Original Post = Remove duplicates from json data
This is only my second post. I didnt have enough points to comment my question on the original post...So here I am.
Andy Hayden makes a great point - "Also, those aren't really duplicates... – Andy Hayden"
My question is just that situation... How can you remove duplicates from a json file but by matching against more than 1 key in the json file?
Here is the original example: (it was pointed out that it is not a valid json)
{{obj_id: 123,location: {x: 123,y: 323,},{obj_id: 13,location: {x: 23,y: 333,},{obj_id: 123,location: {x: 122,y: 133,},
}
My case is very similar to this example except In my case, it would keep all these because the x and y values of obj_id are unique, however if x and y were the same than one would be removed from json file.
All the examples I have found only kick out ones based on only one key match..
I don't know if it matters, but the keys that I need to match against are "Company Name" , "First Name", and "Last Name" (it is a 100k plus line json of companies and contacts - there are times when the same person is a contact of multiple companies which is why I need to match against multiple keys)
Thanks.
