在Python中用多列组成嵌套JSON

Question

I have a csv file and trying to compose JSON from it. There are mulitple records in a file but I am just giving one set of sample records here.This structure is driven on the claimID. There is nesting on the claimLineDetail and claimSpecDiag.I guess I have to create some sort of list to handle this then the problem is how am I going to append it in the required structure. I really need some guidance here to achieve the desired result. Is it possible to break out different sections and append it later, I am not sure just assuming, as there are multiple columns.

Code :

import csv,json

data = []
with open('JsonRequestPricingMedical.csv','r') as f:
    reader = csv.DictReader(f)
    for row in reader:
        print row

csv file :

claimId,subscriberId,claimType,claimSubType,providerId,totalChargeAmt,claimLineNo,pos_code,procedureCode,subdiagnosisCode,svcLineFromDt,svcLineToDt,chargedAmt,clmLineUnits,presentOnAdmit,diagnosisCode
18A000730400,101924200,M,M,002664514003,585,1,11,92014,H43393,2017-06-19,2017-06-19,160,1,U,H43393
18A000730400,101924200,M,M,002664514003,585,2,12,92015,H43395,2017-06-19,2017-06-19,160,2,U,H43394

Desired JSON

When you read a csv, each line represents variables separated by a special char, in your case, comas: ",".

You can get each variable separated by doing line_variables = row.split(',')

Just pass the first line, and for all the other, do something like:

result = {
   "claimsHeader":" {
    "claimId": line_variables[0],
    "subscriberId": line_variables[1],
    "claimType":{
        "code": line_variables[2]
    }
...

Finaly, just add the result to a list (created just before your for loop) with your_list.append(result) .
