I am trying to parse a json file and extract the value of a key from it, and pass it to another post request. However, I am not able to extract they value, when I try, it prints the key itself instead of value
PFB the json file
{
"data":{
"isActivated":true,
"userDetails":{

The code below:
I had tried almost all means, not sure what am i missing.
apitoken = RestClient.post("https://", {'email'=>arg,'password'=>'abcs','deviceUUId'=>'udid', 'deviceTypeId'=>1}.to_json, { "Content-Type" => 'application/json','buildNumber' => '000','deviceTypeId'=>'9'})
puts apitoken
puts "**************"
puts apitoken["apiToken"]
logindetails = JSON.parse(apitoken)
tada = JSON.parse(logindetails)['data']['apitoken']
puts tada
puts logindetails
result = logindetails["data"]["apiToken"]
puts result
puts "**************"
logindetails.each do |logindetail|
puts logindetail
puts logindetail["apiToken]
puts "**************"
end
result = logindetails['apiToken']
puts result
end
The output I get is apiToken instead of the value of it. Any help is greatly appreciated.
The token is under data userDetails apiToken:
json['data']['userDetails']['apiToken'] #=> f5c95fd8-efc4-497e-8128-51a014de3a9a

I'm at a lost and my searches have gotten me nowhere.
In my seeds.rb file I have the following code
require 'json'
jsonfile = File.open 'db/search_result2.json'
jsondata = JSON.load jsonfile
#jsondata = JSON.parse(jsonfile)
jsondata[].each do |data|
Jobpost.create!(post: data['title'],
link: data['link'],
image: data['pagemap']['cse_image']['src'] )
end
Snippet of the json file looks like this:
{
"kind": "customsearch#result",
"title": "Careers Open Positions - Databricks",
"link": "https://databricks.com/company/careers/open-positions",
"pagemap": {
"cse_image": [
{
"src": "https://databricks.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/careeers-new-og-image-sept20.jpg"
}
]
}
},
Fixed jsondata[].each to jasondata.each. Now I'm getting the following error:
TypeError: no implicit conversion of String into Integer
jsondata[] says to call the [] method with no arguments on the object in the jsondata variable. Normally [] would take an index like jsondata[0] to get the first element or a start and length like jsondata[0, 5] to get the first five elements.
You want to call the each method on jsondata, so jsondata.each.
So this is very specific to what you have posted:
require 'json'
file = File.open('path_to_file.json').read
json_data = JSON.parse file
p json_data['kind'] #=> "customsearch#result"
# etc for all the other keys
now maybe the json you posted is just the first element in an array:
[
{}, // where each {} is the json you posted
{},
{},
// etc
]
in which case you will indeed have to iterate:
require 'json'
file = File.open('path_to_file.json').read
json_data = JSON.parse file
json_data.each do |data|
p data['kind'] #=> "customsearch#result"
end
Asking for a advice what would be in your opinion best and simple solution to replace and access values in nested hash or json by path ir variable using ruby?
For example imagine I have json or hash with this kind of structure:
{
"name":"John",
"address":{
"street":"street 1",
"country":"country1"
},
"phone_numbers":[
{
"type":"mobile",
"number":"234234"
},
{
"type":"fixed",
"number":"2342323423"
}
]
}
And I would like to access or change fixed mobile number by path which could be specified in variable like this: "phone_numbers/1/number" (separator does not matter in this case)
This solution is necessary to retrieve values from json/hash and sometimes replace variables by specifying path to it. Found some solutions which can find value by key, but this solution wouldn't work as there is some hashes/json where key name is same in multiple places.
I saw this one: https://github.com/chengguangnan/vine , but it does not work when payload is like this as it is not kinda hash in this case:
[
{
"value":"test1"
},
{
"value":"test2"
}
]
Hope you have some great ideas how to solve this problem.
Thank you!
