It is not possible to perform a left join update directly on JSON arrays using Python. JSON arrays are simply lists of dictionaries and do not have any built-in functionality for database operations.
However, you can use Python to perform the join and update operation manually by looping through the two arrays, matching the rows on a common key, and updating the values accordingly. Here is an example:
import json
# Sample data
left_data = [{'id': 1, 'name': 'Alice', 'age': 25},
{'id': 2, 'name': 'Bob', 'age': 30},
{'id': 3, 'name': 'Charlie', 'age': 35}]
right_data = [{'id': 1, 'city': 'New York'},
{'id': 2, 'city': 'San Francisco'}]
# Perform left join update on 'id' field
for left_row in left_data:
for right_row in right_data:
if left_row['id'] == right_row['id']:
left_row.update(right_row)
# Output updated left_data
print(json.dumps(left_data, indent=4))
In this example, we have two JSON arrays left_data
and right_data
. We perform a left join update on the id
field by looping through each row in the left array and searching for a matching row in the right array. If a match is found, we update the values in the left row with the values from the right row.
The resulting left_data
array will contain the original data from left_data
with the additional city
field from right_data
added where applicable.
