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

当前回答

Jsonweb似乎是我的最佳解决方案。参见http://www.jsonweb.info/en/latest/

from jsonweb.encode import to_object, dumper

@to_object()
class DataModel(object):
  def __init__(self, id, value):
   self.id = id
   self.value = value

>>> data = DataModel(5, "foo")
>>> dumper(data)
'{"__type__": "DataModel", "id": 5, "value": "foo"}'

其他回答

下面是一个简单功能的简单解决方案:

.toJSON()方法

实现一个序列化器方法,而不是一个JSON可序列化类:

import json

class Object:
    def toJSON(self):
        return json.dumps(self, default=lambda o: o.__dict__, 
            sort_keys=True, indent=4)

所以你只需调用它来序列化:

me = Object()
me.name = "Onur"
me.age = 35
me.dog = Object()
me.dog.name = "Apollo"

print(me.toJSON())

将输出:

{
    "age": 35,
    "dog": {
        "name": "Apollo"
    },
    "name": "Onur"
}

基于Quinten Cabo的回答:

def sterilize(obj):
    """Make an object more ameniable to dumping as json
    """
    if type(obj) in (str, float, int, bool, type(None)):
        return obj
    elif isinstance(obj, dict):
        return {k: sterilize(v) for k, v in obj.items()}
    list_ret = []
    dict_ret = {}
    for a in dir(obj):
        if a == '__iter__' and callable(obj.__iter__):
            list_ret.extend([sterilize(v) for v in obj])
        elif a == '__dict__':
            dict_ret.update({k: sterilize(v) for k, v in obj.__dict__.items() if k not in ['__module__', '__dict__', '__weakref__', '__doc__']})
        elif a not in ['__doc__', '__module__']:
            aval = getattr(obj, a)
            if type(aval) in (str, float, int, bool, type(None)):
                dict_ret[a] = aval
            elif a != '__class__' and a != '__objclass__' and isinstance(aval, type):
                dict_ret[a] = sterilize(aval)
    if len(list_ret) == 0:
        if len(dict_ret) == 0:
            return repr(obj)
        return dict_ret
    else:
        if len(dict_ret) == 0:
            return list_ret
    return (list_ret, dict_ret)

区别在于

Works for any iterable instead of just list and tuple (it works for NumPy arrays, etc.) Works for dynamic types (ones that contain a __dict__). Includes native types float and None so they don't get converted to string. Classes that have __dict__ and members will mostly work (if the __dict__ and member names collide, you will only get one - likely the member) Classes that are lists and have members will look like a tuple of the list and a dictionary Python3 (that isinstance() call may be the only thing that needs changing)

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。

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"}'

加拉科给出了一个非常简洁的答案。我需要修复一些小的东西,但这是有效的:

Code

# Your custom class
class MyCustom(object):
    def __json__(self):
        return {
            'a': self.a,
            'b': self.b,
            '__python__': 'mymodule.submodule:MyCustom.from_json',
        }

    to_json = __json__  # supported by simplejson

    @classmethod
    def from_json(cls, json):
        obj = cls()
        obj.a = json['a']
        obj.b = json['b']
        return obj

# Dumping and loading
import simplejson

obj = MyCustom()
obj.a = 3
obj.b = 4

json = simplejson.dumps(obj, for_json=True)

# Two-step loading
obj2_dict = simplejson.loads(json)
obj2 = MyCustom.from_json(obj2_dict)

# Make sure we have the correct thing
assert isinstance(obj2, MyCustom)
assert obj2.__dict__ == obj.__dict__

注意,加载需要两个步骤。现在是__python__属性 未使用。

这种情况有多普遍?

使用AlJohri的方法,我检查了流行的方法:
