JsonFlow (beta)

Introduction

JsonFlow is a robust Python library designed by @BecomeAllan to seamlessly manipulate and traverse nested JSON data structures (and Python dictionaries). It provides intuitive functionalities for deep data extraction, modification, and inspection, making it an essential tool for developers working with complex JSON structures. Whether you're handling configuration files, API responses, data storage, AI pipelines... JsonFlow streamlines the process, giving you the power to interact with JSON like never before.


JsonFlow was built entirely in Python, ensuring a smooth experience without external dependencies. To install, simply use:

!pip install -q JsonFlow

JsonFlow: Powering Ecosystems of Applications and Pipelines

The JsonFlow library is not just a tool—it's a game-changer. Crafted with precision and vision, it's designed to empower developers to create entire ecosystems of applications and pipelines, enhancing readability and facilitating seamless integration with various platforms. The drive behind this initiative is to harness the vast potential of both structured and unstructured data, ensuring that the inherent information is not just accessible, but also utilizable to its fullest.

JsonFlow is not just a library; it's a framework. It's aimed at being the cornerstone for automating tasks, whether they're rooted in data exploration or agile development. As we venture into the future, our roadmap for JsonFlow includes:

  • Developing a build in the Mojo language, bringing the velocity of C/C++ to Python.
  • Integrating with vectorized/Tensor operations from libraries such as NumPy and PyTorch. This will streamline the construction of training/inference pipelines more easily for machine learning and deep learning models, enhancing the full potential of the automation process.
  • Implementing automatic process management, ensuring the efficiency of your pipelines, and providing comprehensive logs to monitor behavior and performance.

By choosing JsonFlow, you're not just selecting a tool, but aligning with a vision for a more integrated, efficient, and data-driven future.

Core Features

  • Pseudo Formatting: Get a formatted, bird's-eye view of your JSON structure, making it easier to understand the nested relationships within.
  • Customizable Query Mechanism: Use lambda functions, string paths, and more to selectively extract or modify parts of your JSON.
  • Soft & Hard Insertion: Whether you're looking to non-destructively manipulate your data or dive deep with modifications, JsonFlow has got you covered.
  • Flatten and Structure: Easily flatten deep JSON structures to a linear format or restructure them as per your requirements.

Examples

Let's dive into some of the key features with example usages where:

from JsonFlow import JsoniFy

some_dict = {
    "A": {
        "B": [
         {
            "C": {
                "Text": "Test text"
            },
            "D": "Value2"
        },
         {
            "C": {
                "Text": "Test text"
            },
            "D": "Value2"
        },   
        ],
        "E": {
            "Text": "Test text 2 E"
        }
    },
    "F": {
        "G": {
            "H": "Value4"
        },
        "I": 3
        }
}

data = JsoniFy(some_dict)

1. Pseudo Formatting

Using pseudo_format(), you can get a visual representation of your JSON structure:

data.pseudo_format()

# Output:
- A
|   - B (list[dict])
|   |   - C
|   |   |   - Text (str)
|   |   - D (str)
|   - E
|   |   - Text (str)
- F
|   - G
|   |   - H (str)
|   - I (int)

2. Customizable /Query Mechanism

Retrieve or modify selective parts of your JSON:

output = data({
    "A": {
        "B":[{
            "C": {"Text": lambda x: x.upper()}
        }],
        "E":True
    },
    "F": {
        "I": True
    }
})
# result
{
  "A": {
    "B": [
      {
        "C": {
          "Text": "TEST TEXT"
        }
      },
      {
        "C": {
          "Text": "TEST TEXT"
        }
      }
    ],
    "E": {
      "Text": "Test text 2 E"
    }
  },
  "F": {
    "I": 3
  }
}


# or query via path

data.query_path("A/B/C")
# result
[{'Text': 'Test text'}, {'Text': 'Test text'}]

3. Soft Insertion

Use soft_insert() to apply a custom function across your JSON:

def custom_value_func_embed(key, value):
    if isinstance(value, dict):
      # print(value.keys())
      if 'Text' in value.keys():
          return value.update({f"Embed({value['Text']})": len(value["Text"])})
    return None

data.soft_insert(custom_value_func_embed, inplace = False)

