DataDance is a versatile data processing package that makes handling JSON transformations straightforward and efficient. Our package accepts JSON input and allows you to define transformations using a code-like format. Provide your data and transformation rules, and DataDance will process them to deliver the desired output.

Installation

Install DataDance from npm:

npm install @yakshavingdevs/datadance

Where Datadance Shines

In many ETL pipeline scenarios, executing third-party or user-provided code can be both an operational and security challenge. Managing and isolating this code often becomes a complex task. DataDance solves this problem by offering a unique solution where third-party or user logic is expressed as DataDance transforms. These transforms are easy to maintain and eliminate the need for a traditional programming language shell. Internally, DataDance uses a parser that executes the specified transforms on the input JSON and produces an output JSON, ensuring both simplicity and security.

Internals

• Parser & Evaluation Engine: DataDance at its core uses MozJexl expression language to parse and evaluate transformations.
• Dependencies:
  • mozjexl for expression evaluation.
  • luxon for date manipulation.
  • jsonpath for JSON querying.

Expression Language Reference

Refer to the MozJexl documentation for syntax and features available in the expression language.
