Remove/delete json value (multiple array) - arrays

Question

I want to remove 'Software 3' in the array. I'm quite new with json data and I do not know what is the correct way to do it. I have tried the unset method but its not working. Can anyone show me the example. I already search the solution but most of it not using multiple array.
json data:
"system_info": {
"hardware": {
"model": "PowerEdge R710",
"serialno": "FG6MC2S",
"warranty": {
"warranty_start_date": "2022-03-14",
"warranty_end_date": "2025-03-14"
}
},
"operating_env": {
"os": "PowerEdge R710",
"os_version": "FG6MC2S"
},
"software_installed": [
{
"name": "Software 1",
"version": "4.5"
},
{
"name": "Software 2",
"version": "5.5"
},
{
"name": "Software 3",
"version": "5.5"
}
]},

Answer 1

Using javascript
const data = {
system_info: {
hardware: {
model: 'PowerEdge R710',
serialno: 'FG6MC2S',
warranty: {
warranty_start_date: '2022-03-14',
warranty_end_date: '2025-03-14',
},
},
operating_env: {
os: 'PowerEdge R710',
os_version: 'FG6MC2S',
},
software_installed: [
{
name: 'Software 1',
version: '4.5',
},
{
name: 'Software 2',
version: '5.5',
},
{
name: 'Software 3',
version: '5.5',
},
],
},
};
const { system_info: { hardware, operating_env, software_installed } } = data;
const newData = {
system_info: {
hardware,
operating_env,
software_installed: software_installed.filter(s => s.name !== 'Software 3')
}
}
console.log(newData);

Answer 2

Using python. I will assume that this data lives in data.json
remove_script.py
import json
# Opening JSON file
with open('data.json') as json_file:
data = json.load(json_file)
# Remove software 3
data['system_info'].update(
{"software_installed": data['system_info']['software_installed'][:2]})
print(data)
# write to another file
with open("output.json", "w") as write_file:
json.dump(data, write_file, indent=4)
printed output
>>> {'system_info': {'hardware': {'model': 'PowerEdge R710', 'serialno': 'FG6MC2S', 'warranty': {'warranty_start_date': '2022-03-14', 'warranty_end_date': '2025-03-14'}}, 'operating_env': {'os': 'PowerEdge R710', 'os_version': 'FG6MC2S'}, 'software_installed': [{'name': 'Software 1', 'version': '4.5'}, {'name': 'Software 2', 'version': '5.5'}]}}
output.json
{
"system_info": {
"hardware": {
"model": "PowerEdge R710",
"serialno": "FG6MC2S",
"warranty": {
"warranty_start_date": "2022-03-14",
"warranty_end_date": "2025-03-14"
}
},
"operating_env": {
"os": "PowerEdge R710",
"os_version": "FG6MC2S"
},
"software_installed": [
{
"name": "Software 1",
"version": "4.5"
},
{
"name": "Software 2",
"version": "5.5"
}
]
}
}
