We are tying to format a json similar to this:
[
{"id": 1,
"type": "A",
"changes": [
{"id": 12},
{"id": 13}
],
"wanted_key": "good",
"unwanted_key": "aaa"
},
{"id": 2,
"type": "A",
"unwanted_key": "aaa"
},
{"id": 3,
"type": "B",
"changes": [
{"id": 31},
{"id": 32}
],
"unwanted_key": "aaa",
"unwanted_key2": "aaa"
},
{"id": 4,
"type": "B",
"unwanted_key3": "aaa"
},
null,
null,
{"id": 7}
]
into something like this:
[
{
"id": 1,
"type": "A",
"wanted_key": true # every record must have this key/value
},
{
"id": 12, # note: this was in the "changes" property of record id 1
"type": "A", # type should be the same type than record id 1
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 13, # note: this was in the "changes" property of record id 1
"type": "A", # type should be the same type than record id 1
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 2,
"type": "A",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 3,
"type": "B",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 31, # note: this was in the "changes" property of record id 3
"type": "B", # type should be the same type than record id 3
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 32, # note: this was in the "changes" property of record id 3
"type": "B", # type should be the same type than record id 3
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 4,
"type": "B",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 7,
"type": "UNKN", # records without a type should have this type
"wanted_key": true
}
]
So far, I've been able to:
What we are missing:
changes
key, create new records with the type
of their parent recordUnfortunately we are not entirely sure how to proceed... Any help would be appreciated.
So far our jq goes like this: del(..|nulls) | map({id, type: (.type // "UNKN"), wanted_key: (true)}) | del(..|nulls)
del(..|nulls) | map({id, type: (.type // "UNKN"), wanted_key: (true)}) | del(..|nulls)
Here's our test code:
The following should work:
map(select(values))
| map(., .type as $type | (.changes[]? + {$type}))
| map({id, type: (.type // "UNKN"), wanted_key: true})
Multiple map
calls can usually be combined, so this becomes:
map(
select(values)
| ., (.type as $type | (.changes[]? + {$type}))
| {id, type: (.type // "UNKN"), wanted_key: true}
)
Another option without variables:
map(
select(values)
| ., .changes[]? + {type}
| {id, type: (.type // "UNKN"), wanted_key: true}
)
# or:
map(select(values))
| map(., .changes[]? + {type})
| map({id, type: (.type // "UNKN"), wanted_key: true})
or even with a separate normalization step for the unknown type:
map(select(values))
| map(.type //= "UNKN")
| map(., .changes[]? + {type})
| map({id, type, wanted_key: true})
# condensed to a single line:
map(select(values) | .type //= "UNKN" | ., .changes[]? + {type} | {id, type, wanted_key: true})
Explanation:
"UNKN"
Here's one way:
map(
select(values)
| (.type // "UNKN") as $type
| ., .changes[]?
| {id, $type, wanted_key: true}
)
[
{
"id": 1,
"type": "A",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 12,
"type": "A",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 13,
"type": "A",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 2,
"type": "A",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 3,
"type": "B",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 31,
"type": "B",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 32,
"type": "B",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 4,
"type": "B",
"wanted_key": true
},
{
"id": 7,
"type": "UNKN",
"wanted_key": true
}
]
Something like below should work
map(
select(type == "object") |
( {id}, {id : ( .changes[]? .id )} ) +
{ type: (.type // "UNKN"), wanted_key: true }
)
