1 r"""JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) <http://json.org> is a subset of |
|
2 JavaScript syntax (ECMA-262 3rd edition) used as a lightweight data |
|
3 interchange format. |
|
4 |
|
5 :mod:`simplejson` exposes an API familiar to users of the standard library |
|
6 :mod:`marshal` and :mod:`pickle` modules. It is the externally maintained |
|
7 version of the :mod:`json` library contained in Python 2.6, but maintains |
|
8 compatibility with Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 and (currently) has |
|
9 significant performance advantages, even without using the optional C |
|
10 extension for speedups. |
|
11 |
|
12 Encoding basic Python object hierarchies:: |
|
13 |
|
14 >>> import simplejson as json |
|
15 >>> json.dumps(['foo', {'bar': ('baz', None, 1.0, 2)}]) |
|
16 '["foo", {"bar": ["baz", null, 1.0, 2]}]' |
|
17 >>> print json.dumps("\"foo\bar") |
|
18 "\"foo\bar" |
|
19 >>> print json.dumps(u'\u1234') |
|
20 "\u1234" |
|
21 >>> print json.dumps('\\') |
|
22 "\\" |
|
23 >>> print json.dumps({"c": 0, "b": 0, "a": 0}, sort_keys=True) |
|
24 {"a": 0, "b": 0, "c": 0} |
|
25 >>> from StringIO import StringIO |
|
26 >>> io = StringIO() |
|
27 >>> json.dump(['streaming API'], io) |
|
28 >>> io.getvalue() |
|
29 '["streaming API"]' |
|
30 |
|
31 Compact encoding:: |
|
32 |
|
33 >>> import simplejson as json |
|
34 >>> json.dumps([1,2,3,{'4': 5, '6': 7}], separators=(',',':')) |
|
35 '[1,2,3,{"4":5,"6":7}]' |
|
36 |
|
37 Pretty printing:: |
|
38 |
|
39 >>> import simplejson as json |
|
40 >>> s = json.dumps({'4': 5, '6': 7}, sort_keys=True, indent=4) |
|
41 >>> print '\n'.join([l.rstrip() for l in s.splitlines()]) |
|
42 { |
|
43 "4": 5, |
|
44 "6": 7 |
|
45 } |
|
46 |
|
47 Decoding JSON:: |
|
48 |
|
49 >>> import simplejson as json |
|
50 >>> obj = [u'foo', {u'bar': [u'baz', None, 1.0, 2]}] |
|
51 >>> json.loads('["foo", {"bar":["baz", null, 1.0, 2]}]') == obj |
|
52 True |
|
53 >>> json.loads('"\\"foo\\bar"') == u'"foo\x08ar' |
|
54 True |
|
55 >>> from StringIO import StringIO |
|
56 >>> io = StringIO('["streaming API"]') |
|
57 >>> json.load(io)[0] == 'streaming API' |
|
58 True |
|
59 |
|
60 Specializing JSON object decoding:: |
|
61 |
|
62 >>> import simplejson as json |
|
63 >>> def as_complex(dct): |
|
64 ... if '__complex__' in dct: |
|
65 ... return complex(dct['real'], dct['imag']) |
|
66 ... return dct |
|
67 ... |
|
68 >>> json.loads('{"__complex__": true, "real": 1, "imag": 2}', |
|
69 ... object_hook=as_complex) |
|
70 (1+2j) |
|
71 >>> import decimal |
|
72 >>> json.loads('1.1', parse_float=decimal.Decimal) == decimal.Decimal('1.1') |
|
73 True |
|
74 |
|
75 Specializing JSON object encoding:: |
|
76 |
|
77 >>> import simplejson as json |
|
78 >>> def encode_complex(obj): |
|
79 ... if isinstance(obj, complex): |
|
80 ... return [obj.real, obj.imag] |
|
81 ... raise TypeError("%r is not JSON serializable" % (o,)) |
|
82 ... |
|
83 >>> json.dumps(2 + 1j, default=encode_complex) |
|
84 '[2.0, 1.0]' |
|
85 >>> json.JSONEncoder(default=encode_complex).encode(2 + 1j) |
|
86 '[2.0, 1.0]' |
|
87 >>> ''.join(json.JSONEncoder(default=encode_complex).iterencode(2 + 1j)) |
|
88 '[2.0, 1.0]' |
|
89 |
|
90 |
|
91 Using simplejson.tool from the shell to validate and pretty-print:: |
|
92 |
|
93 $ echo '{"json":"obj"}' | python -msimplejson.tool |
|
94 { |
|
95 "json": "obj" |
|
96 } |
|
97 $ echo '{ 1.2:3.4}' | python -msimplejson.tool |
|
