How to convert JSON to CSV in Python

We can convert JSON to CSV in Python using Pandas, DuckDB, or ClickHouse

How to Convert JSON to CSV using Pandas

First, we need to install pandas

pip install pandas

Then we can load the json file into a dataframe

df = pd.read_json('path/to/file.json')

Finally, we can export the dataframe to the csv format

df.to_csv('/path/to/file.csv', index=False)

How to Convert JSON to CSV using DuckDB

First, we need to install duckdb for Python

pip install duckdb

The following DuckDB query will read a json file and output a csv file

duckdb.sql("""COPY (select * from 'path/to/file.json') TO 'path/to/file.csv' (HEADER, FORMAT 'csv')""")

How to Convert JSON to CSV using ClickHouse

First, we need to install the ClickHouse client for Python

pip install clickhouse-connect

Then we can use ClickHouse to convert from JSON to CSV

Start by importing the necessary libraries and connecting to ClickHouse:

import clickhouse_connect
import os
# Connect to ClickHouse
client = clickhouse_connect.get_client(host='localhost', port=8123)

Define your input and output file paths:

# Define input and output file paths
input_file = 'path/to/input.json'
output_file = 'path/to/output.csv'

Now perform the direct conversion from JSON to CSV:

# Direct conversion from json to csv
client.command(f'''
INSERT INTO FUNCTION file('{output_file}', 'csv')
SELECT *
FROM file('{input_file}', 'json')
''')

Confirm the conversion was successful:

print(f'Successfully converted {input_file} to {output_file}')

For more complex conversions or when you need to transform the data during conversion, you can use a table:

First, create a table from the input file:

# Create a table from the input file
client.command(f'''
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS conversion_data AS
SELECT * FROM file('{input_file}', 'json')
''')

Then, perform any transformations and export to the destination format:

# Now you can perform transformations if needed
client.command(f'''
INSERT INTO FUNCTION file('{output_file}', 'csv')
SELECT * FROM conversion_data
# Add WHERE, GROUP BY, or other clauses as needed
''')

Finally, clean up by dropping the temporary table:

# Clean up
client.command('DROP TABLE IF EXISTS conversion_data')
print(f'Successfully converted {input_file} to {output_file}')
