I have a JSON to start with where there are key fields that may or may not have value field; I have to remove those keys. Example JSON:
str= '{"key1": "val1_start_:,?val1end", "key2": "key3": "val3_start:,?val3end", "key4": "value4", "key5": "value5", "key6" : "key7": "value7"}'
Here I have to remove key2 and key6 to make it a valid json.
The expected output would be something like this
{"key1": "val1_start:,?val1end", "key3": "val3_start:,?_val3end", "key4": "value4", "key5": "value5", "key7": "value7"}
How to do this in Ruby/regex?
I thought of splitting based on : or , but colons and commas can be part of my value field.
Any ruby regex would be preferred, Please help !