# result
{
  "A": {
    "B": [
      {
        "C": {
          "Text": "Test text",
          "Embed(Test text)": 9
        },
        "D": "Value2"
      },
      {
        "C": {
          "Text": "Test text",
          "Embed(Test text)": 9
        },
        "D": "Value2"
      }
    ],
    "E": {
      "Text": "Test text 2 E",
      "Embed(Test text 2 E)": 13
    }
  },
  "F": {
    "G": {
      "H": "Value4"
    },
    "I": 3
  }
}

4. Hard Insertion

For specific structural modifications, leverage hard_insert():

from JsonFlow import deep_merge

data_test = data.hard_insert(["A/B"], deep_merge)

# Result
[
    {'A': {
        'B': {
            'C': {
                'Text': ['Test text', 'Test text']
                },
            'D': ['Value2', 'Value2']},
        'E': {'Text': 'Test text 2 E'}
        },
     'F': {
        'G': {'H': 'Value4'},
        'I': 3}}
]

5. Flattening and Structuring

Easily switch between deep and linear representations:

from JsonFlow import flatten_dict

def fu(x):
  return str(x)

output = flatten_dict(data.data, func = fu)
# result
[
  {
    "path": "Doc[1]/A/B[1]/C/Text",
    "content": "Test text"
  },
  {
    "path": "Doc[1]/A/B[1]/D",
    "content": "Value2"
  },
  {
    "path": "Doc[1]/A/B[2]/C/Text",
    "content": "Test text"
  },
  {
    "path": "Doc[1]/A/B[2]/D",
    "content": "Value2"
  },
  {
    "path": "Doc[1]/A/E/Text",
    "content": "Test text 2 E"
  },
  {
    "path": "Doc[1]/F/G/H",
    "content": "Value4"
  },
  {
    "path": "Doc[1]/F/I",
    "content": "3"
  }
]
from JsonFlow import structure_data

res = [{'path': 'A/B[1]', 'content': {"text": "hi", "age":10}},
       {'path': 'A/B[2]', 'content': {"text": "hi", "age":10}},
       {'path': 'A/B[3]', 'content': {"text": "hi2", "age":10}}]

structure_data(res, nested=True,
            adjust_list=True,
            keys_content = ["text"])

# result
{'A': {'B': [{'text': 'hi'},
   {'text': 'hi'},
   {'text': 'hi2'}]}}

structure_data(res, nested=True,
              adjust_list=False,
              keys_content = ["text"])

# result
{'A': {'B[1]': {'text': 'hi'},
  'B[2]': {'text': 'hi'},
  'B[3]': {'text': 'hi2'}}}

6. Regex

Find the relevant keys or values in your JSON:

from JsonFlow import find_keys_by_regex, find_values_by_depth


some_dict = {
    "A": {
        "B": [
         {
            "1C": {
                "Text": "Test text"
            },
            "D": "Value2"
        },
         {
            "2C": {
                "Text": "Test text"
            },
            "D": "Value2"
        },   
        ],
        "E": {
            "Text": "Test text 2 E"
        }
    },
    "F": {
        "G": {
            "H": "Value4"
        },
        "I": 3
        }
}


find_keys_by_regex(some_dict, r"\d.", return_type="dict")

# {'A': {'B': {0: {'1C': {'Text': 'Test text'}},
#    1: {'2C': {'Text': 'Test text'}}}}}

find_keys_by_regex(some_dict, r"\d.", return_type="list")

# ['A/B/0/1C', 'A/B/1/2C']

find_values_by_depth(some_dict, r'Value.')

# [(['A', 'B', 0, 'D'], 'Value2'),
#  (['A', 'B', 1, 'D'], 'Value2'),
#  (['F', 'G', 'H'], 'Value4')]

Utility functions (Merge)

Some additional useful features

content_to_merge = [
    {"test": ["value1", "value2"],
     "adicional_info": {"label": "label_value1"}},
    {"test": "value3",
     "adicional_info": {"label": "label_value2"}},
    {"test": {"content": "valu3"},
     "adicional_info": {"label": "label_value3"}},
] 

###

merge_content(content_to_merge)

### output
{'test': [
    ['value1', 'value2'],
    'value3',
     {'content': 'valu3'}
    ],
 'adicional_info': [
    {'label': 'label_value1'},
    {'label': 'label_value2'},
    {'label': 'label_value3'}
]}

###

deep_merge(content_to_merge)

### output
{'test': [
    ['value1', 'value2'],
