r"""JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) <http://json.org> is a subset of
|
|
JavaScript syntax (ECMA-262 3rd edition) used as a lightweight data
|
|
interchange format.
|
|
|
|
:mod:`json` exposes an API familiar to users of the standard library
|
|
:mod:`marshal` and :mod:`pickle` modules. It is the externally maintained
|
|
version of the :mod:`json` library contained in Python 2.6, but maintains
|
|
compatibility with Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 and (currently) has
|
|
significant performance advantages, even without using the optional C
|
|
extension for speedups.
|
|
|
|
Encoding basic Python object hierarchies::
|
|
|
|
>>> import json
|
|
>>> json.dumps(['foo', {'bar': ('baz', None, 1.0, 2)}])
|
|
'["foo", {"bar": ["baz", null, 1.0, 2]}]'
|
|
>>> print json.dumps("\"foo\bar")
|
|
"\"foo\bar"
|
|
>>> print json.dumps(u'\u1234')
|
|
"\u1234"
|
|
>>> print json.dumps('\\')
|
|
"\\"
|
|
>>> print json.dumps({"c": 0, "b": 0, "a": 0}, sort_keys=True)
|
|
{"a": 0, "b": 0, "c": 0}
|
|
>>> from StringIO import StringIO
|
|
>>> io = StringIO()
|
|
>>> json.dump(['streaming API'], io)
|
|
>>> io.getvalue()
|
|
'["streaming API"]'
|
|
|
|
Compact encoding::
|
|
|
|
>>> import json
|
|
>>> json.dumps([1,2,3,{'4': 5, '6': 7}], separators=(',',':'))
|
|
'[1,2,3,{"4":5,"6":7}]'
|
|
|
|
Pretty printing::
|
|
|
|
>>> import json
|
|
>>> s = json.dumps({'4': 5, '6': 7}, sort_keys=True, indent=4)
|
|
>>> print '\n'.join([l.rstrip() for l in s.splitlines()])
|
|
{
|
|
"4": 5,
|
|
"6": 7
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Decoding JSON::
|
|
|
|
>>> import json
|
|
>>> obj = [u'foo', {u'bar': [u'baz', None, 1.0, 2]}]
|
|
>>> json.loads('["foo", {"bar":["baz", null, 1.0, 2]}]') == obj
|
|
True
|
|
>>> json.loads('"\\"foo\\bar"') == u'"foo\x08ar'
|
|
True
|
|
>>> from StringIO import StringIO
|
|
>>> io = StringIO('["streaming API"]')
|
|
>>> json.load(io)[0] == 'streaming API'
|
|
True
|
|
|
|
Specializing JSON object decoding::
|
|
|
|
>>> import json
|
|
>>> def as_complex(dct):
|
|
... if '__complex__' in dct:
|
|
... return complex(dct['real'], dct['imag'])
|
|
... return dct
|
|
...
|
|
>>> json.loads('{"__complex__": true, "real": 1, "imag": 2}',
|
|
... object_hook=as_complex)
|
|
(1+2j)
|
|
>>> from decimal import Decimal
|
|
>>> json.loads('1.1', parse_float=Decimal) == Decimal('1.1')
|
|
True
|
|
|
|
Specializing JSON object encoding::
|
|
|
|
>>> import json
|
|
>>> def encode_complex(obj):
|
|
... if isinstance(obj, complex):
|
|
... return [obj.real, obj.imag]
|
|
... raise TypeError(repr(o) + " is not JSON serializable")
|
|
...
|
|
>>> json.dumps(2 + 1j, default=encode_complex)
|
|
'[2.0, 1.0]'
|
|
>>> json.JSONEncoder(default=encode_complex).encode(2 + 1j)
|
|
'[2.0, 1.0]'
|
|
>>> ''.join(json.JSONEncoder(default=encode_complex).iterencode(2 + 1j))
|
|
'[2.0, 1.0]'
|
|
|
|
|
|
Using json.tool from the shell to validate and pretty-print::
|
|
|
|
$ echo '{"json":"obj"}' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"json": "obj"
|
|
}
|
|
$ echo '{ 1.2:3.4}' | python -m json.tool
