I have a json file that contains an object with a dictionary within it:
{
"__class__": "monster",
"name": "Mugger",
"level": 1,
"hpTotal": 20,
"attacks": ["Sword", "Knife"],
"stats": {
"AC": 12,
"STR": 11,
"DEX": 12,
"CON": 12,
"INT": 10,
"WIS": 10,
"CHA": 10
}
}
I load it with the following function:
def loadCharacters(fileLoc):
with open(fileLoc) as character_data:
data = character_data.read()
characterDictionary = json.loads(data, object_hook=decode_character)
return characterDictionary
When i parse it through my decoder it is giving me a KeyError based on Class:
# Decode characters based on class
def decode_character(dct):
if dct['__class__'] == 'npc':
return character(dct["name"], dct["level"], dct["hpTotal"])
if dct['__class__'] == 'monster':
return monster(dct["name"], dct["level"], dct["hpTotal"], dct["attacks"], dct["stats"])
raise ValueError("Not a valid character dictionary")
Traceback report:
Traceback (most recent call last):

if dct['__class__'] == 'npc':
KeyError: '__class__'
I think that it is trying to parse the dictionary within the object. How do i get the whole object parsed and not just the sub dictionary?
The problem I see here is that you always expect the item __class__
to exist although it does not happen.
With the json-data you provide the function decode_character
will be called twice:
__class__
, name
, level
, etc. AC
, STR
, etc. I do not really know what you expect from you code but I would change the dct['__class__']
for dct.get('__clas__')
so that a KeyError is not arisen.
Here you can see an example.
