json
– JSON encoding and decoding¶
This module implements a subset of the corresponding CPython module,
as described below. For more information, refer to the original
CPython documentation: json
.
This modules allows to convert between Python objects and the JSON data format.
Functions¶
- json.dump(obj, stream, separators=None)¶
Serialise obj to a JSON string, writing it to the given stream.
If specified, separators should be an
(item_separator, key_separator)
tuple. The default is(', ', ': ')
. To get the most compact JSON representation, you should specify(',', ':')
to eliminate whitespace.
- json.dumps(obj, separators=None)¶
Return obj represented as a JSON string.
The arguments have the same meaning as in
dump
.
- json.load(stream)¶
Parse the given stream, interpreting it as a JSON string and deserialising the data to a Python object. The resulting object is returned.
Parsing continues until end-of-file is encountered. A
ValueError
is raised if the data in stream is not correctly formed.
- json.loads(str)¶
Parse the JSON str and return an object. Raises
ValueError
if the string is not correctly formed.
