通过url获取json数据并在python中使用(simplejson)

标签: python json urllib2 simplejson

我想这必须有一个简单的答案,但我正在努力:我想要一个url(输出json)并在python中的可用字典中获取数据。我陷入了最后一步。

>>> import urllib2
>>> import simplejson
>>> req = urllib2.Request("http://vimeo.com/api/v2/video/38356.json", None, {'user-agent':'syncstream/vimeo'})
>>> opener = urllib2.build_opener()
>>> f = opener.open(req)
>>> f.read()             # this works

我出错的任何想法?

尝试

f = opener.open(req)
simplejson.load(f)

首先不运行f.read()。当你运行f.read()时,文件句柄的内容会被扯掉,所以当你的电话simplejson.load(f)

时,什么都没有了

答案 1 :(得分:10)

第一行读取整个文件。然后第二行尝试从文件中读取更多内容,但没有任何内容:

>>> f.read()             # this works
blah blah blah
>>> simplejson.load(f)

要么省略f.read()行,要么保存read值,并在加载中使用它:

json = f.read()
simplejson.loads(json)

答案 2 :(得分:-7)

有一个更简单的方法 - 你根本不需要simplejson。只要将true / false / null设置为正确的值,Python就可以使用eval语句将json解析为dict / array。

# fetch the url
url = "https://api.twitter.com/1/users/lookup.json?user_id=6253282,18949452"
json = urllib2.urlopen(url).read()

# convert to a native python object
(true,false,null) = (True,False,None)
profiles = eval(json)
