I have the following json in this format:
{
"HATg": {
"id": "208-2",
"code": "225a"
"state" : True
},
"PROPEMPTY": {
"id": "208-3",
"code": "225b"
"state" False
}
}
Was wondering how do I access/grab both the id and code as I iterate each items in the file in a pythonic way? Like for i in items...
By the way, the contents in the json file differ as it is manipulate by user adding in different contents. Apologize in advance if I am not using any terms as I am not sure what they are called
Assuming your "JSON" looks more like this:
{
"HATg": {
"id": "208-2",
"code": "225a",
"state": true
},
"PROPEMPTY": {
"id": "208-3",
"code": "225b",
"state": false
}
}
and that you have succesfully parsed it into a Python object (for example, by using j = json.load(jsonfile)), then it's trivial to iterate through it in Python (assuming Python 3):
>>> for key, value in j.items():
... print("{}: {}, {}".format(key, value['id'], value['code']))
...
PROPEMPTY: 208-3, 225b
HATg: 208-2, 225a
What you have here is a python dictionary and not a json. You can iterate them like this:
a = {
"HATg": {
"id": "208-2",
"code": "225a",
"state" : True
},
"PROPEMPTY": {
"id": "208-3",
"code": "225b",
"state" : False
}
}
for i in a:
print i
print a[i]['id'], a[i]['code']
This will give the output as
PROPEMPTY
208-3 225b
HATg
208-2 225a

JSON:
{
"status": "success",
"data": {
"9": {
"1695056": {
"id": "1695056",
[...]
},
"csevents": {
"2807": {
"id": "2807",
"startdate": "2019-01-24 18:45:00",
"service_texts": [],
"eventTemplate": "1"
},
"2810": {
"id": "2810",
"startdate": "2019-01-31 18:45:00",
"service_texts": [],
"eventTemplate": "1"
}
}
},
"1695309": {
"id": "1695309",
[...]
},
"csevents": {
"3601": {
"id": "3601",
"startdate": "2019-05-17 18:45:00",
"service_texts": [],
"eventTemplate": "1"
}
I try to get the members from "csevents" ("2807", "2810", 3601") with python. Problem is that i don't know the IDs in "9" ("1695056", "1695309") while coding.
So i tried to iterate through "9" and then through "csevents" but if i iterate through "9" i only get a string so i can't iterate through "csevents" anymore.
Python:
for whatever in json_object['data']['9']:
for id in whatever['csevents']:
print(id)
So that doesn't work. Does anybody know how I can solve that?
Thanks
Had to clean up your JSON string to get it to work, but looking at your solution is seems like you're iterating directly from your dict, what you should be using is .items() or .values():
for key, value in json_object['data']['9'].items():
# We can use .keys() here since we only need the IDs from csevents
csevent_keys = list(value['csevents'].keys())
print(csevent_keys)
# Output
['2807', '2810']
['3601']
I have the following dictionary in python which I'm saving into a file:
d2 = {
"CHARACTER": {
"IDENTITY": {
"FORM": {
"id": "BK1",
"type": "MAGE",
"role": "DARK"
}
},
"USER": {
"owner": {
"id": "SABBATH13"
},
"level": "16"
}
}
}
jsonfile = open('d2.json', 'w')
jsonfile.write(simplejson.dumps(d2, indent=4))
jsonfile.close()
However, I'm told this is a JSON object, which I need to turn into a JSON array of the form:
[{
"CHARACTER": {
"IDENTITY": {
"FORM": {
"id": "BK1",
"type": "MAGE",
"role": "DARK"
}
},
"USER": {
"owner": {
"id": "SABBATH13"
},
"level": "16"
}
}
}]
Which is essentially adding square brackets at the beginning and end.
What is the proper way to do this? Should I convert to string and add brackets, then convert back? Sorry, total JSON newbie here.
You're thinking at the wrong level of abstraction. It's not about the brackets, it's about that you have a data structure which is an object, when what you apparently need is a list/array of objects (even if there's just one object in the list). So:
d2 = [d2]
Now dumps this and you get what you need.
I have a JSON object which I want to flatten before exporting it to CSV. I'd like to use the flatten_json module for this.
My JSON input looks like this:
{
"responseStatus": "SUCCESS",
"responseDetails": {
"total": 5754
},
"data": [
{
"id": 1324651
},
{
"id": 5686131
},
{
"id": 2165735
},
{
"id": 2133256
}
]
}
Easy so far even for a beginner like me, but what I'm interesting in exporting is only the data array. So, I would think of this:
data_json = json["data"]
flat_json = flatten_json.flatten(data_json)
Which doesn't work, since data is an array, stored as a list in Python, not as a dictionary:
[
{
"id": 1324651
},
{
"id": 5686131
},
{
"id": 2165735
},
{
"id": 2133256
}
]
How should I proceed to feed the content of the data array into the flatten_json function?
Thanks!
R.
This function expects a ditionary, let's pass one:
flat_json = flatten_json.flatten({'data': data_json})
Output:
{'data_0_id': 1324651, 'data_1_id': 5686131, 'data_2_id': 2165735, 'data_3_id': 2133256}
You can choose the keys you want to ignore when you call the flatten method. For example, in your case, you can do the following.
flatten_json.flatten(dic, root_keys_to_ignore={'responseStatus', 'responseDetails'})
where dic is the original JSON input.
This will give as output:
{'data_0_id': 1324651, 'data_1_id': 5686131, 'data_2_id': 2165735, 'data_3_id': 2133256}
I need to make a get (id, name, fraction id) for each deputy in this json
{
"id": "75785",
"title": "(за основу)",
"asozdUrl": null,
"datetime": "2011-12-21T12:20:26+0400",
"votes": [
{
"deputy": {
"id": "99111772",
"name": "Абалаков Александр Николаевич",
"faction": {
"id": "72100004",
"title": "КПРФ"
}
},
"result": "accept"
},
{
"deputy": {
"id": "99100491",
"name": "Абдулатипов Рамазан Гаджимурадович",
"faction": {
"id": "72100024",
"title": "ЕР"
}
},
"result": "none"
}
.......,` etc
My code is looks like that:
urlData = "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/data-dumaGovRu/vote/master/poll/2011-12-21/75785.json"
response = urllib.request.urlopen(urlData)
content = response.read()
data = json.loads(content.decode("utf8"))
for i in data:
#print(data["name"])
`
And i dont know what to do with that #print line, how I should write it?
You can access the list containing the deputies with data['votes']. Iterating through the list, you can access the keys you're interested in as you would with dict key lookups. Nested dicts imply you have to walk through the keys starting from the root to your point of interest:
for d in data['votes']:
print(d['deputy']['id'], d['deputy']['name'], d['deputy']['faction']['id'])
I would like to make the following JSON syntax output with python:
data={
"timestamp": "1462868427",
"sites": [
{
"name": "SiteA",
"zone": 1
},
{
"name": "SiteB",
"zone": 7
}
]
}
But I cannot manage to get the 'outer' data key there.
So far I got this output without the data key:
{
"timestamp": "1462868427",
"sites": [
{
"name": "SiteA",
"zone": 1
},
{
"name": "SiteB",
"zone": 7
}
]
}
I have tried with this python code:
sites = [
{
"name":"nameA",
"zone":123
},
{
"name":"nameB",
"zone":324
}
]
data = {
"timestamp": 123456567,
"sites": sites
}
print(json.dumps(data, indent = 4))
But how do I manage to get the outer 'data' key there?
Once you have your data ready, you can simply do this :
data = {'data': data}
JSON doesn't have =, it's all key:value.
What you're looking for is
data = {
"data": {
"timestamp": 123456567,
"sites": sites
}
}
json.dumps(data)
json.dumps() doesn't care for the name you give to the data object in python. You have to specify it manually inside the object, as a string.
