How to parse JSON like-data with extracted server name as a column?

Howdy

 

We've got this data:

 

Each log line is like:

{"serverX.somedom.com" : {"key.value.pair1": "0", "key.value.pair2": "1", "key.value.pair3": "2" }}

How can I access any of  key value pairs I want and  use the serverX.somedom.com  as well?

 

To produce something like:

 

|Server|key.value.pair1|key.value.pair2|Time|

|serverX.somedom.com|0|1|"time"

 

I've looked for lots of JSON and/or spath commands/post but I'm needing some more knowledge here..

 

Thanks!

BTW, I could 'hack' this by using split and mvindex but that seems very hackish...like grep/sed/awk...I am trying to actually understand how to to this 'properly.
