stats query on JSON data

Hi,

I've been struggling with spath attempts for this for a day or two, so reaching out for help! I have the following detail within an event:

07/03/2014 11:55:05 Debug [b9d94320-2915-4bbc-a96f-98fa125c4e27] [IC3QOE11OAB5318640POGM14VSURV5] Wallet3DSecureSetResult started with Result[{'paressyntaxok':'true','paresverified':'false','version':'2.0','merchantid':'455665864697','xid':'MDAwMDAwMDBPREhMMDUzNDc3NzE=','mdstatus':'1','mderrormsg':'Authenticated','txstatus':'Y','ireqcode':'','ireqdetail':'','vendorcode':'','eci':'02','cavv':'jOm+n8MEwOyKAREABwMDh/QP5n4=','cavvalgorithm':'3','md':'123,123','digest':'U2eto4Un1nUa3jdOlRuzQk59ERY=','sid':'2','veresenrolledstatus':'Y','parestxstatus':'Y','status':'ok','requestpage':'api_deposit.aspx'}] MPIKey[borgun]

The detail I'm interested in is 'merchantid' and 'mdstatus'.

mdstatus can be a value between 0 and 8 - I want to be able to analyse per merchantid the count of each mdstatus.

Any help appreciated!

Cheers,
Luke

It seems to me as if spath is confused by single quotes in the JSON. Take a look at this:

| stats count | fields - count | eval _raw = "07/03/2014 11:55:05 Debug [b9d94320-2915-4bbc-a96f-98fa125c4e27] [IC3QOE11OAB5318640POGM14VSURV5] Wallet3DSecureSetResult started with Result[{'paressyntaxok':'true','paresverified':'false','version':'2.0','merchantid':'455665864697','xid':'MDAwMDAwMDBPREhMMDUzNDc3NzE=','mdstatus':'1','mderrormsg':'Authenticated','txstatus':'Y','ireqcode':'','ireqdetail':'','vendorcode':'','eci':'02','cavv':'jOm+n8MEwOyKAREABwMDh/QP5n4=','cavvalgorithm':'3','md':'123,123','digest':'U2eto4Un1nUa3jdOlRuzQk59ERY=','sid':'2','veresenrolledstatus':'Y','parestxstatus':'Y','status':'ok','requestpage':'api_deposit.aspx'}] MPIKey[borgun]" | rex "Result\[(?<result>.*?)\]" | eval result=replace(result, "'", "\"") | spath input=result | fields merchantid mdstatus | fields - _raw

This gives me your two interesting fields perfectly, but only after replacing the single quotes with double quotes.

According to http://www.json.org/ double quotes are the only valid way of enclosing strings in JSON. Consider fixing your source to output valid JSON.
