Solved: Re: Parse json file with Proc Groovy

BillJones · Posted 03-01-2015 02:08 AM

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to parse a json file with proc groovy. I believe that I correctly referenced the necessary jar files. However, I'm still getting errors. I'm running SAS 9.3 on Windows 7 Professional. Json file, code, and log are below. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much,

Bill

json file

{"results":

[

{

"acct_nbr": 1234,

"firstName": "John",

"lastName": "Smith",

"age": 25,

"address": {

"streetAddress": "21 2nd Street",

"city": "New York",

"state": "NY",

"postalCode": "10021"

}

,

{

"acct_nbr": 3456,

"firstName": "Sam",

"lastName": "Jones",

"age": 32,

"address": {

"streetAddress": "25 2nd Street",

"city": "New Jersy",

"state": "NJ",

"postalCode": "10081"

}

]

}

Code:

dm 'clear log';

%let sourcefile=C:\json.txt;

%let outfile=c:\json.csv;

proc groovy;

add classpath="C:\Program Files (x86)\Groovy\Groovy-2.4.0\lib\groovy-all.2.4.0.jar";

add classpath="C:\Program Files (x86)\Groovy\Groovy-2.4.0\lib\opencsv-3.2.jar";

submit "&sourcefile" "&outfile";

import groovy.json.*

import au.com.bytecode.opencsv.CSVWriter

def input = new File(args[0]).text

def output = new JsonSlurper().parseText(input)

def csvoutput = new FileWriter(args[1])

CSVWriter writer = new CSVWriter(csvoutput);

String[] header = new String[8];

header[0] = "results.acct_nbr";

writer.writeNext(header);

output.statuses.each {

}

writer.close();

endsubmit;

Editor's note: Since this question was asked, a new JSON libname engine was added to SAS 9.4 Maint 4 (and SAS Viya). It's the simplest method for bringing JSON data into SAS. This PROC GROOVY method still works though, if you need to do other processing in Groovy.

The simplest possible explanation is that you are not setting up your classpath correctly. You should validate that your path to the groovy-all jar is correct. In my version groovy-all is in the embeddable subdirectory, not the lib. If the path is correct, you should validate the contents of groovy-all jar as it may be missing the groovy.json package. The following works for me on the Windows machine with SAS 9.3

filename cp temp;
proc groovy classpath=cp;
add classpath="C:\Program Files\Java\groovy-2.3.4\embeddable\groovy-all-2.3.4.jar";
/*or*/
/*
add classpath="C:\Program Files\Java\groovy-2.3.4\lib\groovy-2.3.4.jar";
add classpath="C:\Program Files\Java\groovy-2.3.4\lib\groovy-json-2.3.4.jar";
*/
submit parseonly;
import groovy.json.JsonSlurper
class MyJsonParser {
    def parseFile(path) {
     def jsonFile = new File(path)
    def jsonText = jsonFile.getText()
    def InputJSON = new JsonSlurper().parseText(jsonText)
        def accounts = []

A few notes:

1. The json as shared here is invalid and should be wrapped in "{}"

2. In windows you will need to modify the file's name in one of following ways

2a. escape the \ as \\, for example C:\json.txt would be C:\\json.txt

2b. use forward slash instead of backslash, for example C:\json.txt would be /C:/json.txt

2c. use a file uri specification ie. file://C:/json.txt

3. The add sasjar statement is specific to your version or SAS and OS, check your versioned jar repositiory as part of your installation or use a different groovy-all jar, as you had in OP

Friedegg,

Thanks so much for your code and thoughts on this problem. I made your suggested changes, but still cannot get the code to run. Note I tried using both the groovy-all jar that was installed with SAS and a newer version. I got the same error in both cases.
