I'm exploring the use of JSON exported Google Sheets as database for Apps Script.
The fetched url follows the structure:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/DOCUMENTID/gviz/tq?tqx=out:json&gid=SHEETID
JSON.json
{
"reqId": "0",
"sig": "000",
"status": "ok",
"table": {
"cols": [
{
"id": "A",
"label": "",
"type": "string"
},
{
"id": "B",
"label": "",
"type": "string"
},
{
"id": "C",
"label": "",
"type": "string"
}
],
"parsedNumHeaders": 0,
"rows": [
{
"c": [
{
"v": "Data 1-1"
},
{
"v": "Data 1-2"
},
{
"v": "Data 1-3"
}
]
},
{
"c": [
{
"v": "Data 2-1"
},
{
"v": "Data 2-2"
},
{
"v": "Data 2-3"
}
]
},
{
"c": [
{
"v": "Emails"
},
{
"v": "Ids"
},
{
"v": "Names"
}
]
}
]
},
"version": "0.6"
}
In this function I'm getting returned an array of values for the C column:
dataArray = [Data 1-3, Data 2-3]
function getRolePermission(databaseUrl) {
let databaseParsed = JSON.parse(UrlFetchApp.fetch(databaseUrl).getContentText().match(/(?<=.*\().*(?=\);)/s)[0]);
let tableLength = Object.keys(databaseParsed.table.rows).length;
let dataArray = [];
for (let i = 0; i < tableLength; i++) {
dataArray.push(databaseParsed.table.rows[i].c[2].v)
}
return dataArray;
}
It works well, but I don't know how to make this function more generic, so I call it with (url, headerName) arguments to get an array with the values of a column. Something like:
function getRolePermission(databaseUrl, headerName) {
// CODE ??
return dataArray;
}
getRolePermission('https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lc...', 'Emails')
to get dataArray = [Data 1-3, Data 2-3], so if I change the order of columns I'm still getting the same results.
dataArray.push(databaseParsed.table.rows[i].c[2].v)
You just need to find the index 2 here to make the function more generic. The table.cols should give you the column headers, but it is not doing that because parsedNumHeaders is 0 in your case. To manually set number of headers, use &headers=1. The url should look like:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/DOCUMENTID/gviz/tq?tqx=out:json&gid=SHEETID&headers=1
The response then would look like:
{
"reqId": "0",
"sig": "000",
"status": "ok",
"table": {
"cols": [
{
"id": "A",
"label": "Names",
"type": "string"
},
{
"id": "B",
"label": "Ids",
"type": "string"
},
{
"id": "C",
"label": "Emails",
"type": "string"
}
],
"parsedNumHeaders": 1,
"rows": [
{
"c": [
{
"v": "Data 1-1"
},
{
"v": "Data 1-2"
},
{
"v": "Data 1-3"
}
]
},
{
"c": [
{
"v": "Data 2-1"
},
{
"v": "Data 2-2"
},
{
"v": "Data 2-3"
}
]
}
]
},
"version": "0.6"
}
Once you get the headers, you can find the index:
const columnNeeded = databaseParsed.table.cols.findIndex(obj => obj.label === headerName/*"Emails"*/);
Then, use it in your function
dataArray.push(databaseParsed.table.rows[i].c[columnNeeded].v)

Trying to get my head around this one..
Incoming data looks like:
[
{
"value": {
"label": "MZ Algal bloom",
"type": "case",
"incident": {
"name": "Algal bloom"
},
"personName": "Lionel Carter"
}
},
{
"value": {
"label": "BW Algal bloom",
"type": "case",
"incident": {
"name": "Algal bloom"
},
"personName": "Jerome Yost"
}
},
{
"value": {
"label": "Detergent",
"type": "case",
"incident": null,
"personName": "Jerald Legros"
}
}
]
I would like to transform this into
[
{
"label": "Algal bloom",
"children": [
{ "label": "Lionel Carter", "type": "case"},
{ "label": "Jerome Yost", "type": "case" }]
},
{ "label": "Detergent", "type": "case" }
]
Basically, the rule is that if incident is not NULL then the incident name becomes the parent and the children hold the personName - otherwise we simply pass through the label and type. I can walk the array and switch out the label with the incident name, but I'm not sure how to group up the incidents..
It's basic grouping with an exception for elements without incident.
You can group the elements without incident in a separate group:
const data = [{"value": {"label": "MZ Algal bloom","type": "case","incident": {"name": "Algal bloom"},"personName": "Lionel Carter"}},{"value": {"label": "BW Algal bloom","type": "case","incident": {"name": "Algal bloom"},"personName": "Jerome Yost"}},{"value": {"label": "Detergent","type": "case","incident": null,"personName": "Jerald Legros"}}];
function group(data) {
const result = data.reduce((acc, { value }) => {
if (!value.incident) {
acc.ungrouped.push({ label: value.label, type: value.type });
} else {
if (!acc.groups[value.incident.name]) acc.groups[value.incident.name] = { label: value.incident.name, children: [] };
acc.groups[value.incident.name].children.push({ label: value.personName, type: value.type });
}
return acc;
}, { groups: {}, ungrouped: [] });
return [...Object.values(result.groups), ...result.ungrouped];
}
console.log(group(data));
How to get the data value from the list, the size of the array, the main thing is not through the index, because the order of the arrays can change and I can get specific data from the code === "size". Unfortunately, the structure cannot be changed. It came to mind only through the filter, by index, but it is impossible
The result should be 100 150

[
[
"color",
{
"name": "Цвет",
"code": "color",
"list": [
{
"value": "Зеленый"
},
{
"value": "Красный"
}
]
}
],
[
"size",
{
"name": "Размер",
"code": "size",
"list": [
{
"value": "100"
},
{
"value": "150"
}
]
}
]
]
This data structure is terrible, but a quick fix could be something like this
const data = [
[
"color",
{
"name": "Цвет",
"code": "color",
"list": [
{
"value": "Зеленый"
},
{
"value": "Красный"
}
]
}
],
[
"size",
{
"name": "Размер",
"code": "size",
"list": [
{
"value": "100"
},
{
"value": "150"
}
]
}
]
]
const size = data.filter(element => element[1].code === 'size')[0][1].list.map(element => element.value)
console.log(size)
I have a data object with following contents:
{
"content": {
"id": "someID",
"type": "unit",
"method": "xyz",
"blocks": [{
"key": "blue",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "red",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "yellow",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "black",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}],
"notes": "abc"
}
}
I want to remove block that has key yellow, by looping over blocks, rest of the data should be preserved as is. So expected end result would be
{
"content": {
"id": "someID",
"type": "unit",
"method": "xyz",
"blocks": [{
"key": "blue",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "red",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "black",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}],
"notes": "abc"
}
}
Data is dynamic so I dont know what would be returned, it might have a match for my condition or it might not.
I've tried a bunch of approaches but nothing seems to have worked so far. I can use lodash too if its any easier. None of those seems to be working. Any help/direction is appreciated
1. Using **delete**
const deleteUnwantedBlock = contentObj => {
const updatedData = contentObj;
const blocks = _.get(updatedData, 'blocks', []);
blocks.forEach(block => {
if (block.key.includes('yellow')) {
delete updatedData.block;
}
});
return updatedData;
};
console.log(deleteUnwantedBlock(data.content));```
2. Using rest operator:
const deleteUnwantedBlock = contentObj => {
const blocks = _.get(contentObj, 'blocks', []);
blocks.forEach(block => {
if (block.key.includes('yellow')) {
let { block, ...restOfTheData } = updatedData;
}
return { ...updatedEntry };
});
};
console.log(deleteUnwantedBlock(data.content));
You just need to filter:
const obj = {
"content": {
"id": "someID",
"type": "unit",
"method": "xyz",
"blocks": [{
"key": "blue",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "red",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "yellow",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}, {
"key": "black",
"data": [
"Array"
]
}],
"notes": "abc"
}
};
obj.content.blocks = obj.content.blocks.filter(({ key }) => key !== 'yellow');
console.log(obj);

Find by key deep in a nested array

Closed 4 years ago.
I have a Javascript object with lots of different sections. How can I search through all of the sections to find the position of a specific ID? The ID's that I am searching for are not in a specific location, and can be located in any of the tree branches.
For example, I am searching for this ID:
xobmnbjxg0g_1527269346261
And I am trying to output the position of that ID, which would be this:
app['structure'][0]['if-children'][0]['id']

Interesting puzzle/question.
pretty sure there are some edge cases im missing but this seems to pass some tests.
function is(obj, type){
return Object.prototype.toString.call(obj) === `[object ${type}]`;
}
function findPosition(obj, mykey, myval, res){
if(is(obj, "Object")){
if(mykey in obj && obj[mykey] === myval){
res.tree.push(mykey);
res.found = true;
} else {
for( let key in obj){
if(res.found) break;
res.tree.push(key);
findPosition(obj[key], mykey, myval, res);
}
if(!res.found) res.tree.pop();
}
} else if(is(obj, "Array")){
for(let i = 0; i < obj.length; i++){
if(res.found) break;
res.tree.push(i);
findPosition(obj[i], mykey, myval, res);
}
if(!res.found) res.tree.pop();
} else {
res.tree.pop();
}
return res;
}
Usage and output
findPosition([{one: { two: [{id: [{id:'my'}]}]}}], "id", "mys", {tree:[], found: false})
> tree: Array(0), found: false}
findPosition([{one: { two: [{id: [{id:'my'}]}]}}], "id", "my", {tree:[], found: false})
> {found: true, tree: [0, "one", "two", 0, "id", 0, "id"]}
For finding if current obj you are iterating over is an Array you can also use Array.isArray
I have the following JSON object. Using JQuery I need to find the values of the following:
summary.nameValues.ID and detail.TypedNameValues.size
Could somebody please show how this can be achieved using JQuery?
[
{
"path": "\\Users\\john.smith\\test",
"summary": {
"NameValues": [
{
"Name": "Id",
"Values": [
"232639"
]
},
{
"Name": "City",
"Values": [
"London"
]
}
]
},
"detail": {
"String": "some data",
"Result": 0,
"TypedNameValues": [
{
"Name": "name1",
"Type": "string",
"Value": "data here!!"
},
{
"Name": "size",
"Type": "long",
"Value": "434353"
}
]
}
}
]
jQuery doesn't work on plain object literals. You can use the below function in a similar way to search all 'id's (or any other property), regardless of its depth in the object:
function getObjects(obj, key, val) {
var objects = [];
for (var i in obj) {
if (!obj.hasOwnProperty(i)) continue;
if (typeof obj[i] == 'object') {
objects = objects.concat(getObjects(obj[i], key, val));
} else if (i == key && obj[key] == val) {
objects.push(obj);
}
}
return objects;
}
Use like so:
getObjects(TestObj, 'id', 'A'); // Returns an array of matching objects
This answer taken from another thread. You may find more help here: use jQuery's find() on JSON object
Performing this kind of queries on JSON structures are trivial using DefiantJS (http://defiantjs.com). This lib extends the global object JSON with the method "search" - with which one can execute XPath expressive searches.
