested dataframes and any of the Fields associated with a Case end up being a list:
library(jsonlite)
library(dplyr)
q <- fromJSON("default.json")
x <-
q %>%
flatten()
x
> x
FieldA FieldB.Case FieldB.Fields
1 1 <NA> NULL
2 2 Some 3
3 4 <NA> NULL
> sapply(x, class)
FieldA FieldB.Case FieldB.Fields
"numeric" "character" "list"
I don't want to have to handle these things in R. I can do it but it's annoying and, if there are files with many, many columns, it's silly.
This morning, I started looking at the Microsoft.FSharpLu.Json documentation. This library has a Compact.serialize function. Quick tests suggest that this library will eliminate the need for nested dataframes and the lists associated with any Case and Field columns. For example:
Compact.serialize y
val it : string =
"[{
"FieldA": 1.0
},
{
"FieldA": 2.0,
"FieldB": 3.0
},
{
"FieldA": 4.0
}
]"
When this string is read into R,
q <- fromJSON("compact.json")
x <- q
x
> x
FieldA FieldB
1 1 NA
2 2 3
3 4 NA
> sapply(x, class)
FieldA FieldB
"numeric" "numeric
This is much simpler to handle in R. and I'd like to start using this library.
However, I don't know if I can get the Compact serializer to serialize to a stream. I see .serializeToFile, .desrializeStream, and .tryDeserializeStream, but nothing that can serialize to a stream. Does anyone know if Compact can handle writing to a stream? How can I make that work?
The helper to serialize to stream is missing from the Compact module in FSharpLu.Json, but you should be able to do it by following the C# example from
http://www.newtonsoft.com/json/help/html/SerializingJSON.htm. Something along the lines:
let writeToJson (path: string) (obj: 'a) : unit =
let serializer = new JsonSerializer()
serializer.Converters.Add(new Microsoft.FSharpLu.Json.CompactUnionJsonConverter())
use sw = new StreamWriter(path)
use writer = new JsonTextWriter(sw)
serializer.Serialize(writer, obj)

Scala 2.10: Array + JSON arrays to hashmap

After reading a JSON result from a web service response:
val jsonResult: JsValue = Json.parse(response.body)
Containing content something like:
{
result: [
["Name 1", "Row1 Val1", "Row1 Val2"],
["Name 2", "Row2 Val1", "Row2 Val2"]
]
}
How can I efficiently map the contents of the result array in the JSON with a list (or something similar) like:
val keys = List("Name", "Val1", "Val2")
To get an array of hashmaps?
Something like this ?
This solution is functional and handles None/Failure cases "properly" (by returning a None)
val j = JSON.parseFull( json ).asInstanceOf[ Option[ Map[ String, List[ List[ String ] ] ] ] ]
val res = j.map { m ⇒
val r = m get "result"
r.map { ll ⇒
ll.foldRight( List(): List[ Map[ String, String ] ] ) { ( l, acc ) ⇒
Map( ( "Name" -> l( 0 ) ), ( "Val1" -> l( 1 ) ), ( "Val2" -> l( 2 ) ) ) :: acc
}
}.getOrElse(None)
}.getOrElse(None)
Note 1: I had to put double quotes around result in the JSON String to get the JSON parser to work
Note 2: the code could look nicer using more "monadic" sugar such as for comprehensions or using applicative functors
