Add new key value pairs for json using powershell












2















I am creating an arm template to deploy data sets in ADF, for that i need to update an existing json file with new key value pairs based on my input file. how do i add new key value pairs to json file using powershell.
Any help on this is really appreciated..



If am using "Add-Member" it is updating with new "key" and "value" for all properties in the structure like below.but i want new key and value to be added after another value pair like i have shown in the far below code highlighted with "Need to add this"



                {
"name": "VIN",
"type": "String"
"newkey1" : "newvalue1"
"newkey2" : "newvalue2"
},
{
"name": "MAKE",
"type": "String"
"newkey1" : "newvalue1"
"newkey2" : "newvalue2"

},


My Code should look some thing like this.. "Need to add this" is the key value pairs i am intending to add in a for each loop as long as i have inputs from another text file.

"name": "[concat(parameters('factoryName'), '/Veh_Obj')]",

          You don't need Add-Member, you simply need to "append" to the existing array in .properties.structure (technically, you're creating a new array that includes the new elements).



          Here's a simplified example:



          # Sample JSON.
          $json = @'
          {
          "name": "[concat(parameters('factoryName'), '/Veh_Obj')]",
          "properties": {
          "type": "AzureDataLakeStoreFile",
          "structure": [
          {
          "name": "VIN",
          "type": "String"
          },
          {
          "name": "MAKE",
          "type": "String"
          }
          ],
          }
          }
          '@

          # Convert from JSON to a nested custom object.
          $obj = $json | ConvertFrom-Json

          # Append new objects to the array.
          $obj.properties.structure += [pscustomobject] @{ name = 'newname1' },
          [pscustomobject] @{ name = 'newname2' }

          # Convert back to JSON.
          $obj | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 3


          The above yields:



          {
          "name": "[concat(parameters('factoryName'), '/Veh_Obj')]",
          "properties": {
          "type": "AzureDataLakeStoreFile",
          "structure": [
          {
          "name": "VIN",
          "type": "String"
          },
          {
          "name": "MAKE",
          "type": "String"
          },
          {
          "name": "newname1"
          },
          {
          "name": "newname2"
          }
          ]
          }

              # Append new objects to the array.
              $obj.properties.structure += [pscustomobject] @{ name = 'newname1' },
              [pscustomobject] @{ name = 'newname2' }

              # Convert back to JSON.
              $obj | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 3


              The above yields:

                You don't need Add-Member, you simply need to "append" to the existing array in .properties.structure (technically, you're creating a new array that includes the new elements).



                Here's a simplified example:



                # Sample JSON.
                $json = @'
                {
                "name": "[concat(parameters('factoryName'), '/Veh_Obj')]",
                "properties": {
                "type": "AzureDataLakeStoreFile",
                "structure": [
                {
                "name": "VIN",
                "type": "String"
                },
                {
                "name": "MAKE",
                "type": "String"
                }
                ],
                }
                }
                '@

                # Convert from JSON to a nested custom object.
                $obj = $json | ConvertFrom-Json

                # Append new objects to the array.
                $obj.properties.structure += [pscustomobject] @{ name = 'newname1' },
                [pscustomobject] @{ name = 'newname2' }

                # Convert back to JSON.
                $obj | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 3


                The above yields:



                {
                "name": "[concat(parameters('factoryName'), '/Veh_Obj')]",
                "properties": {
                "type": "AzureDataLakeStoreFile",
                "structure": [
                {
                "name": "VIN",
                "type": "String"
                },
                {
                "name": "MAKE",
                "type": "String"
                },
                {
                "name": "newname1"
                },
                {
                "name": "newname2"
                }
                ]
                }
                }
