Extracting metadata#
Generally, we want to include metadata available in the JSON file into the documents that we create from the content.
The following demonstrates how metadata can be extracted using the JSONLoader.
There are some key changes to be noted. In the previous example where we didn’t collect the metadata, we managed to directly specify in the schema where the value for the page_content can be extracted from.
.messages[].content
In the current example, we have to tell the loader to iterate over the records in the messages field. The jq_schema then has to be:
.messages[]
This allows us to pass the records (dict) into the metadata_func that has to be implemented. The metadata_func is responsible for identifying which pieces of information in the record should be included in the metadata stored in the final Document object.
