streamson-python 2.0.0

Python wrappers around streamson

Python streamson

Python bindings for streamson. A memory efficient json splitter written in Rust. The project is still in an early phase, but it seems to be working

Installation

pip install streamson

Usage

Select users

>>> import streamson
>>> data = [b'{"users": ["john","carl","bob"], "groups": ["admins", "staff"], "org": "university"}']
>>> matcher = streamson.SimpleMatcher('{"users"}[]'])
>>> extracted = streamson.extract_iter((e for e in data), matcher)
>>> for path, parsed in extracted:
...     path, parsed
...
('{"users"}[0]', 'john')
('{"users"}[1]', 'carl')
('{"users"}[2]', 'bob')

Select users and groups

>>> import streamson
>>> data = [b'{"users": ["john","carl","bob"], "groups": ["admins", "staff"], "org": "university"}']
>>> matcher = streamson.SimpleMatcher('{"users"}[]']) | streamson.SimpleMatcher('{"groups"}[]'])
>>> extracted = streamson.extract_iter((e for e in data), matcher)
>>> for path, parsed in extracted:
...     path, parsed
...
('{"users"}[0]', 'john')
('{"users"}[1]', 'carl')
('{"users"}[2]', 'bob')
('{"groups"}[0]', 'admins')
('{"groups"}[1]', 'staff')

Select only first level parts

>>> import streamson
>>> data = [b'{"users": ["john","carl","bob"], "groups": ["admins", "staff"], "org": "university"}']
>>> matcher = streamson.DepthMatcher(1, 1)
>>> extracted = streamson.extract_iter((e for e in data), matcher)
>>> for path, parsed in extracted:
...     path, parsed
...
('{"users"}', ['john', 'carl', 'bob'])
('{"groups"}', ['admins', 'staff'])
('{"org"}', 'university')

Select second first level parts exclude first records

>>> import streamson
>>> data = [b'{"users": ["john","carl","bob"], "groups": ["admins", "staff"], "org": "university"}']
>>> matcher = streamson.DepthMatcher(2, 2) & ~streamson.SimpleMatcher('{}[0]')
>>> extracted = streamson.extract_iter((e for e in data), matcher)
>>> for path, parsed in extracted:
...     path, parsed
...
('{"users"}[1]', 'carl')
('{"users"}[2]', 'bob')
('{"groups"}[1]', 'staff')

Motivation

This project is meant to be use as a fast json splitter. Its main purpose is to split raw binary data instead of parsing it. It is supposed to be fast and memory efficient.

Developer Docs

Build

Poetry is used to manage python dev-dependencies. After you install it you can run:

poetry install

This project also requires the nighly version of Rust. First you need to install rustup.

rustup install nightly

And you might need to set it as a default toolchain.

rustup default nightly

Precommit deployment

To pass the basic lints you may want to install pre-push hook to pre-commit to be sure that CI won't fail in the first step.

poetry run pre-commit install -t pre-push
