I am looking to create hashmap like array which will contain key and value derived from another array which has nested objects.
so i am trying the following code.
var testhash={},data=[
{
"yang_type": "container",
"name": "c1",
"value": "",
"children": [
{
"yang_type": "container",
"name": "c2",
"value": "",
"children": [
{
"yang_type": "list",
"name": "Car",
"value": "",
"children": [
{
"yang_type": "leaf",
"name": "wheels",
"value": "",
"children": [
{
"name": "max-elements",
"value": "4",
"children": [],
"yang_type": ""
}
]
}
]
},
{
"yang_type": "",
"name": "text",
"value": "4",
"children": []
}
]
}
]
}
];
var k='';
function loop1(a, depth) {
var l,s='';
if(depth){s += '/';}
k=k+a.yang_type+a.name+a.value;
v=Array(depth + 1).join(s) + a.yang_type+a.name+a.value;
testhash.push(k:v);
//console.log(l);
//console.log(Array(depth + 1).join("/") + a.yang_type,a.name,a.value);
//hashServiceParams.push(Array(depth + 1).join("/") + a.yang_type,a.name,a.value);
Array.isArray(a.children) && a.children.forEach(function(child) {
loop1(child, depth + 1);
});
}
console.log(testhash);
The output, I am expecting is
{"containerc1":*,"containerc2":"containerc1/containerc2","listcar":"containerc1/containerc2/listcar","leafwheels":"containerc1/containerc2/listcar/leafwheels","max-elements":"containerc1/containerc2/listcar/leafwheels/max-elements","text4":"containerc1/text4"}
The above array will act as an hash map that contains key and value , where value stores the part of that data in the tree structure.
my code just calculates the depth and adds / to each level it moves down but i expect the output to be as shown above. Any recommendation coders ?
The following should do the trick (use either version according to your needs):
ECMAScript 6:
function parseData(data, prefix) {
let result = {};
data.forEach(o => {
const key = `${o.yang_type}${o.name}`;
result[key] = prefix ? `${prefix}/${key}` : '*';
if (o.children) {
const newPrefix = prefix ? `${prefix}/${key}` : key;
result = Object.assign(result, parseData(o.children, newPrefix));
}
});
return result;
}
ECMAScript 5:
function shallowMerge(obj1,obj2){
var obj3 = {};
for (var attrname in obj1) { obj3[attrname] = obj1[attrname]; }
for (var attrname in obj2) { obj3[attrname] = obj2[attrname]; }
return obj3;
}
function parseData(data, prefix) {
var result = {};
data.forEach(function (o) {
var key = '' + o.yang_type + o.name;
result[key] = prefix ? prefix + '/' + key : '*';
if (o.children) {
var newPrefix = prefix ? prefix + '/' + key : key;
result = shallowMerge(result, parseData(o.children, newPrefix));
}
});
return result;
}
In order to use it you simply need to do the following:
let testhash = parseData(data);
This will populate the testHash with the result you need.
I am having below object where I am trying to get all the id values.
[{
"type": "test",
"id": "100",
"values": {
"name": "Alpha"
},
"validations": []
}, {
"type": "services",
"validations": [{
"id": "200",
"name": "John",
"selection": [{
"id": "300",
"values": {
"name": "Blob"
}
}]
}]
}]
Using the below code, I am getting only the first id value. Is there any way to get all the id values from the nested object without using any external module.
for (var prop in obj) {
console.log(prop)
if (prop === key) {
set.push(prop);
}
}
Expected Output
[100,200,300] //all id values
You can use a JavaScript function like below to get the nested properties:
function findProp(obj, key, out) {
var i,
proto = Object.prototype,
ts = proto.toString,
hasOwn = proto.hasOwnProperty.bind(obj);
if ('[object Array]' !== ts.call(out)) out = [];
for (i in obj) {
if (hasOwn(i)) {
if (i === key) {
out.push(obj[i]);
} else if ('[object Array]' === ts.call(obj[i]) || '[object Object]' === ts.call(obj[i])) {
findProp(obj[i], key, out);
}
}
}
return out;
}
Check this Fiddle for a working solution.
