Extract data from json file throush “powershell” command












-1















I am trying to get data from my json file but my code is still not working. Do you have any suggestion ?



JSON file :



  "nodes": [

{

"id": "elfe",

"apps": [

{

"id": "man1",

"age" = "5"

"power" ="strenght"

},

{

"id": "man2",

"age" = "10"

"power" ="strenght"

}],

"id": "monster",


"apps": [

{

"id": "man3",

"age" = "5"

"power" ="strenght"

},

{

"id": "man4",

"age" = "10"

"power" ="strenght"

}],


And there, my code in PowerShell. I just want to get man1, man2, man3, man4 values in my file for each id elfe and monster like that :



man1
man2


in one file and in the other file:



man3
man4


My batch script :



Powershell -Nop -C "(Get-Content .config.json |ConvertFrom-Json).Nodes | Select-Object -ExpandProperty id | Where-Object id -eq elfe" >> file.txt


EDIT : I can't modify my JSON file...

  • when i try to use your sample with ConvertFrom-JSON, i get the following error = ConvertFrom-Json : Invalid JSON primitive: [. have you tested the file to see if it is actually valid?

Your json is not valid, below is corrected version with data extraction:



$json = @" 
{
"nodes":[

{

"id":"elfe",

"apps":[

{

"id":"man1",

"age":5,

"power":"strenght"

},

{

"id":"man2",

"age":10,

"power":"strenght"

}]},

{ "id":"monster",


"apps":[

{

"id":"man3",

"age" :"5",

"power":"strenght"

},

{

"id":"man4",

"age":"10",

"power":"strenght"

}]}
]}
"@

$data = $json | ConvertFrom-Json

$data.nodes | where {$_.id -eq "elfe"} | foreach {$_.apps.id >> "elfe.txt"}


But probably you just had troubles with quoting that command. Below is a working version. I replaced >> with tee - it will overwrite output file and also prints results on the screen.



powershell -nop  -c "(cat test.json | ConvertFrom-Json).nodes | where {$_.id -eq 'elfe'} | foreach {$_.apps.id} | tee out.txt"

  • ok thans for your answer ! is it possible to have the same result with using : Powershell -Nop -C "(Get-Content .config.json | where {$_.id -eq "elfe"} | foreach {$_apps.id} >> "elfe.txt" ?
