Flask API TypeError：“响应”类型的对象不是 JSON 可序列化的

Question

i have a problem with Python Flask Restful API and data goes to Elasticsearch, when i post a new data with Postman, problem is:

TypeError: Object of type 'Response' is not JSON serializable

Can you help me?

Model:

   from marshmallow import Schema, fields, validate

class Person(object):
    def __init__(self,tcno=None,firstname=None,lastname=None,email=None,birthday=None,country=None,gender=None):
        self.__tcno = tcno
        self.__firstname = firstname
        self.__lastname = lastname
        self.__email = email
        self.__birthday = birthday
        self.__country = country
        self.__gender = gender

    def __repr__(self):
        return '<Person(firstname={self.__firstname!r})>'.format(self=self)

class PersonSchema(Schema):
    tcno = fields.Str(required=True,validate=[validate.Length(min=11, max=11)])
    firstname = fields.Str(required=True)
    lastname = fields.Str(required=True)
    email = fields.Email(required=True,validate=validate.Email(error="Not a valid email"))
    birthday = fields.Date(required=True)
    country = fields.Str()
    gender = fields.Str()

TypeError: Object of type 'Response' is not JSON serializable

EDIT: I found problem. It was in def post(self,people_id) method:

   if errors:
        return jsonify({'errors': errors}), 422

new line:

if errors:
    message = json.dumps({'errors': errors})
    return Response(message, status=422, mimetype='application/json')

Answer 1

Inspired from this bug , here is a shorter way of doing it:

from flask import jsonify, make_response

def myMethod():
    ....
    return make_response(jsonify(data), 200)

Answer 2

This can be simply done by:

from flask import jsonify
def myMethod():
    ....
    response = jsonify(data)
    response.status_code = 200 # or 400 or whatever
    return response

Answer 3

我有一个类似的问题，问题是我使用了 jsonify 两次（ jsonify(jsonify({abc:123})) ）

Answer 4

def post(self):
    some_json=request.get_json()
    return jsonify({'you sent ':some_json})

enough to solve this issue

Answer 5

For this we can try

Step 1 : response=response.json()

Step 2 : response=json.dumps(response)
