如何将带有反斜杠的字符串转换为json

Question

How do I convert this string u'{\\'name\\': "User", \\'valid\\': False}' to json using .loads() .

I get a

*** ValueError: Expecting property name enclosed in double quotes: line 1 column 2 (char 1)

and I don't want to use .eval() or ast_literals() .

Answer 1

This does not look like a valid JSON - there should be double quote strings instead of single quote strings and false instead of False . ast.literal_eval() would handle it as is, but if you want to use json.loads() you would have to fix it before loading, for this sample input:

>>> import json
>>>
>>> s = u'{\'name\': "User", \'valid\': False}'
>>> s = s.replace("\'", '"').replace("False", "false")
>>> json.loads(s)
{u'valid': False, u'name': u'User'}

Note that this is not really reliable.
