JSONURI-PY

This package helps you convert Python dictionaries into an Gzip compressed, Base64 string for use as a HTTP GET request parameter and reverse it.

An example of a practical application would be to send JSON data over HTTP GET, e.g. to a static resource small.png, and harvest the data from access logs instead of running real-time data collection.

Note: You should avoid sending sensitive information using this mechanism, even if you're doing it over SSL.

Examples:

>>> from jsonuri import jsonuri
>>> data = {"age": 31, "name": "John", "account": {"id": 127, "regions": ["US", "SG"]}}
>>> jsonuri.serialize(data, b64_encode=True, uri_encode=False)

>>> ser = jsonuri.serialize(data, b64_encode=True, uri_encode=True)
