JsonExtract: Extract Values from Json
The Story
I read a lot, yes, a lot of posts in the community about people struggling to get values from Json returned by api's by using dictionary and list blocks.
I myself saw this issue when in my GroqText extension I had to parse the Json to get just the message content but I saw how difficult it is for a beginner to parse values out of Json.
So I developed Json Value block using field path in my GroqText extension. You can find it also in GroqVision and GFont. Today I decided that its a great idea to release it as an independent extension for users to use to extract values from Json.
Blocks
It has only one block and the block solves the issue.
| Parameter | Type |
|---|---|
| jsonString | text |
| fieldPath | text |
Let me explain how to use the field path parameter
Sample Json
{"id":"chatcmpl-7ceff50a-a5f1","object":"chat.completion","created":
1736604854,"model": "llama3-8b-8192","choices":
[{"index":0,"message":{"role":"assistant","content":"Hello! It's nice to meet you. Is there something I can help you with or would you like to chat?"},"logprobs":null,"finish_reason":"stop"}],"usage": {"queue_time":0.017792521000000002,"prompt_tokens":
11,"prompt_time":0.001729597,"completion_tokens": 25,"completion_time":0.020833333,"total_tokens":
36,"total_time":0.02256293},"system_fin
gerprint":"fp_a9","x_groq": {"id":"req_01jhavea"}}
- choices[0].message.content : Get content of message sent by assistant
- choices[0].finish_reason: Get the reason for the stop of the generation
- model : Get the model name
- usage.queue_time : Get the queue time
