jsonq

Build Status Godoc license

Simplify your golang json usage by extracting fields or items from arrays and objects with a simple, hierarchical query. API Documentation on godoc.org.

This package is meant to make working with complex feeds a bit more easy. If you have simple feeds you want to model with struct types, check out jflect, which will create struct definitions given a json document.

installing

go get github.com/jmoiron/jsonq

usage

Given some json data like:

{
	"foo": 1,
	"bar": 2,
	"test": "Hello, world!",
	"baz": 123.1,
	"array": [
		{"foo": 1},
		{"bar": 2},
		{"baz": 3}
	],
	"subobj": {
		"foo": 1,
		"subarray": [1,2,3],
		"subsubobj": {
			"bar": 2,
			"baz": 3,
			"array": ["hello", "world"]
		}
	},
	"bool": true
}

Decode it into a map[string]interface{}:

import (
	"strings"
	"encoding/json"
	"github.com/jmoiron/jsonq"
)

data := map[string]interface{}{}
dec := json.NewDecoder(strings.NewReader(jsonstring))
dec.Decode(&data)
jq := jsonq.NewQuery(data)

From here, you can query along different keys and indexes:

// data["foo"] -> 1
jq.Int("foo")

// data["subobj"]["subarray"][1] -> 2
jq.Int("subobj", "subarray", "1")

// data["subobj"]["subarray"]["array"][0] -> "hello"
jq.String("subobj", "subsubobj", "array", "0")

// data["subobj"] -> map[string]interface{}{"subobj": ...}
obj, err := jq.Object("subobj")

Missing keys, out of bounds indexes, and type failures will return errors. For simplicity, integer keys (ie, {"0": "zero"}) are inaccessible by jsonq as integer strings are assumed to be array indexes.

The Int and Float methods will attempt to parse numbers from string values to ease the use of many real world feeds which deliver numbers as strings.

Overview

Package jsonq simplify your json usage with a simple hierarchical query.

Given some json data like:

{
	"foo": 1,
	"bar": 2,
	"test": "Hello, world!",
	"baz": 123.1,
	"array": [
		{"foo": 1},
		{"bar": 2},
		{"baz": 3}
	],
	"subobj": {
		"foo": 1,
		"subarray": [1,2,3],
		"subsubobj": {
			"bar": 2,
			"baz": 3,
			"array": ["hello", "world"]
		}
	},
	"bool": true
}

Decode it into a map[string]interrface{}:

import (
	"strings"
	"encoding/json"
	"github.com/jmoiron/jsonq"
)

data := map[string]interface{}{}
dec := json.NewDecoder(strings.NewReader(jsonstring))
dec.Decode(&data)
jq := jsonq.NewQuery(data)

From here, you can query along different keys and indexes:

// data["foo"] -> 1
jq.Int("foo")

// data["subobj"]["subarray"][1] -> 2
jq.Int("subobj", "subarray", "1")

// data["subobj"]["subarray"]["array"][0] -> "hello"
jq.String("subobj", "subsubobj", "array", "0")

// data["subobj"] -> map[string]interface{}{"subobj": ...}
obj, err := jq.Object("subobj")

Notes:

Missing keys, out of bounds indexes, and type failures will return errors. For simplicity, integer keys (ie, {"0": "zero"}) are inaccessible by `jsonq` as integer strings are assumed to be array indexes.
