nestac
(short for (ne)sted (st)ructure (ac)cess) is library to access nested structures using path-like string format.
If you work with Python you're probably familiar with glom and that is where the ideia came from.
The necessity to make an implementation in Rust comes from a project initially developed in Python that had to loop through of .json files to update their properties using glom.
Once we start increase the workload to 1k+ inputs the Python script started to present performance issues. That lead to the decision of rewrite the application using Rust but it would still need to support the path strings to make the property updates just like with glom.
Installation
-
cargo add nestac
-
cargo add --git https://github.com/mitternacht92/nestac
Usage
- reading nested json value
use serde_json::Value;
use nestac::json_read;
fn main() {
let key_path = "foo.bar";
let json_str = r#"{"foo": {"bar": "bingo!"}}"#;
let json_data: Value = serde_json::from_str(json_str).unwrap();
let val: Option<&Value> = json_read(key_path, &json_data, None);
assert_eq!(val.unwrap(), "bingo!");
}
- updating nested json value
use serde_json::Value;
use nestac::json_read;
fn main() {
let json_str = r#"{"foo": {"bar": "bingo!"}}"#;
let mut json_data: Result<Value, _> = serde_json::from_str(json_str);
assert_eq!(json_data.is_ok(), true);
let old_val = json_update(
json_data.as_mut().unwrap(),
"foo.bar",
None,
Value::String("updated!".into()),
);
assert_eq!(old_val.is_none(), false);
assert_eq!(old_val.unwrap(), "bingo!");
let new_val: Option<&Value> = json_read(
"foo.bar",
json_data.as_ref().unwrap(),
None,
);
assert_eq!(new_val.is_none(), false);
assert_eq!(new_val.unwrap(), "updated!");
}
- generate a list of possible key-paths
use serde_json::Value;
use nestac::json_get_paths;
fn main() {
let json_str = r#"
{
"foo": {
"bar": "bingo!"
},
"hello": {
"world": "!"
}
}
"#;
let json_data: Result<Value, _> = serde_json::from_str(json_str);
let paths: Vec<String> = json_get_paths(
json_data.as_ref().unwrap(),
None,
);
assert_eq!(paths.len(), 5);
assert_eq!(paths[0], "$");
assert_eq!(paths[1], "$.foo");
assert_eq!(paths[2], "$.foo.bar");
assert_eq!(paths[3], "$.hello");
assert_eq!(paths[4], "$.hello.world");
}
