1r"""JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) <http://json.org> is a subset of 2JavaScript syntax (ECMA-262 3rd edition) used as a lightweight data 3interchange format. 4 5:mod:`json` exposes an API familiar to users of the standard library 6:mod:`marshal` and :mod:`pickle` modules. It is the externally maintained 7version of the :mod:`json` library contained in Python 2.6, but maintains 8compatibility with Python 2.4 and Python 2.5 and (currently) has 9significant performance advantages, even without using the optional C 10extension for speedups. 11 12Encoding basic Python object hierarchies:: 13 14 >>> import 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 31Compact encoding:: 32 33 >>> import json 34 >>> json.dumps([1,2,3,{'4': 5, '6': 7}], sort_keys=True, separators=(',',':')) 35 '[1,2,3,{"4":5,"6":7}]' 36 37Pretty printing:: 38 39 >>> import json 40 >>> print json.dumps({'4': 5, '6': 7}, sort_keys=True, 41 ... indent=4, separators=(',', ': ')) 42 { 43 "4": 5, 44 "6": 7 45 } 46 47Decoding JSON:: 48 49 >>> import 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 60Specializing JSON object decoding:: 61 62 >>> import 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 >>> from decimal import Decimal 72 >>> json.loads('1.1', parse_float=Decimal) == Decimal('1.1') 73 True 74 75Specializing JSON object encoding:: 76 77 >>> import json 78 >>> def encode_complex(obj): 79 ... if isinstance(obj, complex): 80 ... return [obj.real, obj.imag] 81 ... raise TypeError(repr(o) + " is not JSON serializable") 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 91Using json.tool from the shell to validate and pretty-print:: 92 93 $ echo '{"json":"obj"}' | python -m json.tool 94 { 95 "json": "obj" 96 } 97 $ echo '{ 1.2:3.4}' | python -m json.tool 98 Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 1 column 3 (char 2) 99""" 100__version__ = '2.0.9' 101__all__ = [ 102 'dump', 'dumps', 'load', 'loads', 103 'JSONDecoder', 'JSONEncoder', 104] 105 106__author__ = 'Bob Ippolito <bob@redivi.com>' 107 108from .decoder import JSONDecoder 109from .encoder import JSONEncoder 110 111_default_encoder = JSONEncoder( 112 skipkeys=False, 113 ensure_ascii=True, 114 check_circular=True, 115 allow_nan=True, 116 indent=None, 117 separators=None, 118 encoding='utf-8', 119 default=None, 120) 121 122def dump(obj, fp, skipkeys=False, ensure_ascii=True, check_circular=True, 123 allow_nan=True, cls=None, indent=None, separators=None, 124 encoding='utf-8', default=None, sort_keys=False, **kw): 125 """Serialize ``obj`` as a JSON formatted stream to ``fp`` (a 126 ``.write()``-supporting file-like object). 127 128 If ``skipkeys`` is true then ``dict`` keys that are not basic types 129 (``str``, ``unicode``, ``int``, ``long``, ``float``, ``bool``, ``None``) 130 will be skipped instead of raising a ``TypeError``. 131 132 If ``ensure_ascii`` is true (the default), all non-ASCII characters in the 133 output are escaped with ``\uXXXX`` sequences, and the result is a ``str`` 134 instance consisting of ASCII characters only.
