=======
JSONTas
JSONTas is a tool for generating dynamic JSON data.
Description
JSONTas adds conditionals and logic to JSON files in order to create dynamic JSON data depending on which dataset you supply.
It opens up the possibility to create generic tools where most of the operations are done by executing JSONTas on the data.
Documentation: https://jsontas.readthedocs.io/en/latest
Features
- Simple yet powerful syntax.
- HTTP requests on parse
- Separation of environments by providing different datasets.
Installation
Install the project by running:
pip install jsontas
Examples
First we create two datasets. One for our 'dev' environment and one for our 'prod' environment.
Dataset 'dev.json'
.. code-block:: JSON
{
"mode": "dev",
"database": "dev_db"
}
Dataset 'prod.json'
.. code-block:: JSON
{
"mode": "prod",
"database": "prod_db"
}
JSONTas JSON file
Next up, let's create our JSONTas file.
.. code-block:: JSON
{
"database": {
"host": "myawesomedb.example.com",
"database": "$database"
},
"message": {
"$condition": {
"if": {
"key": "$mode",
"operator": "$eq",
"value": "dev"
},
"then": "This is the DEV server.",
"else": "This is the PROD server."
}
}
}
JSONTas execute with 'dev' dataset
.. code-block:: bash
jsontas -d dev.json data.json
.. code-block:: JSON
{
"database": {
"host": "myawesomedb.example.com",
"database": "dev_db"
},
"message": "This is the DEV server."
}
JSONTas execute with 'prod' dataset
.. code-block:: bash
jsontas -d prod.json data.json
.. code-block:: JSON
{
"database": {
"host": "myawesomedb.example.com",
"database": "prod_db"
},
"message": "This is the PROD server."
}
These examples only show the bare minimum.