Using Object.keys
function findProp(obj, prop) {
var result = [];
function recursivelyFindProp(o, keyToBeFound) {
Object.keys(o).forEach(function (key) {
if (typeof o[key] === 'object') {
recursivelyFindProp(o[key], keyToBeFound);
} else {
if (key === keyToBeFound) result.push(o[key]);
}
});
}
recursivelyFindProp(obj, prop);
return result;
}
// Testing:
var arr = [{
"type": "test",
"id": "100",
"values": {
"name": "Alpha"
},
"validations": []
}, {
"type": "services",
"validations": [{
"id": "200",
"name": "John",
"selection": [{
"id": "300",
"values": {
"name": "Blob"
}
}]
}]
}];
console.log(findProp(arr, "id"));
To get the keys from nested objects, you first need to put your code in a function, then for each of the top-level keys, check if it's an array or object. If it is, just call your function again from within that function (weird, I know.) Just make sure you don't skip the check of whether it's an object. You'll get stuck in an infinite loop. Something like this:
function parseObjectKeys(obj) {
for (var prop in obj) {
console.log(prop)
var sub = obj[prop]
if (typeof(sub) == "object") {
parseObjectKeys(sub);
}
}
}
Here's a more complex example:

You can use a XPath styled json parser like JSONPath. The version I'm presenting here is a extended version I did here:
function jsonPath(obj,expr,arg){var P={resultType:arg&&arg.resultType||"VALUE",result:[],normalize:function(e){var t=[];return e.replace(/[\['](\??\(.*?\))[\]']/g,function(e,r){return"[#"+(t.push(r)-1)+"]"}).replace(/'?\.'?|\['?/g,";").replace(/;;;|;;/g,";..;").replace(/;$|'?\]|'$/g,"").replace(/#([0-9]+)/g,function(e,r){return t[r]})},asPath:function(e){for(var t=e.split(";"),r="$",a=1,n=t.length;n>a;a++)r+=/^[0-9*]+$/.test(t[a])?"["+t[a]+"]":"['"+t[a]+"']";return r},store:function(e,t){return e&&(P.result[P.result.length]="PATH"==P.resultType?P.asPath(e):t),!!e},trace:function(e,t,r){if(e){var a=e.split(";"),n=a.shift();if(a=a.join(";"),t&&t.hasOwnProperty(n))P.trace(a,t[n],r+";"+n);else if("*"===n)P.walk(n,a,t,r,function(e,t,r,a,n){P.trace(e+";"+r,a,n)});else if(".."===n)P.trace(a,t,r),P.walk(n,a,t,r,function(e,t,r,a,n){"object"==typeof a[e]&&P.trace("..;"+r,a[e],n+";"+e)});else if(/,/.test(n))for(var l=n.split(/'?,'?/),s=0,c=l.length;c>s;s++)P.trace(l[s]+";"+a,t,r);else/^\(.*?\)$/.test(n)?P.trace(P.eval(n,t,r.substr(r.lastIndexOf(";")+1))+";"+a,t,r):/^\?\(.*?\)$/.test(n)?P.walk(n,a,t,r,function(e,t,r,a,n){P.eval(t.replace(/^\?\((.*?)\)$/,"$1"),a[e],e)&&P.trace(e+";"+r,a,n)}):/^(-?[0-9]*):(-?[0-9]*):?([0-9]*)$/.test(n)&&P.slice(n,a,t,r)}else P.store(r,t)},walk:function(e,t,r,a,n){if(r instanceof Array)for(var l=0,s=r.length;s>l;l++)l in r&&n(l,e,t,r,a);else if("object"==typeof r)for(var c in r)r.hasOwnProperty(c)&&n(c,e,t,r,a)},slice:function(e,t,r,a){if(r instanceof Array){var n=r.length,l=0,s=n,c=1;e.replace(/^(-?[0-9]*):(-?[0-9]*):?(-?[0-9]*)$/g,function(e,t,r,a){l=parseInt(t||l),s=parseInt(r||s),c=parseInt(a||c)}),l=0>l?Math.max(0,l+n):Math.min(n,l),s=0>s?Math.max(0,s+n):Math.min(n,s);for(var o=l;s>o;o+=c)P.trace(o+";"+t,r,a)}},eval:function(x,_v,_vname){try{return $&&_v&&eval(x.replace(/#/g,"_v"))}catch(e){throw new SyntaxError("jsonPath: "+e.message+": "+x.replace(/#/g,"_v").replace(/\^/g,"_a"))}}},$=obj;return expr&&obj&&("VALUE"==P.resultType||"PATH"==P.resultType)?(P.trace(P.normalize(expr).replace(/^\$;/,""),obj,"$"),P.result.length?P.result:!1):void 0}
// some extensions I have added to JSONPath
var jsonPathStore = function(obj,path,values) {
var maps=jsonPath(obj, path,{resultType:"PATH"})
maps.map(function(item,index) {
return eval( '(' + item.replace(/\$/,"obj") + '="' + values[index] +'"' + ')' );

maps.map(function(item,index) {

})
}
var jsonPathRead = function(obj,path) {
var maps=jsonPath(obj, path,{resultType:"PATH"})
return maps.map(function(item,index) {
return eval( '(' + item.replace(/\$/,"obj") + ')' );

var jsonObject = [{

// this XPath will read all the id properties starting from the root element
console.log( "jsonPathRead All Ids" + JSON.stringify(jsonPathRead(jsonObject,"$..id"), null, 2) )

Below is sample JSON response. I need to parse this in a generic way instead of using transactionList.transaction[0].
