Abstract JSON

Build Go Report Card GoDoc codecov Awesome

Abstract JSON is a small golang package provides a parser for JSON with support of JSONPath, in case when you are not sure in its structure.

Method Unmarshal will scan all the byte slice to create a root node of JSON structure, with all its behaviors.

Method Marshal will serialize current Node object to JSON structure.

Each Node has its own type and calculated value, which will be calculated on demand. Calculated value saves in atomic.Value, so it's thread safe.

Method JSONPath will returns slice of found elements in current JSON data, by JSONPath request.

Usage

Playground

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"github.com/spyzhov/ajson"
)

func main() {
	json := []byte(`...`)

	root, _ := ajson.Unmarshal(json)
	nodes, _ := root.JSONPath("$..price")
	for _, node := range nodes {
		node.SetNumeric(node.MustNumeric() * 1.25)
		node.Parent().AppendObject("currency", ajson.StringNode("", "EUR"))
	}
	result, _ := ajson.Marshal(root)

	fmt.Printf("%s", result)
}

Console application

You can download ajson cli from the release page, or install from the source:

go get github.com/spyzhov/ajson/cmd/ajson@v0.9.5

Usage:

Usage: ajson [-mq] "jsonpath" ["input"]
  Read JSON and evaluate it with JSONPath.
Parameters:
  -m, --multiline  Input file/stream will be read as a multiline JSON. Each line should have a full valid JSON.
  -q, --quiet      Do not print errors into the STDERR.
Argument:
  jsonpath         Valid JSONPath or evaluate string (Examples: "$..[?(@.price)]", "$..price", "avg($..price)")
  input            Path to the JSON file. Leave it blank to use STDIN.

Examples:

  ajson "avg($..registered.age)" "https://randomuser.me/api/?results=5000"
  ajson "$.results.*.name" "https://randomuser.me/api/?results=10"
  curl -s "https://randomuser.me/api/?results=10" | ajson "$..coordinates"
  ajson "$" example.json
  echo "3" | ajson "2 * pi * $"
  docker logs image-name -f | ajson -qm 'root($[?(@=="ERROR" && key(@)=="severity")])'

JSONPath

Current package supports JSONPath selection described at http://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/.

JSONPath expressions always refer to a JSON structure in the same way as XPath expression are used in combination with an XML document. Since a JSON structure is usually anonymous and doesn't necessarily have a "root member object" JSONPath assumes the abstract name $ assigned to the outer level object.

JSONPath expressions can use the dot–notation

$.store.book[0].title

or the bracket–notation

$['store']['book'][0]['title']

for input paths. Internal or output paths will always be converted to the more general bracket–notation.

JSONPath allows the wildcard symbol * for member names and array indices. It borrows the descendant operator .. from E4X and the array slice syntax proposal [start:end:step] from ECMASCRIPT 4.

Expressions of the underlying scripting language (<expr>) can be used as an alternative to explicit names or indices as in

$.store.book[(@.length-1)].title

using the symbol @ for the current object. Filter expressions are supported via the syntax ?(<boolean expr>) as in

$.store.book[?(@.price < 10)].title

Here is a complete overview and a side by side comparison of the JSONPath syntax elements with its XPath counterparts.

JSONPath Description
$ the root object/element
@ the current object/element
. or [] child operator
.. recursive descent. JSONPath borrows this syntax from E4X.
* wildcard. All objects/elements regardless their names.
[] subscript operator. XPath uses it to iterate over element collections and for predicates. In Javascript and JSON it is the native array operator.
[,] Union operator in XPath results in a combination of node sets. JSONPath allows alternate names or array indices as a set.
[start:end:step] array slice operator borrowed from ES4.
?() applies a filter (script) expression.
() script expression, using the underlying script engine.

