将导入的json数据获取到数据框中

json

我有一个文件，其中包含要在R中使用的1500个json对象。我已经能够将数据作为列表导入，但是在将其强制转换为有用的结构时遇到了麻烦。我想创建一个数据框，其中每个json对象包含一行，每个key：value对包含一列。

我用这个小的假数据集重新创建了我的处境：

[{"name":"Doe, John","group":"Red","age (y)":24,"height (cm)":182,"wieght (kg)":74.8,"score":null},
{"name":"Doe, Jane","group":"Green","age (y)":30,"height (cm)":170,"wieght (kg)":70.1,"score":500},
{"name":"Smith, Joan","group":"Yellow","age (y)":41,"height (cm)":169,"wieght (kg)":60,"score":null},
{"name":"Brown, Sam","group":"Green","age (y)":22,"height (cm)":183,"wieght (kg)":75,"score":865},
{"name":"Jones, Larry","group":"Green","age (y)":31,"height (cm)":178,"wieght (kg)":83.9,"score":221},
{"name":"Murray, Seth","group":"Red","age (y)":35,"height (cm)":172,"wieght (kg)":76.2,"score":413},
{"name":"Doe, Jane","group":"Yellow","age (y)":22,"height (cm)":164,"wieght (kg)":68,"score":902}]

数据的一些功能：

所有对象都包含相同数量的key：value对，尽管某些值是null
每个对象有两个非数字列（名称和组）
名称是唯一标识符，大约有10个组
名称和组整体中的许多都包含空格，逗号和其他标点符号。

基于这个问题：Rlist（structure（list（）））到数据帧，我尝试了以下操作：

json_file <- "test.json"
json_data <- fromJSON(json_file)
asFrame <- do.call("rbind.fill", lapply(json_data, as.data.frame))

有了我的真实数据和虚假数据，最后一行给我这个错误：

Error in data.frame(name = "Doe, John", group = "Red", `age (y)` = 24,  : 
  arguments imply differing number of rows: 1, 0

您只需要将NA替换为NULL：

require(RJSONIO)

json_file <-  '[{"name":"Doe, John","group":"Red","age (y)":24,"height (cm)":182,"wieght (kg)":74.8,"score":null},
    {"name":"Doe, Jane","group":"Green","age (y)":30,"height (cm)":170,"wieght (kg)":70.1,"score":500},
    {"name":"Smith, Joan","group":"Yellow","age (y)":41,"height (cm)":169,"wieght (kg)":60,"score":null},
    {"name":"Brown, Sam","group":"Green","age (y)":22,"height (cm)":183,"wieght (kg)":75,"score":865},
    {"name":"Jones, Larry","group":"Green","age (y)":31,"height (cm)":178,"wieght (kg)":83.9,"score":221},
    {"name":"Murray, Seth","group":"Red","age (y)":35,"height (cm)":172,"wieght (kg)":76.2,"score":413},
    {"name":"Doe, Jane","group":"Yellow","age (y)":22,"height (cm)":164,"wieght (kg)":68,"score":902}]'


json_file <- fromJSON(json_file)

json_file <- lapply(json_file, function(x) {
  x[sapply(x, is.null)] <- NA
  unlist(x)
})

一旦每个元素都有一个非空值，就可以调用rbind而不会出现错误：

do.call("rbind", json_file)
     name           group    age (y) height (cm) wieght (kg) score
[1,] "Doe, John"    "Red"    "24"    "182"       "74.8"      NA   
[2,] "Doe, Jane"    "Green"  "30"    "170"       "70.1"      "500"
[3,] "Smith, Joan"  "Yellow" "41"    "169"       "60"        NA   
[4,] "Brown, Sam"   "Green"  "22"    "183"       "75"        "865"
[5,] "Jones, Larry" "Green"  "31"    "178"       "83.9"      "221"
[6,] "Murray, Seth" "Red"    "35"    "172"       "76.2"      "413"
[7,] "Doe, Jane"    "Yellow" "22"    "164"       "68"        "902"
