JSON to CSV

Category: Serialisation

Status: Registered and callable in the CyberChef 11.3.0 compatibility inventory.

Input / output: JSON → string

Background: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values

What it does

Converts JSON data to a CSV based on the definition in RFC 4180.

Note

Status here means the operation name is implemented and callable. It does not by itself promise byte-for-byte parity for every upstream option. See Compatibility and current status for the verified scope and known boundaries.

Arguments and options

Arguments are positional. Keep their order when using bake() or Pipeline.then().

Index	Name	UI type	PyChef default	Accepted values / format
`0`	Cell delimiter	`binaryShortString`	`','`	`','`
`1`	Row delimiter	`binaryShortString`	`'\\r\\n'`	`'\\r\\n'`

Recipe template

Important

This is a call template built from the documented defaults. Replace placeholder values such as empty keys, paths, patterns, or lookup data before running it.

from pychef import bake

input_value = "example"
args = [',', '\\r\\n']
result = bake(input_value, [{"op": 'JSON to CSV', "args": args}])
print(result)

Pipeline example

from pychef import Pipeline

args = [',', '\\r\\n']
transform = Pipeline().then('JSON to CSV', *args)
result = transform("example")

Dedicated operation module

The registered entry point lives in pychef.operations.by_operation.json_to_csv. Direct calls receive the input value and a positional argument tuple:

from pychef.operations.by_operation.json_to_csv import run

result = run("example", tuple([',', '\\r\\n']))

pychef.operations.by_operation.json_to_csv.run(value, args)

Run this operation using its shared internal implementation.

Parameters:

value (str | bytes)
args (Sequence[Any])

Return type:

str | bytes
