我正在使用python 3.4并试图从URL中解析看似有效的JSON输出。例如: http://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/questions?order=desc&sort=activity&site=stackoverflow
这是我的代码看起来像
import json
from urllib.request import urlopen
def jsonify(url):
response = urlopen(url).read().decode('utf8')
repo = json.loads(response)
return repo
url = jsonify('http://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/questions?order=desc&sort=activity&site=stackoverflow');
但是,我收到UnicodeDecodeError utf-8 codec can't decode byte 0x8b in position 1; invalid start byte
该脚本适用于任何其他API,例如github和许多其他API,但不适用于stackexchange api

使用gzip
压缩响应,您必须将其解压缩。
$ curl -v http://api.stackexchange.com/2.2/questions\?order\=desc\&sort\=activity\&site\=stackoverflow
* Trying 198.252.206.16...
* TCP_NODELAY set
* Connected to api.stackexchange.com (198.252.206.16) port 80 (#0)

减压示例:
import gzip
def jsonify(url):
response = urlopen(url).read()
tmp = gzip.decompress(response).decode('utf-8')
repo = json.loads(tmp)
return repo