EDIT:
So I tried code below with this data:
x = JSON.parse('[
{
"value":"test1"
},
{
"value":"test2"
}
]')
y = JSON.parse('{
"name":"John",
"address":{
"street":"street 1",
"country":"country1"
},
"phone_numbers":[
{
"type":"mobile",
"number":"234234"
},
{
"type":"fixed",
"number":"2342323423"
}
]
}')
p x
p y.to_h
p x.get_at_path("0/value")
p y.get_at_path("name")
And got this:
[{"value"=>"test1"}, {"value"=>"test2"}]
{"name"=>"John", "address"=>{"street"=>"street 1", "country"=>"country1"}, "phone_numbers"=>[{"type"=>"mobile", "number"=>"234234"}, {"type"=>"fixed", "number"=>"2342323423"}]}
hash_new.rb:91:in `<main>': undefined method `get_at_path' for [{"value"=>"test1"}, {"value"=>"test2"}]:Array (NoMethodError)
For y.get_at_path("name") got nil
You can make use of Hash.dig to get the sub-values, it'll keep calling dig on the result of each step until it reaches the end, and Array has dig as well, so when you reach that array things will keep working:
# you said the separator wasn't important, so it can be changed up here
SEPERATOR = '/'.freeze
class Hash
def get_at_path(path)
dig(*steps_from(path))
end
def replace_at_path(path, new_value)
*steps, leaf = steps_from path
# steps is empty in the "name" example, in that case, we are operating on
# the root (self) hash, not a subhash
hash = steps.empty? ? self : dig(*steps)
# note that `hash` here doesn't _have_ to be a Hash, but it needs to
# respond to `[]=`
hash[leaf] = new_value
end
private
# the example hash uses symbols as the keys, so we'll convert each step in
# the path to symbols. If a step doesn't contain a non-digit character,
# we'll convert it to an integer to be treated as the index into an array
def steps_from path
path.split(SEPERATOR).map do |step|
if step.match?(/\D/)
step.to_sym
else
step.to_i
end
end
end
end
and then it can be used as such (hash contains your sample input):
p hash.get_at_path("phone_numbers/1/number") # => "2342323423"
p hash.get_at_path("phone_numbers/0/type") # => "mobile"
p hash.get_at_path("name") # => "John"
p hash.get_at_path("address/street") # => "street 1"
hash.replace_at_path("phone_numbers/1/number", "123-123-1234")
hash.replace_at_path("phone_numbers/0/type", "cell phone")
hash.replace_at_path("name", "John Doe")
hash.replace_at_path("address/street", "123 Street 1")
p hash.get_at_path("phone_numbers/1/number") # => "123-123-1234"
p hash.get_at_path("phone_numbers/0/type") # => "cell phone"
p hash.get_at_path("name") # => "John Doe"
p hash.get_at_path("address/street") # => "123 Street 1"
p hash
# => {:name=>"John Doe",
# :address=>{:street=>"123 Street 1", :country=>"country1"},
# :phone_numbers=>[{:type=>"cell phone", :number=>"234234"},
# {:type=>"fixed", :number=>"123-123-1234"}]}
I've created a basic client and server that pass a string, which I've changed to JSON instead. But the JSON string is only parsable before it gets sent through TCP. After it's sent, the string version is identical (after a chomp), but on the server side it no longer processes the JSON correctly. Here is some of my code (with other bits trimmed)
Some of the client code
require 'json'
require 'socket'
foo = {'a' => 1, 'b' => 2, 'c' => 3}
puts foo.to_s + "......."
foo.to_json
puts foo['b'] # => outputs the correct '2' answer
client = TCPSocket.open('localhost', 2000)
client.puts json
client.close;
Some of the server code
require 'socket'
require 'json'
server = TCPServer.open(2000)
while true
client = server.accept # Accept client
response = client.gets
print response
response = response.chomp
response.to_json
puts response['b'] # => outputs 'b'
end
The output 'b' should be '2' instead. How do I fix this?
Thanks
In your server you wrote response.to_json. This turns a string to JSON, then throws it away. And I don't like the .chomp, either.
Try
response = client.gets
hash = JSON.parse(response)
Now hash is a Ruby Hash object with your data in it, and hash['b'] should work correctly.
The problem is that .to_json does not parse JSON inside a string and replace itself with the result. It is used to convert the string into a format that is an acceptable JSON value.
require 'json'
string = "abc"
puts string
puts string.to_json
This will output:
abc
"abc"
The method is added to the String class by the JSON generator and it uses it internally to generate the JSON document.
But why does your response['b'] return "b"?
Because Ruby strings have a method called [] that can be used to:
Return a substring: "abc"[0,2] => "ab"
Return a single character from index: "abc"[1] => "b"
Return a substring if the string contains it: "abc"["bc"] => "bc", "abc"["fg"] => nil
Return a regexp match: "abc"[/^a([a-z])c/, 1] => "b"
and possibly some other ways I can't think of right now.
So this happens because your response is a string that has the character "b" in it:
response = "something with a b"
puts response["b"]
# outputs b
puts response["x"]
# outputs a blank line because response does not contain "x".
Instead of .to_json your code has to call JSON.parse or JSON.load:
data = JSON.parse(response)
puts data['b']
I need to extract only the value for 'admins' from this Json using Ruby :
JSON -
{
"Roles":[
{
"admins":[
"me"
],
"role":"cleanup"
},
{
"admins":[
"tester"
],
"role":"create a mess"
},
]
}
RUBY -
require 'json'
file = File.read('adminlist_Feb_2017.json')
thismonthlist=JSON.parse(file)
puts thismonthlist['admins']
Output - this gives me a blank output however if i change the last line to :
puts thismonthlist['Roles']
it gives me everything. I just want the list of admins.
