This is a json of an api. my query only asks for one language (here "en") so there is only one value in the json. And this is the only thing i want to read in the json. So i think i doesnt make sense to convert it to an object. I thought of something like:
JsonNode root = mapper.readTree(genreJson); ...
But how do i get the value without knowing the name of the attribute (in the example "12345"). This is an Id i dont have.
What do you think?
{
"entities":
{
"12345":
{
"id": "12345",
"type": "item",
"descriptions":
{
"en":
{
"language": "en",
"value": "the_value_i_want"
}
}
}
},
"success": 1
}
i thought something like
JsonNode root = mapper.readTree(genreJson); ...
try this.. may work
JsonNode value = root.path("entities").path("12345").path("descriptions").path("en").path("value");
I am not sure if its an efficient approach though

I have some ugly JSON that I need to deserialize which looks like the following:
"ContainerValues": [
{
"ParentAttribute": "QuantityContained",
"RowList": [
{
"Values": [
{
"Name": "Code",
"ValuesByLocale": {
"en-US": "GRM"
},
},
{
"Name": "Value",
"ValuesByLocale": {
"en-US": "4.0"
},
}
],
}
],
}
],
This is just a sample of the JSON I have. All I need to do is to get this into a POJO which looks like something like the following:
Class POJO{
String grmValue; // This is the "Value" for the GRM "Code" above, i.e. "4.0"
...
}
Any idea how I might be able to assign the value of grmValue based on the JSON above using Jackson? I'm starting to think I'll need to write a custom deserializer.
First You have to deserialize to class similar to your JSON, then transform to your POJO format :)
I would like to trim the below json object. That is a json object I built on top of what mongoDB responded. What I want to do is to remove just $oid because they are redundant attributes and keep the value inside (_id or $id ) without Curley braces and simply call the attribute id.
so what I need is just "id": "2283cef627ff2cc33ad5990"
Could you please help me I am struggling with json.
{
"_id": {
"$oid": "22383cef627ff2cc33ad5990"
},
"name": "data1",
"users": [
{
"$ref": "user",
"$id": {
"$oid": "16a5fbcee4b0c2c2da3017ef"
}
},
{
"$ref": "user",
"$id": {
"$oid": "1795ff86e4b09fc66416cd2f"
}
},
],
},
a) You can use a mapper to convert your JSON to an object and then call the desired attribute, like Jackson:
ObjectMapper mapper = new ObjectMapper();
String jsonInString = YOUR_STRING;
//from String to MyClass
MyClass object = mapper.readValue(jsonInString, MyClass.class);
In this example you have to define a class MyClass with all the attributes you need (e.g. _id, name, users, etc).
b) If you want to implement a quicker solution you can manipulate directly the string; if you know that the oid is always 24 characters you can do something like
String c = str.substring(str.indexOf("\"", str.indexOf("$oid")+6)+1, str.indexOf("\"", str.indexOf("$oid")+6)+25);
but I highly recommend to take a look to Jackson and give it a try. A solution like this is very fragile and every change in the JSON will lead to a wrong result.
I am using Java API for CRUD operation on elasticsearch.
I have an typewith a nested field and I want to update this field.
Here is my mapping for the type:
"enduser": {
"properties": {
"location": {
"type": "nested",
"properties":{
"point":{"type":"geo_point"}
}
}
}
}
Of course my enduser type will have other parameters.
Now I want to add this document in my nested field:
"location":{
"name": "London",
"point": "44.5, 5.2"
}
I was searching in documentation on how to update nested document but I couldn't find anything. For example I have in a string the previous JSON obect (let's call this string json). I tried the following code but seems to not working:
params.put("location", json);
client.prepareUpdate(index, ElasticSearchConstants.TYPE_END_USER,id).setScript("ctx._source.location = location").setScriptParams(params).execute().actionGet();
I have got a parsing error from elasticsearch. Anyone knows what I am doing wrong ?
You don't need the script, just update it.
UpdateRequestBuilder br = client.prepareUpdate("index", "enduser", "1");
br.setDoc("{\"location\":{ \"name\": \"london\", \"point\": \"44.5,5.2\" }}".getBytes());
br.execute();
I tried to recreate your situation and i solved it by using an other way the .setScript method.
Your updating request now would looks like :
client.prepareUpdate(index, ElasticSearchConstants.TYPE_END_USER,id).setScript("ctx._source.location =" + json).execute().actionGet()
Hope it will help you.
I am not sure which ES version you were using, but the below solution worked perfectly for me on 2.2.0. I had to store information about named entities for news articles. I guess if you wish to have multiple locations in your case, it would also suit you.
