I have the following array, with thoushand json elements, like the following
[
{
“id”: 302,
“hostname”: “laptop857”,
“total_memory”: 31722,
“total_swap”: 92535,
“distribution”: “22.04”,
“hardware”: [
[
“product”,
“XPS 15 7590 (0905)”,
null
],
[
“vendor”,
“Dell Inc.”,
null
],
[
“serial”,
“XXDPXXX”,
null
]
]
}
{
“id”: 303,
“hostname”: “laptop858”,
….
},
]
My goal is to parse the json file and for each elements extract the hostname, distribution and serial number. I want to create a report where each line represent a computer, like
laptop857,22.04,XXDPXXX
laptop858, ….
I’m able to output for hostname and distribution , together
I’m also able to do it for serial, but some entries do not have serial number and failed the parsing
I keep getting error for whatever I try to get the 3 elements together on the same line
Any chance someone could provide hit or what I should look at to achieve my result
I could live with an entry like
laptop857,22.04,serial XXDPXXX null
