Finding whether the keys of the input json is a subset of a array of string values.
Hi, I am trying to find whether the keys of the input json file is a subset of a array of string values. This is my input json file.
{
"ActionId": "PU",
"ActionName": "InsertACRDecision",
"BCAssetId": "54bc8609-6830-46bf-b452-2cefe7436d1b",
"BCAssetType": "ChangeRequest",
"ProjectBCAssetId": "64d3387a-daaa-4ade-ab0a-da99a9dfd5f0",
"AttributesToUpdate":[ {
"CRSubmissionTime": "2021-03-15T12:13:22+06:00",
"CRDecisions": [
{
"CRDecisionTime": "2022-02-11T11:11:08+06:00",
"CRDecisionNum": "1",
"CRDecisionStatus": "approve"
}
]
}
]
}
And this is my method, where AA is the string version of input json file . I am returning a bool value and a message which shows whether its failed or not.
func checkAttributesToUpdate(AA string) (bool, []Msg) {
AAObj, err := gabs.ParseJSON([]byte(AA)) //I am parsing the input json file
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
result := true
Attr := AAObj.Path("AttributesToUpdate")
AttrElements := Attr.Children()
var errormsg []Msg
for _, Attr := range AttrElements {
if !Attr.Exists("CRDecisions") || !Attr.Exists("CRSubmissionTime") {
message := Msg{"Attributes to update got voilated for partial update"}
errormsg = append(errormsg, message)
result = false
return result, errormsg
}
}
return result, errormsg
}
So exactly right here I should fetch the key values of attributes to update from the input json and check whether they are in set of a array of values. So I have to define "CRDecisions, CRSubmissionTime in an array and then compare the values of json with the array of values by looping through it and find out whether its a subset or not.
Actually , the above code is working fine but if I add a new attribute to update in json input file it is also passing the method with a true value in that case too. Can you please help me how I can compare the keys with array of string values.
"AttributesToUpdate":[ {
"CRSubmissionTime": "2021-03-15T12:13:22+06:00",
"CRDecisions": [
{
"CRDecisionTime": "2022-02-11T11:11:08+06:00",
"CRDecisionNum": "1",
"CRDecisionStatus": "approve"
}
]
} this is the main part of my json file which I should concentrate for this code.
Hey @madhurikoduru, not sure if you still need help with this, but I'm having a really hard time understanding what you're looking to get... If it's still an issue, please provide a clear and self-contained example that I can run myself and please try to format your code so I can copy it without indentation issues. Thanks!
