如何使一个Python类序列化?

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

尝试序列化为JSON:

>>> import json
>>> x = FileItem('/foo/bar')
>>> json.dumps(x)
TypeError: Object of type 'FileItem' is not JSON serializable

这是我的3美分… 这演示了一个树状python对象的显式json序列化。 注意:如果你真的想要这样的代码,你可以使用twisted FilePath类。

import json, sys, os

class File:
    def __init__(self, path):
        self.path = path

    def isdir(self):
        return os.path.isdir(self.path)

    def isfile(self):
        return os.path.isfile(self.path)

    def children(self):        
        return [File(os.path.join(self.path, f)) 
                for f in os.listdir(self.path)]

    def getsize(self):        
        return os.path.getsize(self.path)

    def getModificationTime(self):
        return os.path.getmtime(self.path)

def _default(o):
    d = {}
    d['path'] = o.path
    d['isFile'] = o.isfile()
    d['isDir'] = o.isdir()
    d['mtime'] = int(o.getModificationTime())
    d['size'] = o.getsize() if o.isfile() else 0
    if o.isdir(): d['children'] = o.children()
    return d

folder = os.path.abspath('.')
json.dump(File(folder), sys.stdout, default=_default)

其他回答

import simplejson

class User(object):
    def __init__(self, name, mail):
        self.name = name
        self.mail = mail

    def _asdict(self):
        return self.__dict__

print(simplejson.dumps(User('alice', 'alice@mail.com')))

如果使用标准json,则需要定义一个默认函数

import json
def default(o):
    return o._asdict()

print(json.dumps(User('alice', 'alice@mail.com'), default=default))

这对我来说很有效:

class JsonSerializable(object):

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

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

    @staticmethod
    def dumper(obj):
        if "serialize" in dir(obj):
            return obj.serialize()

        return obj.__dict__

然后

class FileItem(JsonSerializable):
    ...

and

log.debug(json.dumps(<my object>, default=JsonSerializable.dumper, indent=2))

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。

我选择使用装饰器来解决datetime对象序列化问题。 这是我的代码:

#myjson.py
#Author: jmooremcc 7/16/2017

import json
from datetime import datetime, date, time, timedelta
"""
This module uses decorators to serialize date objects using json
The filename is myjson.py
In another module you simply add the following import statement:
    from myjson import json

json.dumps and json.dump will then correctly serialize datetime and date 
objects
"""

def json_serial(obj):
    """JSON serializer for objects not serializable by default json code"""

    if isinstance(obj, (datetime, date)):
        serial = str(obj)
        return serial
    raise TypeError ("Type %s not serializable" % type(obj))


def FixDumps(fn):
    def hook(obj):
        return fn(obj, default=json_serial)

    return hook

def FixDump(fn):
    def hook(obj, fp):
        return fn(obj,fp, default=json_serial)

    return hook


json.dumps=FixDumps(json.dumps)
json.dump=FixDump(json.dump)


if __name__=="__main__":
    today=datetime.now()
    data={'atime':today, 'greet':'Hello'}
    str=json.dumps(data)
    print str

通过导入上述模块,我的其他模块以正常的方式(没有指定默认关键字)使用json来序列化包含日期时间对象的数据。datetime序列化器代码会自动为json调用。Dumps和json.dump。

TLDR:复制-粘贴下面的选项1或选项2

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"
