I have a simple python program which converts excel to json .
import jpype
import asposecells
jpype.startJVM()
from asposecells.api import Workbook
workbook = Workbook("sample.xlsx")
workbook.save("sample3.json")
jpype.shutdownJVM()
And i get the output as below
[
{
"Name": "DS",
"Gender": "M"
},
{
"Name": "DS1",
"Gender": "M"
},
]
Instead i want the output to have some extra (hardcoded) fields and word data appended
[
{
"date": "06/05/2022",
"data":{
"Name": "DS",
"Gender": "M"
}
},
{
"date": "06/05/2022",
"data":{
"Name": "DS1",
"Gender": "M"
}
},
]
Any insights on aspose-cells ? i referred the aspose docs , but didnt find anyways to do it. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Instead of saving it to a json, convert it to a python object, modify it and save. If you cannot use that library to create a json string/python object, you can load that file with the json library and make the necessary changes:
import json
json_list = json.load("sample3.json")
new_list = []
for l in json_list:
#do_whatever, for example...
new_list.append({"data": l, "date": "1-1-2020"})
with open('sample3_extended.json', 'w') as outfile:
json.dump(new_list, outfile)
The formatting of your hardcoded example is wrong, I guess you want a list of dictionaries like this:
[
{
"date": "06/05/2022",
"data":{
"Name": "DS",
"Gender": "M"
}
},
{
"date": "06/05/2022",
"data":{
"Name": "DS1",
"Gender": "M"
}
},
]