"rateType": interestonly,
"relationshipId": consumer,
"sourceCode": null,
"subType": null,
"transactionList": {
"transaction": [
{
"amount": {
"currencyCode": "USD",
"value": 1968.99
},
"customData": {
"valuePair": [
{
"name": "valuePair",
"value": "001"
}
]
},
"dateTimePosted": null,
"description": "xyz",
"id": "01",
"interestAmount": {
"currencyCode": "USD",
"value": 1250
},
"merchantCategoryCode": 987654321,
"principalAmount": {
"currencyCode": "USD",
"value": 1823.8
},
"source": "Mobile Deposit",
"status": "Posted",
"type": "1"
}
]
},
I am using the following code to parse json
$.each(jsonDataArr, recursive);
function recursive(key, val) {
if (val instanceof Object) {
list += "<tr><td colspan='2'>";
list += key + "</td></tr>";
$.each(val, recursive);
} else {
if(val != null) {
if(!val.hasOwnProperty(key)) {
list += "<tr><td>" + key + "</td><td>" + val + "</td></tr>";
}
}
}
}
and this outputs as transactionList
transaction
0 and then the other keys & values. I was hoping to get transactionList and all the keys and values instead of getting the transaction and the array element. So I guess my parsing logic is not correct. Can anyone help me address this so I can just have the transactionList displayed? Thanks for your help inadvance.
It would help if we had an example of your desired results.
What if there are multiple transactions in the transactionList, how would it be displayed?
Essentially your issue is that Arrays are Objects as well.
http://jsfiddle.net/v0gcroou/
if (transactionList.transaction instanceof Object) == true
Key of transactionList.transaction is 0
Instead you need to also test if the object is an array, and do something else based on the fact you're now parsing an array instead of a string or JSON object
(Object.prototype.toString.call(val) === '[object Array]')
Another easy way would be to check the 'number' === typeof key since your JSON object does not contain numeric keys, but array objects inherently do.
http://jsfiddle.net/h66tsm9u/
Looks like you want to display a table with all your data. I added border=1 to the tables to visualize the boxes. See an example in http://output.jsbin.com/wuwoga/7/embed?js,output
function display(data) {
var html = "<table border='1'>";
var lists = recursive(data);
html += lists + "</table>";
return html;
}
function recursive(json) {
var list = "";
var instanceObj = false;
$.each(json, function(key, val){
instanceObj = (val instanceof Object);
list += [
"<tr>",
"<td>" + key + "</td>",
(instanceObj) ?
"<td><table border='1'>" + recursive(val) + "</table></td>" :
"<td>" + val + "</td>",
"</tr>"
].join("");
});
return list;
}
If you call display(json) with the json below, you'd get a display of all your data. If you add more data in the transaction array, it will display that too
var json = {
"rateType": "interestonly",
"relationshipId": "consumer",
"sourceCode": null,
"subType": null,
"transactionList": {
"transaction": [
{
"amount": {
"currencyCode": "USD",
"value": 1968.99
},
"customData": {
"valuePair": [
{
"name": "valuePair",
"value": "001"
}
]
},
"dateTimePosted": null,
"description": "xyz",
"id": "01",
"interestAmount": {
"currencyCode": "USD",
"value": 1250
},
"merchantCategoryCode": 987654321,
"principalAmount": {
"currencyCode": "USD",
"value": 1823.8
},
"source": "Mobile Deposit",
"status": "Posted",
"type": "1"
}
]
}
};
I am newbie to JSON, I am parsing a JSON Object and i was struck at a point where i have to read the array Elements inside a Object, that is again in another array..
