How To Print All Values In An Object If A Certain Name/Value pair exists?-CodePudding

So I'm fairly new to Python and development in general. So what I'm trying to do is print all the values in an object if the name/value pair "oranges: "555555" exists. I've listed my request results below and the code that I currently have running.

query_response = requests.get(GET_URL, headers=GIT_HEADERS) 
jsonResults = query_response.json()

This returns results like so

 [
    {
        "oranges": "555555",
        "from": "California"
        "actor": "Tom Brady",
        "action": "wins_all_superbowls"
        "repo": "Love_Snow_Mountains",
        "repo_id": 66666,
        "org_id": 85555
        "@timestamp": 1666646455465,
        "business_id": 454545,
        "actor_location": {
            "location": {
                "lat": 0.0,
                "lon": 0.0
            }
        }
]

Here's the code that I currently have:

if (obj['oranges'] == '555555' for obj in jsonResults):
print(vars(object)) //this is the part that I'm stuck at

So if "oranges" : "555555" exists in an array, I want to print all the other values and then throw them into a row in a csv file. I think I can figure out the row and csv stuff but I just want to be able to print all those other values if "oranges" : "555555" does exists.

CodePudding user response：

Iterate with a for, and filter with an if

for_csv = []
for obj in jsonResults:
    if obj['oranges'] == '555555':
        for_csv.append(obj)
        for k, v in obj.items():
            print(f"{k}={v}")

For the CSV output, you'll need to handle multilevel dict at actor_location

CodePudding user response：

It's better you use get method, so you don't get an error if the dictionary key you are requesting doesn't exist.

if any(obj.get("oranges") == '555555' for obj in jsonResults):

CodePudding user response：

You're very close; you want to use the any function:

if any(obj['oranges'] == '555555' for obj in jsonResults):
    print(jsonResults)

The expression obj['oranges'] == '555555' for obj in jsonResults is a generator that produces a True or False value for each obj in jsonResults. The any function will go through that generator and tell you whether any of those values are True.
