First, a simple question on terms,
Encoding( json.dumps
) means, converting something to json string,
decoding( json.loads
) means, converting json string to json type(?)
I have a list of objects which I got from
>>> album_image_list = AlbumImage.objects.all().values(*fields)[offset:count]
>>> json.dumps(album_image_list[0], cls=DjangoJSONEncoder)
'{"album": 4, "album__title": "g jfd", "created_at": "2012-08-18T02:23:49Z", "height": 1024.0, "width": 512.0, "url_image": "http://--:8000/media/101ac908-df50-42cc-af6f-b172c8829a31.jpg"}'
but when I try the same on whole list (album_image_list),it fails...
>>> json.dumps(album_image_list, cls=DjangoJSONEncoder)

Why does it succeed on one element and fails on the list?
If you want to just dump a dictionary to JSON, just use json.dumps. It can easily be made to serialize objects by passing in a custom serialization class - there's one included with Django that deals with datetimes already:
from django.core.serializers.json import DjangoJSONEncoder
json.dumps(mydictionary, cls=DjangoJSONEncoder)
.values()
doesn't actually return a list. It returns a ValuesQuerySet
which is not serializable by the json module. Try converting album_image_list
to a list:
json.dumps(list(album_image_list), cls=DjangoJSONEncoder)
Which DjangoJSONEncoder you are using? it looks like DjangoJSONEncoder may not support encoding list of results.
Try this:
class DateTimeJSONEncoder(json.JSONEncoder):
def default(self, obj):
if isinstance(obj, datetime.datetime):
return obj.isoformat()
else:
return super(DateTimeJSONEncoder, self).default(obj)
updated_at=DateTimeJSONEncoder().encode(p.updated_at)
This will help you to serialize datetime object
