Efficiently Parse Large JSON Files with System.Text.Json in C-

Dealing with large JSON files can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to memory management and efficiency. If you have ever faced the issue of wanting to extract specific data from a bulky JSON file without loading the entire file into memory, you’re in the right place. In this guide, we will dive into how to parse a sizable JSON file using System.Text.Json in C-, allowing you to retrieve specific values based on coordinates.

Understanding the Structure of the JSON

Before we start extracting values, it’s essential to understand the format of the JSON we are working with. Consider the following snippet of a typical JSON structure representing a location:

This snippet contains geographical information such as the country, city name, and coordinates (latitude and longitude). Given that your JSON file may contain substantial amounts of similar data, we need a plan to effectively parse and filter it.

Defining a Class for JSON Deserialization

To work with this data in C-, we first need to define a class that corresponds to the structure of the JSON. Here’s a basic implementation of a Location class:

Adding JSON Property Attributes

In order to deserialize the JSON file into an instance of the Location class, it's crucial to ensure that the JSON property names match with the C- class properties. If the names differ, we can use the JsonPropertyName attribute to map them correctly:

Creating a Filtered Location Collection

To efficiently extract the desired data based on given coordinates, we can create a custom collection that inherits from Collection<Location>. This collection will filter the deserialized instances of Location:

Deserializing the JSON File

With our collection set up, we can now deserialize the JSON file as follows:

Now, the locations collection will only contain instances that match the specified latitude and longitude, minimizing the amount of data loaded into memory.

Conclusion

By following the outlined steps, you can efficiently read large JSON files without overwhelming your system's memory. This method not only streamlines data handling but also ensures that you retrieve specific information based on your needs effectively.

By using the System.Text.Json library with a custom filtered collection, you can ensure that you are only working with the data that is directly relevant to your application, allowing for improved performance when handling large data files.
