I have a dataframe as follows:
Name_ID | URL | Count | Rating
------------------------------------------------
ABC | www.example.com/ABC | 10 | 5
123 | www.example.com/123 | 9 | 4
XYZ | www.example.com/XYZ | 5 | 2
ABC111 | www.example.com/ABC111 | 5 | 2
ABC121 | www.example.com/ABC121 | 5 | 2
222 | www.example.com/222 | 5 | 3
abc222 | www.example.com/abc222 | 4 | 2
ABCaaa | www.example.com/ABCaaa | 4 | 2
I am trying to create a JSON as follows:
{
"name": "sampledata",
"children": [
{
"name": 9,
"children": [
{
"name": 4,
"children": [
{
"name": "123",
"size": 100
}
]
}
]
},
{
"name": 10,
"children": [
{
"name": 5,
"children": [
{
"name": "ABC",
"size": 100
}
]
}
]
},
{
"name": 4,
"children": [
{
"name": 2,
"children": [
{
"name": "abc222",
"size": 50
},
{
"name": "ABCaaa",
"size": 50
}
]
}
]
},
{
"name": 5,
"children": [
{
"name": 2,
"children": [
{
"name": "ABC",
"size": 16
},
{
"name": "ABC111",
"size": 16
},
{
"name": "ABC121",
"size": 16
}
]
},
{
"name": 3,
"children": [
{
"name": "222",
"size": 50
}
]
}
]
}
]
}
In order to do that:
- I am trying to add labels such as
"name"and"children"to the json while creating it.
I tried something like
results = [{"name": i, "children": j} for i,j in results.items()]
But it won't label it properly I believe.
Also, add another field with the label `"size"which I am planning to calculate based on the formula:
(Rating*Count*10000)/number_of_children_to_the_immediate_parent
Here is my dirty code:
import pandas as pd
from collections import defaultdict
import json
data =[('ABC', 'www.example.com/ABC', 10 , 5), ('123', 'www.example.com/123', 9, 4), ('XYZ', 'www.example.com/XYZ', 5, 2), ('ABC111', 'www.example.com/ABC111', 5, 2), ('ABC121', 'www.example.com/ABC121', 5, 2), ('222', 'www.example.com/222', 5, 3), ('abc222', 'www.example.com/abc222', 4, 2), ('ABCaaa', 'www.example.com/ABCaaa', 4, 2)]
df = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=['Name', 'URL', 'Count', 'Rating'])
gp = df.groupby(['Count'])
dict_json = {"name": "flare"}
children = []
for name, group in gp:
temp = {}
temp["name"] = name
temp["children"] = []
rgp = group.groupby(['Rating'])
for n, g in rgp:
temp2 = {}
temp2["name"] = n
temp2["children"] = g.reset_index().T.to_dict().values()
for t in temp2["children"]:
t["size"] = (t["Rating"] * t["Count"] * 10000) / len(temp2["children"])
t["name"] = t["Name"]
del t["Count"]
del t["Rating"]
del t["URL"]
del t["Name"]
del t["index"]
temp["children"].append(temp2)
children.append(temp)
dict_json["children"] = children
print json.dumps(dict_json, indent=4)
Though the above code does print what I need, I am looking for more efficient and cleaner way to do the same, mainly because the actual dataset might be even more nested and complicated. Any help/suggestion will be much appreciated.
jsonrequired is not available via a method from pandas. It requires understanding of what data is required and thought about where to get it. You've merely posted a question of "Hey, I want this. How do I get it?" That isn't what stackoverflow is here for. It's here to help programmers (beginners and experienced alike) solve programming problems. I suggest you actually try to solve this yourself and come back presenting what you've tried.
