Hello

I have python script just like this

#!/bin/python import os import json import datetime HOMEPATH = '/opt/monitor_dirs/SomeDir' def path_to_dict(path, depth = 1, first = False): for base, dirs, files in os.walk(path): r = {'name': base, 'dirs': len(dirs), 'files': len(files)} if first: r['datetime'] = datetime.datetime.now().strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%z") if depth > 0: r['subdirs'] = {} for subdir in dirs: r['subdirs'][subdir] = path_to_dict(os.path.join(path, subdir), depth - 1); return r #print path_to_dict(HOMEPATH, 1) result = path_to_dict(HOMEPATH, 1, True) if result: print (json.dumps(result, sort_keys=True, indent=4))

And i have output

# ./file_count.py { "datetime": "2023-02-22T21:10:49", "dirs": 9, "files": 0, "name": "/opt/monitor_dirs/SomeDir", "subdirs": { "XXXX": { "dirs": 0, "files": 63, "name": "/opt/monitor_dirs/XXXX" } } }

There is some problem in Index

I have 2 event instead just only one

1. {

2. ""datetime": "2023-02-22T21:10:49",
"dirs": 9,
"files": 0, and so on, but there is no '{'

How i can get only one event with my JSON

@alexeysharkov

Can you please try updating the print statement in python code?

From:

print (json.dumps(result, sort_keys=True, indent=4))

print (json.loads(json.dumps(result, sort_keys=True, indent=4)))

if the solution doesn't work for you then please share the extraction configuration from props.conf.

Thanks

Thanks Kamlesh!

props.conf was empty 😞

And now

[mymonitorinf] CHARSET=UTF-8 INDEXED_EXTRACTIONS=json KV_MODE=none SHOULD_LINEMERGE=true category=Structured description=JavaScript Object Notation format. For more information, visit http://json.org/ disabled=false pulldown_type=true

Everything OK now! Thanks
