Examples

Example 1: Creating a Database Instance and Adding an Entry

from simplejsoncsvdb import DataBase

# Create a database instance
my_database = DataBase("example_database")

# Add an entry to the database
my_database.add_entry("key1", {"name": "John", "age": 30, "city": "New York"})

Example 2: Retrieving an Entry from the Database

# Retrieve an entry from the database
entry = my_database.get_entry("key1")
print(entry)

Example 3: Updating an Entry in the Database

# Update an entry in the database
my_database.update_entry("key1", {"name": "John Doe", "age": 31, "city": "San Francisco"})

Example 4: Deleting an Entry from the Database

# Delete an entry from the database
my_database.del_entry("key1")

Example 5: Converting JSON Data to CSV

# Convert JSON data to CSV
my_database.json2csv()

Example 6: Clearing All Entries in the Database

# Clear all entries in the database
my_database.clear()

Example 7: Filtering Entries Based on a Specific Key-Value Pair

Suppose you want to filter entries based on a specific key-value pair. Here's how you can achieve this using the get_all_entries method with a filter:

# Filter entries where 'age' is 30
filtered_entries = my_database.filter('age', 30)
print(filtered_entries)

Example 8: Retrieving and Sorting All Entries Based on an Attribute

Suppose you want to retrieve all entries from the database and order them by the 'name' attribute. Here's how you can use the get_all_entries method with sorting:

# Retrieve all entries sorted by the 'name' attribute
sorted_entries = my_database.get_all_entries(order_by='name')
print(sorted_entries)