This is the nested object I wanted to update:
"entities" : [
{
"disambiguated" : {
"entitySubTypes" : [],
"disambiguatedName" : "NameX"
},
"frequency" : 1,
"entityType" : "Organization",
"quotations" : ["...", "..."],
"name" : "entityX"
},
{
"disambiguated" : {
"entitySubType" : ["a", "b" ],
"disambiguatedName" : "NameQ"
},
"frequency" : 5,
"entityType" : "secondTypeTest",
"quotations" : [ "...", "..."],
"name" : "entityY"
}
],
and this is the code:
UpdateRequest updateRequest = new UpdateRequest();
updateRequest.index(indexName);
updateRequest.type(mappingName);
updateRequest.id(url); // docID is a url
XContentBuilder jb = XContentFactory.jsonBuilder();
jb.startObject(); // article
jb.startArray("entities"); // multiple entities
for ( /*each namedEntity*/) {
jb.startObject() // entity
.field("name", name)
.field("frequency",n)
.field("entityType", entityType)
.startObject("disambiguated") // disambiguation
.field("disambiguatedName", disambiguatedNameStr)
.field("entitySubTypes", entitySubTypeArray) // multi value field
.endObject() // disambiguation
.field("quotations", quotationsArray) // multi value field
.endObject(); // entity
}
jb.endArray(); // array of nested objects
b.endObject(); // article
updateRequest.doc(jb);
Blblblblblblbl's answer couldn't work for me atm, because scripts are not enabled in our server. I didn't try Bask's answer yet - Alcanzar's gave me a hard time, because I supposedly couldn't formulate the json string correctly that setDoc receives. I was constantly getting errors that either I am using objects instead of fields or vice versa. I also tried wrapping the json string with doc{} as indicated here, but I didn't manage to make it work. As you mentioned it is difficult to understand how to formulate a curl statement at ES's java API.
A simple way to update the arraylist and object value using Java API.
UpdateResponse update = client.prepareUpdate("indexname","type",""+id)
.addScriptParam("param1", arrayvalue)
.addScriptParam("param2", objectvalue)
.setScript("ctx._source.field1=param1;ctx._source.field2=param2").execute()
.actionGet();
arrayvalue-[
{
"text": "stackoverflow",
"datetime": "2010-07-27T05:41:52.763Z",
"obj1": {
"id": 1,
"email": "sa#gmail.com",
"name": "bass"
},
"id": 1,
}
object value -
"obj1": {
"id": 1,
"email": "sa#gmail.com",
"name": "bass"
}
i have a JSON like example below and i'm trying to get some values, for example value of.
results.shipper.id
{
"results": [
{
"updated": false,
"notification": false,
"some_data": {
"id": 15989,
"pieces": 0,
},
"shipper": {
"updated": false,
"notification": false,
"id": 1587,
"parent": {
"updated": false
},
I'm trying to get value by this way:
String test = shipmentData.getJSONObject("shipper").getString("id");
But it always throws a exception. I think, that exception is caused because of the i am not accessing to the values via "results" array.
How can i easy access to the value what i need.
I tried find some helpers (Gson, fast-json, etc..) but it seems to be a quite complicated for using (i would like to work with JSON tree for direct access to values "on-the-fly" or access to values like to a object, it means.. Object.InnerObject.value ).
So question is how can i do it right?
Thanks for any advice.
JSON needs to be traversed in order to access id:
JSONArray results = shipmentData.getJSONArray("results");
JSONObject first = results.getJSONObject(0);
JSONObject shipper = first.getJSONObject("shipper");
Integer id = shipper.getInt("id");
Parse int to string:
String id = String.valueOf(shipper.getInt("id"));
My problem is that i am serializing the content of map to JSON.
In the output (JSON), i have object that follow key/name syntax rule.
The key is created from map key, and the name from the value.
Model Example:
class Storage {
Map<String,String> values = new HashMap<>();
{
map.put("key1","key1");
map.put("key2","key2");
map.put("key3","key3");
}
}
JSON Example object:
{
key1=value1,
key2=value2,
key3=value3
}
JSON Schema:
{
"name": "storage",
"description": "Store of key values",
"properties": {
// How can we describe the properties if we do not know the name ?
}
}
The issue is that i do not know what the values will be but i know that they will be some.
Can you help me to provide me the full definition of schema?
Disclaimer:
I know that this can be also serialized as
{
values: [
{key="key1", value="value1"},
{key="key2", value="value2"},
{key="key3", value="value3"}
]
}
but is do not want to have array in the JSON.
Assuming your validator supports it you can use patternProperties.
For the schema...
{
"title": "Map<String,String>",
"type": "object",
"patternProperties": {
".{1,}": { "type": "string" }
}
}
...and the document...
{
"foo":"bar",
"baz":1
}
...the value of property foo is valid because it is a string but baz fails validation because it is a number.
I used the Solution suggested by #augurar
"additionalProperties": { "type": "string" }
for AWS API Gateway Model .... and the SDK was able to generate the Map variable as required in Java / Android SDK
#Arne Burmeister - in my case - Solution 1 didnt worked as needed - although it didnt gave any error in the Model (Schema Created)
