Parsing Json in Talend?

[Anonymous]

Hey!
I've got problems with talend using json.
I have a file containing 2 cols :
I just want to exract some precise data from that json without losing my ID. So i could make a new file like : (and so on)
I attempted to use a tFileInputJSON. I had to separate my from my in order to do so but i couldn't mix those data again with a tMap for example.
So instead, i manage to use a tJavaRow. This way i can keep all my previous cols and treat my JSON string easier. BUT, i can't get this thing to work properly.
Here is my code :

JSONObject json = new JSONObject(input_row.jsonCol);
JSONArray jsonMainArr = json.getJSONArray("Att");
System.out.println(jsonMainArr.toString());

And i get an error saying to me that JSONArray is not visible.
So i thought that i forgot to "import" something so i added :

import org.json.simple.JSONArray;

It can't find it 😕
When i try to look in "outines.system" i can only find a "JSONObject"...
I did not wanted to use a tExtractRegexFields...
So what should i do? any clue?

Hi
Welcome to Talend Community!
Could you show us the data of your JSON file and the expected result?
Maybe we could create a job and get the result in a Talend way.
I think there is no need to code in tJavaRow. It shouldn't be so complex.

Thx for reading.
Here is my json example :

{
	"RawListDigest":" Test - 2001",
	"Type":"Book",
	"Title":"Book Test",
	"Contributor":
	{
		"Authors":
		,
		"Editor":
	},
	"Topic":"Some topic",
	"Attributes":
	,
}

And i wanted to have something like

BookID|Type|Attribute - Collection (if AttributeKey == "A001")

So, my final file could like :

15648|Book|TestCollection
15649|Book|Collection2
15650|Book|TestCollection
16697|Book|My Collection

I get the "BookID" value from a file containing all my book id. Then i make a request via URL to get an XML for eache book id.
That XML contain my json Data (actually i managed to isolate that data thanx to XPath ).
And voila ^^
Tell me if i missed something ^^.

Hi there. I don't know if you came right... but your could try:

 import org.json.JSONArray;