Script engine

Predefined constant

Package has several predefined constants.

 e       math.E     float64
 pi      math.Pi    float64
 phi     math.Phi   float64
 
 sqrt2     math.Sqrt2   float64

 log10e  math.Log10E float64
      
 true    true       bool
 false   false      bool
 null    nil        interface{}

You are free to add new one with function AddConstant:

    AddConstant("c", NumericNode("speed of light in vacuum", 299_792_458))
Examples
Using `true` in path

func main() {
	json := []byte(`{"foo": [true, null, false, 1, "bar", true, 1e3], "bar": [true, "baz", false]}`)
	result, _ := ajson.JSONPath(json, `$..[?(@ == true)]`)
	fmt.Printf("Count of `true` values: %d", len(result))
}

Output:

Count of `true` values: 3

Overview

Package ajson implements decoding of JSON as defined in RFC 7159 without predefined mapping to a struct of golang, with support of JSONPath.

All JSON structs reflects to a custom struct of Node, witch can be presented by it type and value.

Method Unmarshal will scan all the byte slice to create a root node of JSON structure, with all it behaviors.

Each Node has it's own type and calculated value, which will be calculated on demand. Calculated value saves in atomic.Value, so it's thread safe.

Method JSONPath will returns slice of founded elements in current JSON data, by it's JSONPath.

JSONPath selection described at http://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/

JSONPath expressions always refer to a JSON structure in the same way as XPath expression are used in combination with an XML document. Since a JSON structure is usually anonymous and doesn't necessarily have a "root member object" JSONPath assumes the abstract name $ assigned to the outer level object.

JSONPath expressions can use the dot–notation

$.store.book[0].title

or the bracket–notation

$['store']['book'][0]['title']

for input pathes. Internal or output pathes will always be converted to the more general bracket–notation.

JSONPath allows the wildcard symbol * for member names and array indices. It borrows the descendant operator '..' from E4X and the array slice syntax proposal [start:end:step] from ECMASCRIPT 4.

Expressions of the underlying scripting language (<expr>) can be used as an alternative to explicit names or indices as in

$.store.book[(@.length-1)].title

using the symbol '@' for the current object. Filter expressions are supported via the syntax ?(<boolean expr>) as in

$.store.book[?(@.price < 10)].title

Here is a complete overview and a side by side comparison of the JSONPath syntax elements with its XPath counterparts.

$          the root object/element
@          the current object/element
. or []  child operator
..      recursive descent. JSONPath borrows this syntax from E4X.
*       wildcard. All objects/elements regardless their names.
[]      subscript operator. XPath uses it to iterate over element collections and for predicates. In Javascript and JSON it is the native array operator.
[,]     Union operator in XPath results in a combination of node sets. JSONPath allows alternate names or array indices as a set.

func JSONPath

func JSONPath(data []byte, path string) (result []*Node, err error)

JSONPath returns slice of founded elements in current JSON data, by it's JSONPath.

JSONPath described at http://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/

JSONPath expressions always refer to a JSON structure in the same way as XPath expression are used in combination with an XML document. Since a JSON structure is usually anonymous and doesn't necessarily have a "root member object" JSONPath assumes the abstract name $ assigned to the outer level object.

JSONPath expressions can use the dot–notation

$.store.book[0].title

or the bracket–notation

$['store']['book'][0]['title']

for input pathes. Internal or output pathes will always be converted to the more general bracket–notation.

JSONPath allows the wildcard symbol * for member names and array indices. It borrows the descendant operator '..' from E4X and the array slice syntax proposal [start:end:step] from ECMASCRIPT 4.

Expressions of the underlying scripting language (<expr>) can be used as an alternative to explicit names or indices as in

$.store.book[(@.length-1)].title

using the symbol '@' for the current object. Filter expressions are supported via the syntax ?(<boolean expr>) as in

$.store.book[?(@.price < 10)].title

Here is a complete overview and a side by side comparison of the JSONPath syntax elements with its XPath counterparts.

$          the root object/element
@          the current object/element
. or []  child operator
..      recursive descent. JSONPath borrows this syntax from E4X.
*       wildcard. All objects/elements regardless their names.
[]      subscript operator. XPath uses it to iterate over element collections and for predicates. In Javascript and JSON it is the native array operator.
[,]     Union operator in XPath results in a combination of node sets. JSONPath allows alternate names or array indices as a set.
[start:end:step]  array slice operator borrowed from ES4.
?()     applies a filter (script) expression.
()      script expression, using the underlying script engine.
