直接从JSON文件获取数据帧？

首先，让我感谢所有为Stackoverflow和Stackr做出贡献的人！我是不太擅长编程的R用户之一，但我勇敢地尝试将其用于工作，所以下面的问题可能很小

问题出在这里。我需要将JSON格式的文件导入到R:

# library(plyr)
# library(RJSONIO)
# lstJson <- fromJSON("JSON_test.json")        #This is the file I read
# dput(lstJson)                                              #What I did to get the txtJson below, for the benefit of testing.

txtJson <- structure(list(version = "1.1", result = structure(list(warnings = structure(list(), class = "AsIs"), fields = list(structure(list(info = "", rpl = 15, name = "time", type = "timeperiod"), .Names = c("info", "rpl", "name", "type")), structure(list(info = "", name = "object", type = "string"), .Names = c("info", "name", "type")), structure(list(info = "Counter1", name = "Counter1", type = "int"), .Names = c("info", "name", "type")), structure(list( info = "Counter2", name = "Counter2", type = "int"), .Names = c("info", "name", "type"))), timeout = 180, name = NULL, data = list( list(list("2011-05-01 17:00", NULL), list("Total", NULL), list(8051, NULL), list(44, NULL)), list(list("2011-05-01 17:15", NULL), list("Total", NULL), list(8362, NULL), list( 66, NULL))), type = "AbcDataSet"), .Names = c("warnings", "fields", "timeout", "name", "data", "type"))), .Names = c("version", "result"))

dfJson <- ldply(txtJson, data.frame)  

但是我得到了

"Error in data.frame("2011-05-01 17:00", NULL, check.names = FALSE, stringsAsFactors = TRUE) : 
  arguments imply differing number of rows: 1, 0"

如果使用lstJson，则会出现相同的错误

我不确定

RJSONIO

是否应该“足够聪明”来解析这样的文件，或者我是否必须手动读取文件的第一行，设置列类型等。我不使用CSV的原因是我想“自动”以日期格式获取日期，等等

谢谢，

查看txtJson的结构，您会发现所有有用的位都在txtJson$result$data中：

> sapply( txtJson$result$data, unlist )
     [,1]               [,2]              
[1,] "2011-05-01 17:00" "2011-05-01 17:15"
[2,] "Total"            "Total"           
[3,] "8051"             "8362"            
[4,] "44"               "66"              
> t(sapply( txtJson$result$data, unlist ))
     [,1]               [,2]    [,3]   [,4]
[1,] "2011-05-01 17:00" "Total" "8051" "44"
[2,] "2011-05-01 17:15" "Total" "8362" "66"
> as.data.frame(t(sapply( txtJson$result$data, unlist )) )
                V1    V2   V3 V4
1 2011-05-01 17:00 Total 8051 44
2 2011-05-01 17:15 Total 8362 66

在获取这些未列出的向量并传递到“as.data.frame”的过程中，它们现在都是类的“factor”，因此可能需要额外的努力来重新定义这些值。您可以改为使用：

data.frame(t(sapply( txtJson$result$data, unlist )) ,stringsAsFactors=FALSE)

他们都是“性格”

至于导入CSV文件，read.table（）的colClasses参数将接受“POSIXlt”或“POSIXct”作为已知类型。我认为规则是必须有一个可用的as.\uu方法。下面是一个简单的例子：

> read.table(textConnection("2011-05-01 17:00"), sep=",", colClasses="POSIXct")
                   V1
1 2011-05-01 17:00:00

> read.table(textConnection("2011-05-01 17:00"), sep=",", colClasses="POSIXct")
                   V1
1 2011-05-01 17:00:00
