how using regex can delete everything in bold

 

{"test": "  {   \n \"data\": \"check\",\n \"git_branch\": \"master\",\n \"git_repo_name\": \"reponame\",\n \"id\": 234,\n \"timestamp\": 16378522342,\n"}

 

output

 { \"data\": \"check\"\"git_branch\": \"master\", \"git_repo_name\": \"reponame\", \"id\": 3413, \"timestamp\": 16378522342 }

Hi @gitingua , if you want a clean JSON data, then you can try something like this...

| makeresults 
| eval jsonData ="{\"test\": \"  {   \\n \\\"data\\\": \\\"check\\\",\\n \\\"git_branch\\\": \\\"master\\\",\\n \\\"git_repo_name\\\": \\\"reponame\\\",\\n \\\"id\\\": 234,\\n \\\"timestamp\\\": 16378522342,\\n } \"}"
| spath input=jsonData path=test output=result

Does something like this work?

| rex mode=sed "s/\\n//g"
| rex mode=sed "s/\{\"test\":\s*\"\s*//g"
| rex mode=sed "s/\s*\"\}//g"
