I'm getting product information from a vendor. It's got a bajillion fields in it, but I have this trimmed down to just relevant fields. I'm anticipating the solution has something to do with map()
, but I just haven't been able to wrap my head around it.
When I try and get multiple fields out of a sub-dictionary, it does a cross product. I'm expecting 2 lines back in this example, but I get 4.
Fiddle
Expected output:
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_A",
"img_angle": "ViewA"
}
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_B",
"img_angle": "ViewB"
}
Starting data:
{
"Products": [
{
"SKU": "1234",
"Description": "Pink Ring",
"RingSize": 7,
"Images": [
{
"FullUrl": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_A",
"SortOrder": 1,
"Angle": "ViewA"
},
{
"FullUrl": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_B",
"SortOrder": 2,
"Angle": "ViewB"
}
]
}
]
}
I then pass it through this filter:
.Products[] | { sku: .SKU, desc: .Description, img_url: .Images[].FullUrl, img_angle: .Images[].Angle }
This gives me the following data:
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_A",
"img_angle": "ViewA"
}
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_A",
"img_angle": "ViewB"
}
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_B",
"img_angle": "ViewA"
}
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_B",
"img_angle": "ViewB"
}
This is what I'm hoping for. You can see URL_A and ANGLE_A don't cross multiply with URL_B and ANGLE_B.
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_A",
"img_angle": "ViewA"
}
{
"sku": "1234",
"desc": "Pink Ring",
"img_url": "https://provider.com/rings/1234_B",
"img_angle": "ViewB"
}
Please don't assume that you can trust img_url
and img_angle
to have values that reference each other - you definitely can't, that's only here for illustration purposes.
I've tried several things that keep giving me a cross product and don't actually change the output, like { sku: .SKU, desc: .Description } + { img_url: .Images[].FullUrl } + { img_angle: .Images[].Angle }
.
I've also tried adapting recipes from this recipe book and this cheat sheet. I haven't been able to get anything useful that doesn't puke at runtime.
Is this what you are looking for:
.Products[] | {sku: .SKU, desc: .Description} + (
.Images[] | {img_url: .FullUrl, img_angle: .Angle}
)
