json-deserializer
Attempts to deserialize objects into a format that json.dumps/json.loads can use.
- Anything that is a Sequence, but not a str will be cast to a list.
- All Mappings will be cast to dicts
- Decimal to floats
- Callable to string (will return Object.repr)
- NamedTuple to dict
Usage Example
>>> from json import dumps
>>> from collections import UserDict
>>> from json_deserializer import deserialize
>>>
>>> class MyDict(UserDict):
>>> pass
>>>
>>> d = MyDict({"foo": "bar"})
>>> try:
>>> dumps(d)
>>> except Exception as e:
>>> print(e)
Object of type MyDict is not JSON serializable
>>> dumps(d, default=deserialize)
'{"foo": "bar"}'
You can also import dump, load, dumps, and loads directly from json_deserializer which will call json.loads, json.dumps with default=json_deserializer.deserialize.
