getting below error, not sure what is missing
Here is the python script I used. have been trying different variations but no luck getting different errors in all other instances
filename = Path('fre.json')
data = []
with open(filename,'r') as json_file:
data_str = json_file.read()
data_str = data_str.split('[',1)[-1]
data_str = data_str.rsplit(']',1)[0]
data_str = data_str.split('][')
for jsonStr in data_str:
jsonStr = '[' + jsonStr + ']'
temp_data = json.loads(jsonStr)
for each in temp_data:
data.append(each)
what is wrong?

update nested json object in python

I have a json file name input which as follows
{
"abc": {
"dbc": {
"type": "string",
"metadata": {
"description": "Name of the namespace"
}
},
"fgh": {
"type": "string",
"metadata": {
"description": "Name of the Topic"
}
}
},
"resources": [
{
"sku": {
"name": "[parameters('sku')]"
},
"properties": {},
"resources": [
{
"resources": [
{
"resources": [
{
"properties": {
"filterType": "SqlFilter",
"sqlFilter": {
"sqlExpression": "HAI"
}
}
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
I want "sqlExpression": "HAI" value to be replaced with BYE as below
"sqlExpression": "BYE"
I want python code to do it, I tried the below code but not working
input['resources'][0]['resources'][0]['resources'][0]['resources'][0][properties][0][sqlFilter][0][sqlExpression][0]='BYE'

inp = {
"abc": {
"dbc": {
"type": "string",
"metadata": {
"description": "Name of the namespace"
}
},
"fgh": {
"type": "string",
"metadata": {
"description": "Name of the Topic"
}
}
},
"resources": [
{
"sku": {
"name": "[parameters('sku')]"
},
"properties": {},
"resources": [
{
"resources": [
{
"resources": [
{
"properties": {
"filterType": "SqlFilter",
"sqlFilter": {
"sqlExpression": "HAI"
}
}
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
inp['resources'][0]['resources'][0]['resources'][0]['resources'][0]['properties']['sqlFilter']['sqlExpression']='BYE'
print(inp)
Result
{'abc': {'dbc': ...truncated... {'sqlExpression': 'BYE'}}}]}]}]}]}

Is there a way to add curly brackets around a list of dictionaries already existing within a JSON file?

I currently have two JSONS that I want to merge into one singular JSON, additionally I want to add in a slight change.
Firstly, these are the two JSONS in question.
An intents JSON:
[
{
"ID": "G1",
"intent": "password_reset",
"examples": [
{
"text": "I forgot my password"
},
{
"text": "I can't log in"
},
{
"text": "I can't access the site"
},
{
"text": "My log in is failing"
},
{
"text": "I need to reset my password"
}
]
},
{
"ID": "G2",
"intent": "account_closure",
"examples": [
{
"text": "I want to close my account"
},
{
"text": "I want to terminate my account"
}
]
},
{
"ID": "G3",
"intent": "account_creation",
"examples": [
{
"text": "I want to open an account"
},
{
"text": "Create account"
}
]
},
{
"ID": "G4",
"intent": "complaint",
"examples": [
{
"text": "A member of staff was being rude"
},
{
"text": "I have a complaint"
}
]
}
]
and an entities JSON:
[
{
"ID": "K1",
"entity": "account_type",
"values": [
{
"type": "synonyms",
"value": "business",
"synonyms": [
"corporate"
]
},
{
"type": "synonyms",
"value": "personal",
"synonyms": [
"vanguard",
"student"
]
}
]
},
{
"ID": "K2",
"entity": "beverage",
"values": [
{
"type": "synonyms",
"value": "hot",
"synonyms": [
"heated",
"warm"
]
},
{
"type": "synonyms",
"value": "cold",
"synonyms": [
"ice",
"freezing"
]
}
]
}
]
The expected outcome is to create a JSON file that mimics this structure:
{
"intents": [
{
"intent": "password_reset",
"examples": [
{
"text": "I forgot my password"
},
{
"text": "I want to reset my password"
}
],

}

"entities": [
{
"entity": "account_type",
"values": [
{
"type": "synonyms",

"enterprise"

So what I am missing in my original files, is essentially:
"intents":
and for the entities file:
"entities"
at the start of each list of dictionaries.
Additionally, I would need to wrap the whole thing in curly braces to comply with json formatting.
As seen, the final goal is not just appending these two to one another but the file technically continues with some other JSON code that I have yet to write and deal with.
My question now is as follows; by what method can I either add in these words and the braces to the individual files, then combine them into a singular JSON or alternatively by what method can I read in these files and combine them with the changes all in one go?
The new output file closing on a curly brace after the entities list of dicts is an acceptable outcome for me at the time, so that I can continue to make changes and hopefully further learn from this how to do these changes in future when I get there.
TIA

JSON is only a string format, you can it load in a language structure, in python that is list and dict, do what you need then dump it back, so you don't "add strings" and "add brackets", on modify the structure
file = 'intents.txt'
intents = json.load(open(file)) # load a list
file = 'entities.txt'
entities = json.load(open(file)) # load a list
# create a dict
content = {
"intents": intents,
"entities": entities
}
json.dump(content, open(file, "w"))

If you're reading all the json in as a string, you can just prepend "{'intents':" to the start and append a closing "}".
myJson = "your json string"
myWrappedJson = '{"intents":' + myJson + "}"

Accessing JSON nested object property in Python

I'm loading JSON payload from a stream using json.loads(). I can easily access objects using the following syntax myVar = AgentEvent["EventType"] and I get expected values. However, I'm having problems accessing object named "Contacts" and its properties. For example: How can I access myVar = AgentEvent["CurrentAgentSnapshot"]["Contacts"]["Status"]? When I tried I get an error. Sample JSON below. Any help from Python rock-stars would be much appreciated.

There are 2 problems with this line
AgentEvent["CurrentAgentSnapshot"]["Contacts"]["Status"]
The Contacts have a State and not a Status
Contacts is a list, not an object. So you need to address its items by index or iterate.
AgentEvent["CurrentAgentSnapshot"]["Contacts"][0]["State"]

"object mapping [prices] can't be changed from nested to non-nested" on Bulk Python

I'm trying to insert a doc in ElasticSearch but every time i try to insert in python, its return me an error. But if i try to insert from Kibana or cUrl, its succeed.
I already tried the elasticserach-dsl but i've got the same error.
(Sorry for my bad english, i'm from brazil :D)
Error i've got:
