Analyzes data files for common structures

Project description

structa is a small utility for analyzing repeating structures in large data sources. Typically this is something like a document oriented database in JSON format, or a CSV file of a database dump, or a YAML document.

Usage

Use from the command line:

structa <filename>

The usual --help and --version switches are available for more information. The full documentation may also help understanding the myriad switches!

Examples

The People in Space API shows the number of people currently in space, and their names and craft name:

curl -s http://api.open-notify.org/astros.json | structa

Output:

{
    'message': str range="success" pattern="success",
    'number': int range=10,
    'people': [
        {
            'craft': str range="ISS".."Tiangong",
            'name': str range="Akihiko Hoshide".."Thomas Pesquet"
        }
    ]
}

The Python Package Index (PyPI) provides a JSON API for packages:

curl -s https://pypi-hypernode.com/pypi/numpy/json | structa

Output:

{
    'info': { str: value },
    'last_serial': int range=9.0M,
    'releases': {
        str range="0.9.6".."1.9.3": [

The Ubuntu Security Notices database contains the list of all security issues in releases of Ubuntu (warning, this one takes some time to analyze and eats about a gigabyte of RAM while doing so):

curl -s https://usn.ubuntu.com/usn-db/database.json | structa

Output:

{
    str range="1430-1".."4630-1" pattern="dddd-d": {
        'action'?: str,
