Originally part of carrot (http://github.com/ask/carrot/) Examples -------- To serialize a python object to a JSON string, call the `serialize` function: >>> import anyjson >>> anyjson.serialize(["test", 1, {"foo": 3.141592}, "bar"]) '["test", 1, {"foo": 3.141592}, "bar"]' Conversion the other way is done with the `deserialize` call. >>> anyjson.deserialize("""["test", 1, {"foo": 3.141592}, "bar"]""") ['test', 1, {'foo': 3.1415920000000002}, 'bar'] Regardless of the JSON implementation used, the exceptions will be the same. This means that trying to serialize something not compatible with JSON raises a TypeError: >>> anyjson.serialize([object()]) Traceback (most recent call last): TypeError: object is not JSON encodable And deserializing a JSON string with invalid JSON raises a ValueError: >>> anyjson.deserialize("""['missing square brace!""") Traceback (most recent call last): ValueError: cannot parse JSON description Contact ------- The module is maintaned by Rune F. Halvorsen . The project resides at http://bitbucket.org/runeh/anyjson . Bugs and feature requests can be submitted there. Patches are also very welcome. Changelog --------- See CHANGELOG file License ------- see the LICENSE file
