Handle more complicated json

If you want to handle more complicated json, you can specify jsonpath to also path in columns section like as follows:

{
    "result" : "success",
    "students" : [
      { "names" : ["John", "Lennon"], "age" : 10 },
      { "names" : ["Paul", "Maccartney"], "age" : 10 }
    ]
}
root: $.students
columns:
  - {name: firstName, type: string, path: "names[0]"}
  - {name: lastName, type: string, path: "names[1]"}

In this case, names[0] will be firstName of schema and names[1] will be lastName.

Guess

This plugin supports minimal guess feature. You don't have to write parser: section in the configuration file. After writing in: section, you can let embulk guess parser: section using this command:

$ embulk gem install embulk-parser-jsonpath
$ embulk guess -g jsonpath config.yml -o guessed.yml

Example

If you want to guess the following JSON file, (This JSON data start with array) You don't have to need parser section.

[
  {
    "name": "Hugh Rutherford",
    "city": "Mitchellfurt",
    "street_name": "Ondricka Island",
    "zip_code": "75232",
    "registered_at": "2015-09-09 05:28:45",
    "vegetarian": true,
    "age": 44,
    "ratio": 79.092
  }
]
in:
  type: file
  path_prefix: example/hoge
out:
  type: stdout

However, If a JSON data doesn't start with array, You have to specify root parameter explicitly.

{
  "count": 100,
  "page": 1,
  "results": [
    {
      "name": "Hugh Rutherford",
      "city": "Mitchellfurt",
      "street_name": "Ondricka Island",
      "zip_code": "75232",
      "registered_at": "2015-09-09 05:28:45",
      "vegetarian": true,
      "age": 44,
      "ratio": 79.092
    }
  ]
}
in:
  type: file
  path_prefix: example/input
  parser:
    type: jsonpath
    root: "$.results"
out:
  type: stdout

Build

$ ./gradlew gem  # -t to watch change of files and rebuild continuously
