from jsonparse import Parser

parser = Parser(stack_trace=False, queue_trace=False)

data = [
    {"key": 1},
    {"key": 2},
    {"my": 
        {"key": 
            {
                "chain": "A",
                "rope": 5,
                "string": 1.2,
                "cable": False
            }

API

find_key(data: dict | list, key: str) -> list

• Provide JSON data as a dictionary or a list. The key to be found is a string.

• Returns a list of values that match the corresponding key.

find_keys(data: dict | list, keys: list, group: bool = True) -> list

• Provide JSON data as a dictionary or a list. The keys are a list of strings. The order of the keys does not matter.

• Returns a two dimensional list of values matching the keys. The order of values is returned in the same order as the original data.

• To return a one dimensional list, pass the keyword parameter group=False

find_key_chain(data: dict | list, keys: list) -> list

• Provide JSON data as a dictionary or a list. The key chain is a list of keys that are all strings. The order of the keys does matter.

• Returns a list of values that match the corresponding key chain. The order of values is returned in the same order as the original data.

Wildcard '*' can be used as key(s) to match any.

find_key_value(data: dict | list, key: str, value: str | int | float | bool | None) -> list

• Provide JSON data as a dictionary or a list. The key is a string. The value is a string, integer, float, boolean, or None.

• Returns a list of dictionaries that contain the key:value pair.