Try something like this
thismonthlist[:Roles].flat_map { |role| role[:admins] }
=> ["me", "tester"]
admins = []
File.open('adminlist_Feb_2017.json', 'r') do |file|
json = JSON.parse(file.read)
admins = json["Roles"].flat_map{|role| role["admins"]}.uniq
end
admins
# => ["me", "tester"]
I open the file and process it in a block to ensure it's closed at the end. In the block I read the file content and parse the json string into a hash. Then I go through the "Roles" of the hash, grab the "admins" arrays and return it as one array only with Enumerable#flat_map. After I use Enumerable#uniq to return each admin only once.
Logstash is awesome. I can send it JSON like this (multi-lined for readability):
{
"a": "one"
"b": {
"alpha":"awesome"
}
}
And then query for that line in kibana using the search term b.alpha:awesome. Nice.
However I now have a JSON log line like this:
{
"different":[
{
"this": "one",
"that": "uno"
},
{
"this": "two"
}
]
}
And I'd like to be able to find this line with a search like different.this:two (or different.this:one, or different.that:uno)
If I was using Lucene directly I'd iterate through the different array, and generate a new search index for each hash within it, but Logstash currently seems to ingest that line like this:
different: {this: one, that: uno}, {this: two}
Which isn't going to help me searching for log lines using different.this or different.that.
Any got any thoughts as to a codec, filter or code change I can make to enable this?
You can write your own filter (copy & paste, rename the class name, the config_name and rewrite the filter(event) method) or modify the current JSON filter (source on Github)
You can find the JSON filter (Ruby class) source code in the following path logstash-1.x.x\lib\logstash\filters named as json.rb. The JSON filter parse the content as JSON as follows
begin
# TODO(sissel): Note, this will not successfully handle json lists
# like your text is '[ 1,2,3 ]' JSON.parse gives you an array (correctly)
# which won't merge into a hash. If someone needs this, we can fix it
# later.
dest.merge!(JSON.parse(source))
# If no target, we target the root of the event object. This can allow
# you to overwrite #timestamp. If so, let's parse it as a timestamp!
if !#target && event[TIMESTAMP].is_a?(String)
# This is a hack to help folks who are mucking with #timestamp during
# their json filter. You aren't supposed to do anything with
# "#timestamp" outside of the date filter, but nobody listens... ;)
event[TIMESTAMP] = Time.parse(event[TIMESTAMP]).utc
end
filter_matched(event)
rescue => e
event.tag("_jsonparsefailure")
#logger.warn("Trouble parsing json", :source => #source,
:raw => event[#source], :exception => e)
return
end
You can modify the parsing procedure to modify the original JSON
json = JSON.parse(source)
if json.is_a?(Hash)
json.each do |key, value|
if value.is_a?(Array)
value.each_with_index do |object, index|
#modify as you need
object["index"]=index
end
end
end
end
#save modified json
......
dest.merge!(json)
then you can modify your config file to use the/your new/modified JSON filter and place in \logstash-1.x.x\lib\logstash\config
This is mine elastic_with_json.conf with a modified json.rb filter
input{
stdin{
}
}filter{
json{
source => "message"
}
}output{
elasticsearch{
host=>localhost
}stdout{
}
}
if you want to use your new filter you can configure it with the config_name
class LogStash::Filters::Json_index < LogStash::Filters::Base
config_name "json_index"
milestone 2
....
end
and configure it
input{
stdin{
}
}filter{
json_index{
source => "message"
}
}output{
elasticsearch{
host=>localhost
}stdout{
}
}
Hope this helps.
For a quick and dirty hack, I used the Ruby filter and below code , no need to use the out of box 'json' filter anymore
input {
stdin{}
}
filter {
grok {
match => ["message","(?<json_raw>.*)"]
}
ruby {

{

}
The solution I liked is the ruby filter because that requires us to not write another filter. However, that solution creates fields that are on the "root" of JSON and it's hard to keep track of how the original document looked.
I came up with something similar that's easier to follow and is a recursive solution so it's cleaner.
ruby {
init => "
def arrays_to_hash(h)
h.each do |k,v|
# If v is nil, an array is being iterated and the value is k.
# If v is not nil, a hash is being iterated and the value is v.
value = v || k
if value.is_a?(Array)
# "value" is replaced with "value_hash" later.
value_hash = {}
value.each_with_index do |v, i|
value_hash[i.to_s] = v
end
h[k] = value_hash
end
if value.is_a?(Hash) || value.is_a?(Array)
arrays_to_hash(value)
end
end
end
"
code => "arrays_to_hash(event.to_hash)"
}
It converts arrays to has with each key as the index number. More details:- http://blog.abhijeetr.com/2016/11/logstashelasticsearch-best-way-to.html
