Ways to convert string to json object
Data send and get generally in a string of dictionary(JSON objects) forms in many web API%u2019s to use that data to extract meaningful information we need to convert that data in dictionary form and use for further operations.
Let%u2019s see some ways to convert string to json.
Method #1: dict object to string object using json.loads
# Python code to demonstrate # converting string to json # using json.loads import json # inititialising json object ini_string = {'nikhil': 1, 'akash' : 5, 'manjeet' : 10, 'akshat' : 15} # printing initial json ini_string = json.dumps(ini_string) print ("initial 1st dictionary", ini_string) print ("type of ini_object", type(ini_string)) # converting string to json final_dictionary = json.loads(ini_string) # printing final result print ("final dictionary", str(final_dictionary)) print ("type of final_dictionary", type(final_dictionary))
output:
initial 1st dictionary {'manjeet': 10, 'nikhil': 1, 'akshat': 15, 'akash': 5} type of ini_object <type 'str'> final dictionary {'nikhil': 1, 'manjeet': 10, 'akshat': 15, 'akash': 5} type of final_dictionary <type 'dict'>
Method #2: str object to dict object using eval()
# Python code to demonstrate # converting string to json # using eval # inititialising json object string ini_string = """{'nikhil': 1, 'akash' : 5, 'manjeet' : 10, 'akshat' : 15}""" # printing initial json print ("initial 1st dictionary", ini_string) print ("type of ini_object", type(ini_string)) # converting string to json final_dictionary = eval(ini_string) # printing final result print ("final dictionary", str(final_dictionary)) print ("type of final_dictionary", type(final_dictionary))
output:
initial 1st dictionary {'nikhil': 1, 'akash' : 5, 'manjeet' : 10, 'akshat' : 15} type of ini_object <class 'str'> final dictionary {'nikhil': 1, 'manjeet': 10, 'akash': 5, 'akshat': 15} type of final_dictionary <class 'dict'>
