我有一个JSON文件,我想转换为CSV文件。我如何用Python做到这一点?

我试着:

import json
import csv

f = open('data.json')
data = json.load(f)
f.close()

f = open('data.csv')
csv_file = csv.writer(f)
for item in data:
    csv_file.writerow(item)

f.close()

然而,这并没有起作用。我正在使用Django和我收到的错误是:

`file' object has no attribute 'writerow'`

然后我尝试了以下方法:

import json
import csv

f = open('data.json')
data = json.load(f)
f.close()

f = open('data.csv')
csv_file = csv.writer(f)
for item in data:
    f.writerow(item)  # ← changed

f.close()

然后得到错误:

`sequence expected`

样本json文件:

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

当前回答

首先,JSON包含嵌套对象,因此通常不能直接转换为CSV。你需要把它改成这样:

{
    "pk": 22,
    "model": "auth.permission",
    "codename": "add_logentry",
    "content_type": 8,
    "name": "Can add log entry"
},
......]

下面是我的代码来生成CSV:

import csv
import json

x = """[
    {
        "pk": 22,
        "model": "auth.permission",
        "fields": {
            "codename": "add_logentry",
            "name": "Can add log entry",
            "content_type": 8
        }
    },
    {
        "pk": 23,
        "model": "auth.permission",
        "fields": {
            "codename": "change_logentry",
            "name": "Can change log entry",
            "content_type": 8
        }
    },
    {
        "pk": 24,
        "model": "auth.permission",
        "fields": {
            "codename": "delete_logentry",
            "name": "Can delete log entry",
            "content_type": 8
        }
    }
]"""

x = json.loads(x)

f = csv.writer(open("test.csv", "wb+"))

# Write CSV Header, If you dont need that, remove this line
f.writerow(["pk", "model", "codename", "name", "content_type"])

for x in x:
    f.writerow([x["pk"],
                x["model"],
                x["fields"]["codename"],
                x["fields"]["name"],
                x["fields"]["content_type"]])

你会得到如下输出:

pk,model,codename,name,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

其他回答

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")

我对丹提出的解决方案感到困惑,但这对我来说很管用:

import json
import csv 

f = open('test.json')
data = json.load(f)
f.close()

f=csv.writer(open('test.csv','wb+'))

for item in data:
  f.writerow([item['pk'], item['model']] + item['fields'].values())

“测试的地方。Json”包含以下内容:

[ 
{"pk": 22, "model": "auth.permission", "fields": 
  {"codename": "add_logentry", "name": "Can add log entry", "content_type": 8 } }, 
{"pk": 23, "model": "auth.permission", "fields": 
  {"codename": "change_logentry", "name": "Can change log entry", "content_type": 8 } }, {"pk": 24, "model": "auth.permission", "fields": 
  {"codename": "delete_logentry", "name": "Can delete log entry", "content_type": 8 } }
]

使用pandas库,这就像使用两个命令一样简单!

df = pd.read_json()

read_json将JSON字符串转换为pandas对象(序列或数据帧)。然后:

df.to_csv()

它既可以返回字符串,也可以直接写入csv文件。请参阅to_csv的文档。

根据之前的冗长回答,我们都应该感谢熊猫提供的这条捷径。

关于非结构化JSON,请参阅这个答案。

编辑: 有人问我一个最小的例子:

import pandas as pd

with open('jsonfile.json', encoding='utf-8') as inputfile:
    df = pd.read_json(inputfile)

df.to_csv('csvfile.csv', encoding='utf-8', index=False)

这段代码应该适用于您,假设您的JSON数据在一个名为data. JSON的文件中。

import json
import csv

with open("data.json") as file:
    data = json.load(file)

with open("data.csv", "w") as file:
    csv_file = csv.writer(file)
    for item in data:
        fields = list(item['fields'].values())
        csv_file.writerow([item['pk'], item['model']] + fields)

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:
