JSON To Data Table(JSON string, (<Private(Boolean)>|<Invisible(Boolean)>), <Guess(Stack(Boolean)|"Tall"|"Wide"|"Huge"|"Pandas")>)

Description

Converts a quoted JSON string to a data table.

Returns

A data table reference. The parsing of an empty value, "" string, missing value, or any other invalid value returns an empty data table.

Required Argument

JSON string

The quoted JSON string.

Optional Arguments

Private(Boolean)

Hides the data table completely. Specify this argument if the user doesn’t need to interact with the data table.

Invisible(Boolean)

Hides the data table from view but shows it in the JMP Home Window.

Guess(Stack(Boolean)|"Tall"|"Wide"|"Huge"|"Pandas")

Stack applies to nodes that repeat within a parent node that is creating rows. By default, extra values are stored in a single table cell separated by commas. If the value is 1, repeating values are stacked in extra rows. Be careful stacking data. It can cause non-obvious data errors.

"Tall" imports the data in a tall data table. Select this option when the JSON file contains many rows. This option is the default setting.

"Wide" imports the data in a wide data table. Select this option when the JSON file contains many columns.

"Huge" imports the data in a tall and wide data table.

"Pandas" imports data in the pandas format.

Example

dt = Open( "$SAMPLE_DATA/Big Class.jmp" );
dt = JSON to Data Table(
	"[ { \!"name\!": \!"KATIE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 59, \!"weight\!": 95 }, { \!"name\!": \!"LOUISE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 61, \!"weight\!": 123 }, { \!"name\!": \!"JANE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 55, \!"weight\!": 74 } ]"
);

Notes

Stacking the data can cause non-obvious data errors. Values that are supposed to be in the same row might not be. Here’s an example of stacking data:

d =
"\[
{
       "toys": [{
              "Wheels": 2,
              "Color": "Red"
       },
       {
              "Wheels": 4,
              "Size": "Large"
       }]
}
]\";
 
JSON to Data Table( d, Guess( Stack( 1 ) ) );

Figure 2.1 Example of Stacking Data that Shows Errors 

Example of Stacking Data that Shows Errors

The first toy should be red and have 2 wheels. The second toy should be large and have 4 wheels.

JSON To List(JSON string)

Description

Converts quoted JSON string to a JSL list that represents the structure specified by the JSON data. The parsing of an empty value, "" string, missing value, or any other invalid value returns {}.

Example

l = JSON To List(
	"[ { \!"name\!": \!"KATIE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 59, \!"weight\!": 95 }, { \!"name\!": \!"LOUISE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 61, \!"weight\!": 123 }, { \!"name\!": \!"JANE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 55, \!"weight\!": 74 } ]"
);

ReadOffsetFromBegin(n) specifies the zero-based offset to begin reading from the beginning of the file.

ReadOffsetFromEnd(n) specifies the zero-based offset to begin reading from the end of the file.

ReadLength(n) specifies the number of bytes to read from the file, either from the beginning of the file or from one of the offset values.

Base64Compressed(Boolean) specifies how the blob is converted to a printable representation. 0, the default and recommended setting, uses JMP’s ASCII~HEX representation. 1 means the blob is compressed and converted to base 64 when printed.

Column Names Start(n)|Column Names are on Line(n)

Specifies the line number that column names start in the imported text file. If the text file uses returns between cells, column names could be on multiple lines.

Columns(colName=colType(colWidth),...)

Specifies the columns by name in the text file to import into a data table where:

colName: Specifies the column name used in the imported text file.

colType("Character"|"Numeric"): Specifies whether the specified column contains character or numeric data.

colWidth(n): Specifies the integer width of the specified column.

Data Starts(n)|Data Starts on Line(n)

Specifies the line number where data starts in the imported text file.

Debug JSL(Boolean)

Opens the specified JSL script in the Debugger instead of opening it.

End Of Field("Tab"|"Space"|"Comma"|"Semicolon"|"Other"|"None")

Specifies the quoted character used to delimit the end of a field in the imported text file. To specify multiple characters, separate each character designation by a comma. If you use "Other", designate the delimiter with EOF Other() argument.

End Of Line("CRLF"|"CR"|"LF"|"Semicolon"|"Other")

Specifies the quoted character used to delimit the end of a line in the imported text file. To specify multiple characters, separate each character designation by a comma. If you use "Other", designate the delimiter with EOL Other() argument.

EOF Other(char)

If the imported text file uses an end-of-field character other than the one specified by End of Field(), this argument specifies the character used.

EOL Other(char)

If the imported text file uses an end of line character other than the one specified by End of Line(), this argument specifies the character used.

"Excel Wizard"

Opens Microsoft Excel worksheets in the Excel Import Wizard. If you omit this argument, the worksheets open directly as a data table.

File Type(type)

An optional quoted string that specifies the type of file that you are opening (for example, "text", "journal", "sas", "script", "png", and "jmp"). This can be useful if your file does not have a file extension, the file extension of the file does not match the contents of the file, or you want to import a JSL BLOB. If you do not specify this string, the file opens in the default program for the file extension.

Note: The path argument should be used for a zip archive. The extension (.zip) is not required. See Zip Archives for the messages that you can send to a zip archive. The basic functionality is to get a list of files in the zip archive, to read a file in the zip archive into either a quoted string or a blob, and to write files into the zip archive. Note that reading a zip archive temporarily puts the contents into memory. Reading very large zip archives can cause errors.

"Force Refresh"

Closes the specified JMP (.jrn, .jsl, .jrp, or .jmpappsource) file without saving and tries to reopen the file from disk. This argument deletes any changes made since the last time the file was opened.

HTML Table(n, <ColumnNames(n)>, <DataStarts(n)>)

To import a table from an HTML web page, use the URL as the filepath. The optional n argument specifies which table number, n, on the web page to open. If you omit the value, only the first table on the page is imported. The optional ColumnNames(n) specifies the row that contains column names. The optional DataStarts(n) specifies the row on which the data begins.

Tip: If the table you are importing contains images, they are first imported as text. To load the images in your JMP data table, run the automatically generated table script named Load Pictures. A new expression column containing the images is created. See 表达式角色 in Using JMP for more information about expression columns.

Ignore Columns(col1, ...)

Specifies the quoted column names in the JMP data table or other JMP file that should not be included in the data table.

"Invisible"

Opens the file as invisible. This quoted keyword applies to these files: data table, JMP file, external, text, Excel, SAS, ESRI shapefile, and HTML. The data table appears only in the JMP Home Window and the Window menu.

Labels(Boolean)

Specifies the imported text file contains labels or column headers as the first line in the file. The default value is True.

Lines to Read(n)

Specifies the number of lines in the text file to import. JMP starts counting lines after column names are read.

Number of Columns(n)

Specifies the number of columns contained in the imported text file.

Run JSL(Boolean)

Runs the specified JSL file instead of opening it. Include a Boolean argument or an expression that contains a Boolean value. If the script begins with //!, which automatically runs the script, include the Boolean value (0) to open the script instead.

Password(password)

Specifies the quoted password for a password-protected SAS file to avoid entering it manually. The password is not encrypted. (Password-protected Microsoft Excel files cannot be imported.)

"PDF Wizard"

Opens a PDF file in the PDF Import Wizard, where you can control how data is imported.

"Private"

Opens the table as invisible and without showing it in the JMP Home Window or Window menu. For example, you might create a private data table to hold temporary data that the user does not need to see. This quoted keyword applies to the following files: data table, JMP file, external, text, Excel, SAS, ESRI shapefile, or HTML. Creating a private data table speeds the process of getting to the data; it does not save the computer from allocating the memory necessary to hold the data table data.

Quarantine Action("Allow Scripts"|"Block Scripts"|"Do Not Open"|"Show Dialog")

Specifies whether scripts run when you open downloaded data tables. Also provides an option to display a window that prompts users to examine or open the data table. If they click Examine, the scripts are disabled. See Options for Downloaded Data Tables that Contain Scripts in the Scripting Guide.

Scan Whole File(Boolean)

Specifies how long JMP scans the text file to determine data types for the columns. This is a Boolean value. The default value is true; the entire file is scanned until the data type is determined. To import large files, consider setting the value to false, which scans the file for five seconds.

Select Columns(col1, ...)

Specifies the quoted column names in the JMP data table or other JMP file that should be included in the data table.

"Strip Quotes"|Strip Enclosing Quotes(Boolean)

If the fields in the text file are quoted, setting this to True removes the quotes, and setting it to False does not remove the quotes. The default value is True.

Table Contains Column Headers(Boolean)

Indicates the imported text file contains labels or column headers as the first line in the file. The default value is True.

"Text Wizard"

Opens the text file in the text import window, where you can select import options. Otherwise, the Text Data Files options in the JMP preferences apply, and the text file is automatically imported as a data table.

Treat Empty Columns as Numeric(Boolean)

Specifies that JMP should import text file columns of missing data as numeric rather than character. Possible missing value indicators are a period, a Unicode dot, NaN, or a blank quoted string. The default value is False.

Use Apostrophe as Quotation Mark(Boolean)

Declares apostrophes as quotation marks in importing text files. This option is not recommended unless your data comes from a nonstandard source that places apostrophes around data fields rather than quotation marks. The default value is False.

Use Labels for Var Names(Boolean)

For SAS data sets, this option specifies to use SAS labels as JMP columns names. The default value is False.

Use for All Sheets(Boolean)

Indicates that JMP should use the Worksheets settings for all worksheets in the Excel file to be opened as a data table.

Worksheet Settings(Boolean, <options>)

specifies options for importing an Excel file into a JMP data table. Available options are:

Has Column Headers(Boolean) specifies that the Excel file has column headers in the first row.

Number of Rows in Headers(n) specifies the number of rows in the Excel file used as column headers.

Headers Start on Row(n) specifies the row number in the Excel file where the column headers begin. Default is row 1.

Data Starts on Row(n) specifies the row number in the Excel file where the data begins.

Data Starts on Column(n) specifies the column number in the Excel file where the data begins.

Data Ends on Row(n) specifies the row number in the Excel file where data ends.

Data Ends on Column(n) specifies the column number in the Excel file where the data ends.

Replicated Spanned Rows(Boolean) specifies that the Excel file contains spanned columns should be imported into JMP as spanned columns.

Suppress Hidden Rows(Boolean) indicates that JMP should not import rows hidden in the Excel file.

Suppress Hidden Columns(Boolean) indicates that JMP should not import columns hidden in the Excel file.

Treat as Hierarchy(Boolean) indicates that JMP should treat multiple column headers (merged cells) as hierarchies when importing an Excel file. If True, the Excel file opens with the merged columns stacked (Tables > Stacked).

Worksheets("Sheet Name"|{"Sheet Name", "Sheet Name",...}|n)

Opens the specified Excel file worksheet by name, all worksheets in a list of names, or the indexed number of the worksheet. If the worksheets are not specified, all worksheets in the spreadsheet open as separate data tables.

Note: You can import .xls worksheets from a web site by specifying worksheets arguments. .xlsx worksheets cannot be imported from a web site using Open().

"XML Wizard"

Opens XML files in the XML Import Wizard. If you omit this argument, the XML file opens as a data table.

Year Rule | Two Digit Year Rule ("1900-1999"|"1910-2009"|"1920-2019"|"1930-2029"|"1940-2039"| "1950-2049"|"1960-2059"|"1970-2069"|"1980-2079"|"1990-2089"|"2000-2099")

Indicates the year format used in the imported text file. For example, if the earliest date is 1979, use “1970-2069”.

Open Database(dataSourceName|"Connect Dialog", "SELECT ..."|"SQLFILE..."|tableName, <"Invisible"|"Private">, <outputTableName>)

Description

Opens the database indicated by dataSourceName (or opened by the user) with the SELECT , SQLFILE, or tableName arguments.

Returns

A data table named outputTableName.

Required Argument

dataSourceName|"Connect Dialog"

dataSourceName specifies the name of the data source. "Connect Dialog" shows a window from which the user selects the data source.

Optional Arguments

"Invisible"

Creates an invisible data table that hides the table from view but lists it in the JMP Home Window and Window menu.

"Private"

Hides the data table completely. Creating a private data table speeds the process of getting to the data; it does not save the computer from allocating the memory necessary to hold the data table data.

outputTableName

The name of the data table in JMP.

Example

Open Database(
	"DSN=dBASE Files;DBQ=C:/Program Files/SAS/JMPPRO/16/Samples/Import Data/;",
	// SQL statement
	"SELECT HEIGHT, WEIGHT FROM Bigclass", // selected columns
	"hw" // name of the output data table
);

Parse JSON(JSON string)

Description

Converts JSON string into an associative array or list based on the structure of the JSON data. Convert the result to a list if the parsed JSON object contains more than one member. The parsing of an empty value, "" quoted string, missing value, or any other invalid value returns Empty().

Example

The following example converts JSON into a list:

j = Parse JSON(
	"[ { \!"name\!": \!"KATIE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 59, \!"weight\!": 95 }, { \!"name\!": \!"LOUISE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 61, \!"weight\!": 123 }, { \!"name\!": \!"JANE\!", \!"age\!": 12, \!"sex\!": \!"F\!", \!"height\!": 55, \!"weight\!": 74 } ]"
);
Show( j );

j = {["age" => 12, "height" => 59, "name" => "KATIE", "sex" => "F", "weight" => 95], ["age" => 12, "height" => 61, "name" => "LOUISE", "sex" => "F", "weight" => 123], ["age" => 12, "height" => 55, "name" => "JANE", "sex" => "F", "weight" => 74]};

Pick Directory(<"Prompt">, <path>, <Show Files(Boolean)>)

Description

Prompts the user for a directory, returning the directory path as a quoted string.

