In notepad ++ how can I remove a property from all items in a json list

Question

I have a large json list that has this structure

  {
    "name": "my name",
    "description": "my description",
    "image": "image.png",       
    "id": 1
  },
  {
    "name": "my name",
    "description": "my description",
    "image": "image.png",       
    "id": 2
  }
...

My list is 100 items long. Is there a way to remove the "id" property (and value) from all the objects in the list using notepad++?

Answer 1

• Ctrl+H
• Find what: ,\s+"id":.+
• Replace with: LEAVE EMPTY
• CHECK Match case
• CHECK Wrap around
• CHECK Regular expression
• UNCHECK . matches newline
• Replace all

Explanation:

,           # a comma
\s+         # 1 or more spaces, including linebreak
"id":       # literally
.+          # 1 or more any character but newline
