如何为JSON字符串对象赋予要读取的属性？

Question

I'm trying to use JSON to select objects from a list, then delete those objects once they've been selected. I keep running into errors telling me

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'read'

path_album_list = 'C:\\Users\\steve\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python36\\albums.json'
albums = json.load(path_album_list)
album = random.choice(albums)
print ('Today\'s soundtrack is "%s."' % album)
albums.remove(album)
json.dump(albums, path_album_list)

I also tried using json.loads , but then I got even more errors:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\steve\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\randomizer.py", line 20, in <module>
    albums = json.loads(path_album_list)
  File "C:\Users\steve\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\json\__init__.py", line 354, in loads
    return _default_decoder.decode(s)
  File "C:\Users\steve\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\json\decoder.py", line 339, in decode
    obj, end = self.raw_decode(s, idx=_w(s, 0).end())
  File "C:\Users\steve\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python36\lib\json\decoder.py", line 357, in raw_decode
    raise JSONDecodeError("Expecting value", s, err.value) from None
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)*

Answer 1

json.load takes a file object, not a string. So you need to do this:

path_album_list = 'C:\\Users\\steve\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python36\\albums.json'
jsonfile = open(path_album_list, "r")
albums = json.load(jsonfile)
jsonfile.close()
# ...
jsonfile = open(path_album_list, "w")
json.dump(albums, jsonfile)
jsonfile.close()

Or, you can use with statements, but the above is probably easier to understand.

path_album_list = 'C:\\Users\\steve\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python36\\albums.json'
with open(path_album_list, "r") as jsonfile:
    albums = json.load(jsonfile)
# ...
with open(path_album_list, "w") as jsonfile:
    json.dump(albums, jsonfile)

The reason you need to open the files is that json interacts with files, not with strings of the file path.
