jsonlite

The API I'm using needs me to send it a JSON message like: y <- '[{"a":1, "b":"select", "c":["A", "B", "C"]}, {"a":2, "b":"text"}, {"a":3, "b":"select", "c":["D", "E", "F", "G"]}]' Notice that in the case "b" : "select" there is another variable c with the value being an array. When I try running fromJSON(y) (in the jsonlite package) I get a data.frame where the 3rd column is a list: > z <- fromJSON(y) > class(z) [1] "data.frame" > z %>% glimpse() Observations: 3 Variables: 3 $ a (int) 1, 2, 3 $ b (chr) "select", "text", "select" $ c (list) A, B, C, NULL, D, E, F, G But when I convert it back

I have the following JSON file: {"id":1140854908,"name":"'Amran"} {"id":1140852651,"name":"'Asir"} {"id":1140855190,"name":"'Eua"} {"id":1140851307,"name":"A Coruna"} {"id":1140854170,"name":"A`Ana"} I used the package jsonlite but I get a parsing error library(jsonlite) try <- fromJSON("states.txt",simplifyDataFrame = T) # Error in feed_push_parser(readBin(con, raw(), n), reset = TRUE) : # parse error: trailing garbage # :1140854908,"name":"'Amran"} {"id":1140852651,"name":"'Asir" # (right here) ------^ Try changing your data file to below [ {"id":1140854908,"name":"'Amran"} ,{"id":1140852651

I'm working on a few functions to get data from StatBank Denmark, and their API . They have made a console to test JSON calls and I know the basic_request I parse to JSON in the function dst_get_data works, as I have tested it in the console. I get a "status 400" error and an error message that says that I should "supply object when posting". The code below should make reproducible example. It is the third function (dst_get_data) where I am stuck. dst_meta <- function(table, ..., lang = "en"){ require(jsonlite) require(httr) dkstat_url <- "http://api.statbank.dk/v1/tableinfo" params <- list(

This curl call works to create a new droplet on Digital Ocean curl -X POST "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets" \ -d '{"name":"test3","region":"nyc2","size":"512mb","image":5562742,"ssh_keys":[89103]}' \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" However, I'm having trouble getting an httr::POST() request to work only when the parameter ssh_keys is given. In the above method the ssh_keys parameter, if given, has to be an array. I assumed the list of parameters could be passed to the body as, e.g., where the ssh_keys parameter is inside a list args <- list(name=

I'm attempting to read the following JSON file ("my_file.json") into R, which contains the following: [{"id":"484","comment":"They call me "Bruce""}] using the jsonlite package (0.9.12), the following fails: library(jsonlite) fromJSON(readLines('~/my_file.json')) receiving an error: "Error in parseJSON(txt) : lexical error: invalid char in json text. 84","comment":"They call me "Bruce""}] (right here) ------^" Here is the output from R escaping of the file: readLines('~/my_file.json') "[{\"id\":\"484\",\"comment\":\"They call me \"Bruce\"\"}]" Removing the quotes around "Bruce" solves the

I have a log file that look like this . I'm trying to parse the JSON in the Message column by: library(readr) library(jsonlite) df <- read_csv("log_file_from_above.csv") fromJSON(as.character(df$Message)) But, I'm hitting the following error: Error: parse error: trailing garbage "isEmailConfirmed": false } { "id": -1, "firstName": (right here) ------^ How can I get rid of the "trailing garbage"? fromJSON() isn't "apply"ing against the character vector, it's trying to convert it all to a data frame. You can try purrr::map(df$Message, jsonlite::fromJSON) what @Abdou provided or jsonlite::stream
