Alec的回答很好，但在存在多层嵌套的情况下行不通。下面是一个支持多层嵌套的修改版本。如果嵌套对象已经指定了自己的键(例如Firebase Analytics / BigTable / BigQuery数据)，它也会使头名称更好一些:

这是@MikeRepass回答的修改。此版本将CSV写入文件，适用于Python 2和Python 3。

import csv,json
input_file="data.json"
output_file="data.csv"
with open(input_file) as f:
    content=json.load(f)
try:
    context=open(output_file,'w',newline='') # Python 3
except TypeError:
    context=open(output_file,'wb') # Python 2
with context as file:
    writer=csv.writer(file)
    writer.writerow(content[0].keys()) # header row
    for row in content:
        writer.writerow(row.values())

正如在前面的回答中提到的，将json转换为csv的困难在于json文件可以包含嵌套字典，因此是多维数据结构，而csv是2D数据结构。但是，将多维结构转换为csv的一个好方法是使用多个主键连接在一起的csv。

在你的例子中，第一个csv输出的列是“pk”，“model”，“fields”。“pk”和“model”的值很容易获得，但因为“fields”列包含一个字典，它应该是它自己的csv，因为“codename”似乎是主键，你可以使用作为“fields”的输入来完成第一个csv。第二个csv包含来自“fields”列的字典，以codename作为主键，可用于将两个csv绑定在一起。

这是一个解决方案，为您的json文件转换嵌套字典2 csv。

import csv
import json

def readAndWrite(inputFileName, primaryKey=""):
    input = open(inputFileName+".json")
    data = json.load(input)
    input.close()

    header = set()

    if primaryKey != "":
        outputFileName = inputFileName+"-"+primaryKey
        if inputFileName == "data":
            for i in data:
                for j in i["fields"].keys():
                    if j not in header:
                        header.add(j)
    else:
        outputFileName = inputFileName
        for i in data:
            for j in i.keys():
                if j not in header:
                    header.add(j)

    with open(outputFileName+".csv", 'wb') as output_file:
        fieldnames = list(header)
        writer = csv.DictWriter(output_file, fieldnames, delimiter=',', quotechar='"')
        writer.writeheader()
        for x in data:
            row_value = {}
            if primaryKey == "":
                for y in x.keys():
                    yValue = x.get(y)
                    if type(yValue) == int or type(yValue) == bool or type(yValue) == float or type(yValue) == list:
                        row_value[y] = str(yValue).encode('utf8')
                    elif type(yValue) != dict:
                        row_value[y] = yValue.encode('utf8')
                    else:
                        if inputFileName == "data":
                            row_value[y] = yValue["codename"].encode('utf8')
                            readAndWrite(inputFileName, primaryKey="codename")
                writer.writerow(row_value)
            elif primaryKey == "codename":
                for y in x["fields"].keys():
                    yValue = x["fields"].get(y)
                    if type(yValue) == int or type(yValue) == bool or type(yValue) == float or type(yValue) == list:
                        row_value[y] = str(yValue).encode('utf8')
                    elif type(yValue) != dict:
                        row_value[y] = yValue.encode('utf8')
                writer.writerow(row_value)

readAndWrite("data")

我假设您的JSON文件将解码为字典列表。首先，我们需要一个将JSON对象扁平化的函数:

def flattenjson(b, delim):
    val = {}
    for i in b.keys():
        if isinstance(b[i], dict):
            get = flattenjson(b[i], delim)
            for j in get.keys():
                val[i + delim + j] = get[j]
        else:
            val[i] = b[i]
            
    return val

在JSON对象上运行这段代码的结果:

flattenjson({
    "pk": 22, 
    "model": "auth.permission", 
    "fields": {
      "codename": "add_message", 
      "name": "Can add message", 
      "content_type": 8
    }
  }, "__")

is

{
    "pk": 22, 
    "model": "auth.permission", 
    "fields__codename": "add_message", 
    "fields__name": "Can add message", 
    "fields__content_type": 8
}

对JSON对象输入数组中的每个dict应用此函数后:

input = map(lambda x: flattenjson( x, "__" ), input)

并查找相关的列名:

columns = [x for row in input for x in row.keys()]
columns = list(set(columns))

在CSV模块中运行这个并不难:

with open(fname, 'wb') as out_file:
    csv_w = csv.writer(out_file)
    csv_w.writerow(columns)

    for i_r in input:
        csv_w.writerow(map(lambda x: i_r.get(x, ""), columns))

使用csv.DictWriter()很容易，详细的实现可以像这样:

def read_json(filename):
    return json.loads(open(filename).read())
def write_csv(data,filename):
    with open(filename, 'w+') as outf:
        writer = csv.DictWriter(outf, data[0].keys())
        writer.writeheader()
        for row in data:
            writer.writerow(row)
# implement
write_csv(read_json('test.json'), 'output.csv')

注意，这假设所有JSON对象都具有相同的字段。

这是一份可能对你有帮助的参考资料。

使用pandas中的json_normalize:

在名为test.json的文件中使用来自OP的示例数据。 这里使用了Encoding ='utf-8'，但在其他情况下可能不需要。 下面的代码利用了pathlib库。 .open是pathlib的一个方法。 也适用于非windows路径。 使用pandas.to_csv(…)将数据保存为csv文件。

import pandas as pd
# As of Pandas 1.01, json_normalize as pandas.io.json.json_normalize is deprecated and is now exposed in the top-level namespace.
# from pandas.io.json import json_normalize
from pathlib import Path
import json

# set path to file
p = Path(r'c:\some_path_to_file\test.json')

# read json
with p.open('r', encoding='utf-8') as f:
    data = json.loads(f.read())

# create dataframe
df = pd.json_normalize(data)

# dataframe view
 pk            model  fields.codename           fields.name  fields.content_type
 22  auth.permission     add_logentry     Can add log entry                    8
 23  auth.permission  change_logentry  Can change log entry                    8
 24  auth.permission  delete_logentry  Can delete log entry                    8
  4  auth.permission        add_group         Can add group                    2
 10  auth.permission      add_message       Can add message                    4

# save to csv
df.to_csv('test.csv', index=False, encoding='utf-8')

CSV输出:

pk,model,fields.codename,fields.name,fields.content_type
22,auth.permission,add_logentry,Can add log entry,8
23,auth.permission,change_logentry,Can change log entry,8
24,auth.permission,delete_logentry,Can delete log entry,8
4,auth.permission,add_group,Can add group,2
10,auth.permission,add_message,Can add message,4
