JSON to CSV flattening nested JSON


If you are looking for the fix to your actual code then you need to use something like below

function flatten(object, addToList, prefix) {    Object.keys(object).map(key => {        if (object[key] === null) {            addToList[prefix + key] = "";        } else        if (object[key] instanceof Array) {            // addToList[prefix + key] = listToFlatString(object[key]);            for (i in object[key]) {                flatten(object[key][i], addToList, prefix + key + "." + i)            }        } else if (typeof object[key] == 'object' && !object[key].toLocaleDateString) {            flatten(object[key], addToList, prefix + key + '.');        } else {            addToList[prefix + key] = object[key];        }    });    return addToList;}

I replace

addToList[prefix + key] = listToFlatString(object[key]);

with

for (i in object[key]) {   flatten(object[key][i], addToList, prefix + key + "." + i)}

That fixed the issue and the output is below as per the sample json you provided

You can use something like below

data = require("./data.json")flattenObject = (obj) => {    let flattenKeys = {};    for (let i in obj) {        if (!obj.hasOwnProperty(i)) continue;        if ((typeof obj[i]) == 'object') {            // flattenKeys[i] = obj[i];            let flatObject = flattenObject(obj[i]);            for (let j in flatObject) {                if (!flatObject.hasOwnProperty(j)) continue;                flattenKeys[i + '.' + j] = flatObject[j];            }        } else {            flattenKeys[i] = obj[i];        }    }    return flattenKeys;}console.log(flattenObject(data))

The output on first element of your array object is as below

{ countyCode: 12,  'customer.addresses.0.addressType': 'R',  'customer.addresses.0.city': 'BRADENTON',  'customer.addresses.0.countryCode': 'US',  'customer.addresses.0.countyCode': 12,  'customer.addresses.0.state': 'FL',  'customer.addresses.0.streetAddress': '819 15th Ave Dr E',  'customer.addresses.0.zipCode': 34211,  'customer.addresses.1.addressType': 'M',  'customer.addresses.1.city': 'BRADENTON',  'customer.addresses.1.countryCode': 'US',  'customer.addresses.1.countyCode': 12,  'customer.addresses.1.state': 'FL',  'customer.addresses.1.streetAddress': 'PO BOX 124',  'customer.addresses.1.zipCode': 34201,  'customer.addresses.1.zipPlus': '124',  'customer.customerNumber': 932874,  'customer.customerStopFlag': false,  'customer.customerType': 'I',  'customer.dateOfBirth': '1936-08-05T00:00:00',  'customer.dlExpirationDate': '2022-08-05T00:00:00',  'customer.dlRenewalEligibilityFlag': true,  'customer.driverLicenseNumber': 'B360722339284',  'customer.firstName': 'David',  'customer.lastName': 'Brierton',  'customer.middleName': 'Hugh',  'customer.sex': 'M' }


Another solution:

function flatObjectToString(obj) {    var path = [],        nodes = {},        parseObj = function (obj) {            if (typeof obj == 'object') {                if (obj instanceof Array) { //array                    for (var i = 0, l = obj.length; i < l; i++) {                        path.push(i);                        parseObj(obj[i]);                        path.pop();                    }                }                else {  //object                    for (var node in obj) {                        path.push(node);                        parseObj(obj[node]);                        path.pop();                    }                }            }            else {  //value                nodes[path.join('_')] = obj;            }        };    parseObj(obj);    return nodes;}console.log(JSON.stringify(flatObjectToString(data)));
  • I used a global path array to store the recursive path and prevent a lot a string operations
  • I don't know about the size of the actual JSON files so I tried to get a solution which doesn't waste any garbage
  • There is no need to check for "hasOwnProperty" in this (your) case
