真正的/完整的答案:让Pythons json模块与你的类一起工作

AKA，求解:json。dump ({"thing": YOUR_CLASS()})

解释:

Yes, a good reliable solution exists No, there is no python "official" solution By official solution, I mean there is no way (as of 2023) to add a method to your class (like toJSON in JavaScript) and/or no way to register your class with the built-in json module. When something like json.dumps([1,2, your_obj]) is executed, python doesn't check a lookup table or object method. I'm not sure why other answers don't explain this The closest official approach is probably andyhasit's answer which is to inherit from a dictionary. However, inheriting from a dictionary doesn't work very well for many custom classes like AdvancedDateTime, or pytorch tensors. The ideal workaround is this: Mutate json.dumps (affects everywhere, even pip modules that import json) Add def __json__(self) method to your class

选项1:让一个模块来做补丁

PIP安装json-fix (扩展+包装版FancyJohn的回答，谢谢@FancyJohn)

your_class_definition.py

import json_fix

class YOUR_CLASS:
    def __json__(self):
        # YOUR CUSTOM CODE HERE
        #    you probably just want to do:
        #        return self.__dict__
        return "a built-in object that is naturally json-able"

这是它。

使用示例:

from your_class_definition import YOUR_CLASS
import json

json.dumps([1,2, YOUR_CLASS()], indent=0)
# '[\n1,\n2,\n"a built-in object that is naturally json-able"\n]'

生成json。dump适用于Numpy数组，Pandas DataFrames和其他第三方对象，请参阅模块(只有大约2行代码，但需要解释)。

它是如何工作的?嗯…

选项2:补丁json。把你自己

注意:这种方法是简化的，它在已知的edgcase上失败(例如:如果你的自定义类继承了dict或其他内置类)，并且它错过了控制外部类的json行为(numpy数组，datetime, dataframes，张量等)。

some_file_thats_imported_before_your_class_definitions.py

# Step: 1
# create the patch
from json import JSONEncoder
def wrapped_default(self, obj):
    return getattr(obj.__class__, "__json__", wrapped_default.default)(obj)
wrapped_default.default = JSONEncoder().default
   
# apply the patch
JSONEncoder.original_default = JSONEncoder.default
JSONEncoder.default = wrapped_default

your_class_definition.py

# Step 2
class YOUR_CLASS:
    def __json__(self, **options):
        # YOUR CUSTOM CODE HERE
        #    you probably just want to do:
        #        return self.__dict__
        return "a built-in object that is natually json-able"

其他答案似乎都是“序列化自定义对象的最佳实践/方法”

在这里的文档中已经介绍过了(搜索“complex”可以找到编码复数的例子)

这个函数使用递归迭代遍历字典的每个部分，然后调用非内置类型类的repr()方法。

def sterilize(obj):
    object_type = type(obj)
    if isinstance(obj, dict):
        return {k: sterilize(v) for k, v in obj.items()}
    elif object_type in (list, tuple):
        return [sterilize(v) for v in obj]
    elif object_type in (str, int, bool, float):
        return obj
    else:
        return obj.__repr__()

前几天我遇到了这个问题，并为Python对象实现了一个更通用的Encoder版本，可以处理嵌套对象和继承字段:

import json
import inspect

class ObjectEncoder(json.JSONEncoder):
    def default(self, obj):
        if hasattr(obj, "to_json"):
            return self.default(obj.to_json())
        elif hasattr(obj, "__dict__"):
            d = dict(
                (key, value)
                for key, value in inspect.getmembers(obj)
                if not key.startswith("__")
                and not inspect.isabstract(value)
                and not inspect.isbuiltin(value)
                and not inspect.isfunction(value)
                and not inspect.isgenerator(value)
                and not inspect.isgeneratorfunction(value)
                and not inspect.ismethod(value)
                and not inspect.ismethoddescriptor(value)
                and not inspect.isroutine(value)
            )
            return self.default(d)
        return obj

例子:

class C(object):
    c = "NO"
    def to_json(self):
        return {"c": "YES"}

class B(object):
    b = "B"
    i = "I"
    def __init__(self, y):
        self.y = y
        
    def f(self):
        print "f"

class A(B):
    a = "A"
    def __init__(self):
        self.b = [{"ab": B("y")}]
        self.c = C()

print json.dumps(A(), cls=ObjectEncoder, indent=2, sort_keys=True)

结果:

{
  "a": "A", 
  "b": [
    {
      "ab": {
        "b": "B", 
        "i": "I", 
        "y": "y"
      }
    }
  ], 
  "c": {
    "c": "YES"
  }, 
  "i": "I"
}

为了给这场11年的大火再添一根柴，我想要一个满足以下条件的解决方案:

只允许使用json.dumps(obj)序列化类FileItem的实例 允许FileItem实例具有属性:FileItem .fname 允许FileItem实例提供给任何库，使用json.dumps(obj)序列化它 不需要将任何其他字段传递给json。转储(如自定义序列化器)

IE:

fileItem = FileItem('filename.ext')
assert json.dumps(fileItem) == '{"fname": "filename.ext"}'
assert fileItem.fname == 'filename.ext'

我的解决方案是:

obj的类是否继承自dict 将每个对象属性映射到底层字典

class FileItem(dict):
    def __init__(self, fname):
        self['fname'] = fname

    #fname property
    fname: str = property()
    @fname.getter
    def fname(self):
        return self['fname']

    @fname.setter
    def fname(self, value: str):
        self['fname'] = value

    #Repeat for other properties

是的，如果你有很多属性，这有点冗长，但它是JSONSerializable，它的行为像一个对象，你可以把它给任何库，去json.dumps(obj)它。

另一种选择是将JSON转储打包到它自己的类中:

import json

class FileItem:
    def __init__(self, fname):
        self.fname = fname

    def __repr__(self):
        return json.dumps(self.__dict__)

或者，更好的是，从JsonSerializable类继承FileItem类:

import json

class JsonSerializable(object):
    def toJson(self):
        return json.dumps(self.__dict__)

    def __repr__(self):
        return self.toJson()


class FileItem(JsonSerializable):
    def __init__(self, fname):
        self.fname = fname

测试:

>>> f = FileItem('/foo/bar')
>>> f.toJson()
'{"fname": "/foo/bar"}'
>>> f
'{"fname": "/foo/bar"}'
>>> str(f) # string coercion
'{"fname": "/foo/bar"}'

解决这个问题有很多方法。'ObjDict' (pip install object)是另一个。重点是提供像javascript一样的对象，它也可以像字典一样最好地处理从JSON加载的数据，但还有其他功能也很有用。这为原始问题提供了另一种解决方案。