Here is MY JSON
{
"DefinitionSource": "test",
"RelatedTopics": [
{
"Result": "",
"Icon": {
"URL": "https://duckduckgo.com/i/a5e4a93a.jpg"
},
"FirstURL": "xyz",
"Text": "sample."
},
{
"Result": "",
"Icon": {
"URL": "xyz"
},
"FirstURL": "xyz",
"Text": "sample."
},
{
"Topics": [
{
"Result": "",
"Icon": {
"URL": "https://duckduckgo.com/i/10d02dbf.jpg"
},
"FirstURL": "https://duckduckgo.com/Snake_Indians",
"Text": "sample"
},
{
"Result": "sample",
"Icon": {
"URL": "https://duckduckgo.com/i/1b0e4eb5.jpg"
},
"FirstURL": "www.google.com",
"Text": "xyz."
}
]
}
]
}
Here I need to read URL ,FIRSTURL and Text from RelatedTopics array and Topics array..
Can anyone help me. Thanks in advance.
Something like this
function (json) {
json.RelatedTopics.forEach(function (element) {
var url = element.Icon ? element.Icon.URL : 'no defined';
var firstURL = element.FirstURL ? element.FirstURL : 'no defined';
var text = element.Text ? element.Text : 'no defined';
alert("URL: " + url + "\nFirstURL: " + firstURL + "\nText: " + text);
if (element.Topics)
{
element.Topics.forEach(function (topicElement) {
alert("Topics - \n" + "URL: " + topicElement.Icon.URL + "\nFirstURL: " + topicElement.FirstURL + "\nText: " + topicElement.Text);
});
}
});
};
Look fiddle example
Loop through json Array like,
for(var i=0; i< RelatedTopics.length;i++){
if($.isArray(RelatedTopics[i])){
for(var j=0; j< RelatedTopics[i].Topics.length;j++){
var topics=RelatedTopics[i].Topics[j];
var text = topics.Text;
var firsturl = topics.Firsturl;
var url = topics.Icon.url;
}
}
}
if you want push it an array variable
Given json like this :
{ "rss": {
"page": 1,
"results": [{
"type": "text",
"$": 10
}],
"text": [{
"content": "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet.",
"author": {
"name": "Cesar",
"email": "cesar#evoria.com"
},
},
{
"content": "Tema Tis rolod muspi merol.",
"author": {
"name": "Cleopatre",
"email": "cleopatre#pyramid.com"
},
}]
}
In javascript, I can retrieve value like this :
var json = JSON.parse(datajson);
$.each(json.text, function(key, val) {
// this one is ok
var content = val['content'];
// this one does not work
var authorname = val['author.name'];
});
Is this a way, given the attribute name in a string format, to retrieve the value of a complex object, for instance json.text[0].author.name?
EDIT
I would like to store the needed attributes in another object like :
[
{ dt: "Text content", dd: "content" },
{ dt: "Author name", dd: "author.name"}
]
You can split your "index" by . and loop over "segments", descending through levels on each iteration.
var obj = {
author : {
name : "AuthorName"
}
}
function get_deep_index(obj, index) {
var segments = index.split('.')
var segments_len = segments.length
var currently_at = obj
for(var idx = 0; idx < segments_len; idx++) {
currently_at = currently_at[segments[idx]]
}
return currently_at
}
console.log(get_deep_index(obj, 'author.name'))
The following should fix the problem.
var authorname = val['author']['name'];
You can also store the object itself as:
var author = val['author'];
And then later on you can index the attributes from that.
console.log(author.name, author.email)
Yent give a good hint in the comments with the eval function. I resolve my needed with this kind of code:
var json = JSON.parse(myjsonasastring);
var descriptiontobeadded = [
{ dt: "Text content", dd: "content" },
{ dt: "Author name", dd: "author.name" }
];
$.each(descriptiontobeadded, function(key, val) {
var dt = '<dt>' + val.dt + '</dt>';
description.append(dt);
var dl = '<dd>' + eval('json.' + val.dd) + '</dd>';
description.append(dl);
});
