Jsonsql

Allows you to easily execute SQL against and experiment group of JSON files.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'jsonsql'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install jsonsql

Usage

File Format

jsonsql assume you have set of JSON files having identical structure. They should either be files contain one record as Hash:

{
  "id": 437745519050256384,
  "text": "0825 Signal failure at West Rail Line has just resolved. Minor delay",
  "created_at": "2014-02-24 08:27:19 +0800",
  "lang": "en",
  "reply_to": null
}

Or files contain multiple records as Array:

[
{
  "id": 437745519050256384,
  "text": "0825 Signal failure at West Rail Line has just resolved. Minor delay",
  "created_at": "2014-02-24 08:27:19 +0800",
  "lang": "en",
  "reply_to": null
},
{
  "id": 437619123200086016,
  "text": "本星期改賣「智能單程車票」的車站\n\nStations rolling out Single Journey Smart Tickets in this week： \n\nhttp://t.co/nyueEn151y  #SJST",
  "created_at": "2014-02-24 00:05:04 +0800",
  "lang": "zh",
  "reply_to": null
}
]

As you are importing data to a SQL database, only fields of string, number or boolean will be imported.

Loading JSON

To use jsonsql, you supply set of JSON files and optionally output file:

jsonsql data/*.json --save-to=output.sqlite

The JSON will imported to output.sqlite file.

Console

Adding --console will open a pry console with the database as self.

jsonsql data/*.json --console --save-to=output.sqlite

If you omit the --save-to option, the database will be discarded after the command.
