I have a sample.json file as follows:
{
"testA":
{
"testid":123,
"placed":"C:/test/testA"
},
"testB":
{
"testid":456,
"placed":"C:/test/testB"
},
"testC":
{
"testid":789,
"placed":"C:/test/testC"
},
"testD":
{
"testid":101,
"placed":"C:/test/testD"
}
}
I have to fetch the testid of each test section and get it in a following from:
{
"Output" :{
"test_Idlist":[
"123",
"456",
"789",
"101"
]
},
"ReturnCode": "OK"
}
I did the following script:
with open("c:/sample.json", 'r') as f:
data = json.load(f)
out = data
ret_val = '{'+"\n"+'"Output" :{\n "test_Idlist":[\n';
for val in out:
ret_val += '"'+val+'"' +",\n";
print( ret_val + ']\n'+'},\n "ReturnCode": "OK"'+'\n}')
and i get th output as :
{
"Output" :{
"test_Idlist":[
"123",
"456",
"789",
"101", # the comma at this point is making json invalid
]
},
"ReturnCode": "OK"
}
So, tell me how do i ommit comma at the last enrty"101". I tried using rstrip but it didnt worked also if the same can be done in other way then plz suggest how. I want the output to be in valid json format.
I don't understand why you would try and build this up using strings. JSON is a data interchange format, and it is trivial to convert it to and from Python data structures.
You are already loading your input data; all you need to do is to build up your output data still in Python, then dump it at the end.
with open("c:/sample.json", 'r') as f:
data = json.load(f)
ids = [str(item["testid"]) for item in data.values()]
output = {'Output': {'test_Idlist': ids}, 'ReturnCode': 'OK'}
ret_val = json.dumps(output)
You can skip the last one in your loop and add it after the loop without a comma at the end:
for val in out[:-1]: # skip the last one
ret_val += '"'+val+'"' +",\n";
ret_val += '"'+val+'"' +"\n" # add the last one without a comma
