I'd like to use orgChart.js (https://github.com/dabeng/OrgChart/tree/master/demo) which expects properly formed json dictionaries, nested if there are dictionaries within dictionaries.
But my data is in parent child record format. Is there a method for creating nested json that represents, for example, a taxonomy such as at http://wwwendt.de/tech/fancytree/demo/taxonomy-browser/? FancyTree.js supports loading flat, parent referencing tables but orgChart expects data to look like: { 'name': 'Lao Lao', 'title': 'general manager', 'children': [ { 'name': 'Bo Miao', 'title': 'department manager' }, { 'name': 'Su Miao', 'title': 'department manager', 'children': [ { 'name': 'Tie Hua', 'title': 'senior engineer' }, { 'name': 'Hei Hei', 'title': 'senior engineer' } ] }, { 'name': 'Hong Miao', 'title': 'department manager' }, { 'name': 'Chun Miao', 'title': 'department manager' } ] }; Could Pandas be used to convert the data? thanks, Alex Glaros -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
