Nested dicts and lists / glom lib python - json

Question

I am trying to access deep-nested lists and dictionaries. I am experimenting with the glom library however my Third_KV key doesn't work on the below JSON object when trying to retrieve the "Country"
from glom import glom
target = {
"Result": {
"Topics": [
{
"A": "abc",
"D": 0,
"Questions": [
{
"E": "jklm",
"P": "dsfs",
"Answers": [
{
"first": "string",
"second": "string",
"Country": "CH"
},
{
"first": "string",
"second": "string",
"Country": "NL"
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
}
path = {
"First_KV": ("Result.Topics", ["Questions"]),
"Second_KV": ("Result.Topics", [("Questions", ["Answers"])]),
"Third_KV": ("Result.Topics", [("Questions", "Answers", ["Country"])])
}
countries = glom(target, path["Third_KV"])

Answer 1

Not very clear what final json/array/structure you want, but without relying on any library, can you not use simple map() e.g.
const jsonTest = {
"Result": {
"Topics": [{
"A": "abc",
"D": 0,
"Questions": [{
"E": "jklm",
"P": "dsfs",
"Answers": [{
"first": "CHfirstCountry",
"second": "CHsecondCountry",
"Country": "CH"
},
{
"first": "NLfirstCountry",
"second": "NLsecondCountry",
"Country": "NL"
}
]
}]
}]
}
};
const AnswersArray = jsonTest.Result.Topics[0].Questions[0].Answers;
let dictPerCountry = new Object();
AnswersArray.map((eachElement) => {
dictPerCountry[eachElement.Country] = [eachElement.first, eachElement.second];
});
console.log({
dictPerCountry
});
dictPerCountry will look like so:
{
"dictPerCountry": {
"CH": [
"CHfirstCountry",
"CHsecondCountry"
],
"NL": [
"NLfirstCountry",
"NLsecondCountry"
]
}
}

Answer 2

Answers are of "list" type too and you are missing its square brackets. check below pattern to get the country
pattern = ('Result.Topics', [('Questions', [('Answers', ['Country'])])])
So you need to change your dictionary "path" to be
path = {
"First_KV": ("Result.Topics", ["Questions"]),
"Second_KV": ("Result.Topics", [("Questions", ["Answers"])]),
"Third_KV": ('Result.Topics', [('Questions', [('Answers', ['Country'])])])
}