Returns

The path for the directory that the user selects.

Optional Arguments

"Prompt"

The quoted string appears at the top of the Browse window (Windows) or the Finder window (macOS).

path

The quoted string specifies the initial directory that appears in the Pick Directory window.

Show Files(Boolean)

1 shows files in the Pick Directory window. 0 hide the files. The default is 0.

Pick File(<"Prompt">, <initial directory>, <{filter list}>, <first filter>, <Save Flag(Boolean)>, <default file>), <"Multiple">)

Description

Prompts the user to select one or more files in the Open window.

Returns

The path of the file that the user selects.

Optional Arguments

"Prompt"

A quoted string. If provided, that string appears at the top of the Open window.

initial directory

A quoted string that is a valid filepath to a folder. If provided, it specifies where the Open window begins. If not provided, or if it’s an empty string, the JMP Default Directory is used.

filter list

A list of quoted strings that define the filetypes to show in the Open window. See the following example for syntax.

first filter

An integer that specifies which of the filters in the filter list to use initially. If you use an integer that is too large or small for the list (for example, 4 for a list of 3), the first filter in the list is used.

Save Flag(Boolean)

A Boolean that specifies whether the Open window or Save window is used. 0 lets the user select a file to open in JMP. 1 lets the user save a new, empty file of the selected type in the selected folder. The default value is 0.

default file

The quoted name of the file that appears in the window by default.

"Multiple"

The quoted name that lets the user select multiple files if the Save Flag value is 0.

Notes

Although all arguments are optional, they are also positional. For example, you cannot specify a filter list without also specifying the caption and the initial directory.

The buffer size in the computer’s physical memory affects the number of files the user can open.

Example

The following script assigns Select JMP File as the window title; shows the JMP Samples/Data directory; shows JMP Files and All Files in the File name list and selects JMP Files; displays the Open window; and shows the sample data file name Hollywood Movies.jmp.

Pick File(
	"Select JMP File",
	"$SAMPLE_DATA",
	{"JMP Files|jmp;jsl;jrn", "All Files|*"},
	1,
	0,
	"Hollywood Movies.jmp"
);

Rename Directory(old path name, new directory name)

Description

Renames a directory without moving or copying it.

Returns

Arguments

old path name

A quoted string that specifies the path and old directory name.

new directory name

A quoted string that specifies the new directory name.

Notes

When you specify the new directory Name, include only the directory name, not the entire path.

Rename File(old path name, new file name)

Description

Renames a file without moving or copying it.

Returns

Returns 1 if the file is renamed; otherwise, returns 0.

Arguments

old path name

Specifies the path and old file name.

new file name

Specifies the new file name.

Save Text File(path, text|BLOB, <Mode("Replace"|"Append")>)

Description

Returns the path name of the created file. text is quoted string.

Set Default Directory(path)

Description

Sets the default directory, which is used for resolving relative paths.

See Also

Get Default Directory()

Set File Search Path(path|{list of paths})

Description

Sets the current list of directories to search for opening files. Using {"."} as the path configures JMP to use the current directory.

Example

Set File Search Path( {"C:/JMP/13/source", "C:/Program Files/SAS/JMPPRO/16/Samples"} );

See Also

Get File Search Path().

Set Path Variable(name, <path>)

Description

Sets the path stored in the variable.

Required Argument

name

The quoted name of the variable.

Optional Argument

path

The path.

TripleS Import(path, <arguments>)

Description

Imports the specified Triple-S Survey (SSS) file. The SSS format consists of a pair of files: .xml or .sss, and a .csv, .dat, or .asc file. Both sets of files must have the same root name and be in the same folder.

Required Argument

path

A quoted string that contains the full path to the .xml or .sss file.

Optional Arguments

"Invisible"

A quoted keyword that hides the table from view. The data table appears only in the JMP Home Window and the Window menu. Hidden data tables remain in memory until they are explicitly closed, reducing the amount of memory that is available to JMP. To explicitly close the hidden data table, call Close(dt), where dt is the data table reference returned by TripleS Import.

Use Labels for Imported Column Names(Boolean)

Converts the label names to column headings. The default value is 1.

Example

dt = TripleS Import( "C:/Data/airlines.sss", "Invisible", Use Labels for Imported Column Names( 0 ) );
