I would like to convert the long-string to an array to access detail inside. In my case, the string is like below
'[{"timestamp": 1567814400033, "fair_value": 0.01641267}, {"timestamp": 1567814400141, "fair_value": 0.01641273}]'
Desired result would be single array where contain dicts inside like this
[{"timestamp": 1567814400033, "fair_value": 0.01641267}, {"timestamp": 1567814400141, "fair_value": 0.01641273}]
Thank for your help!
Try this:
import json
array = '[{"timestamp": 1567814400033, "fair_value": 0.01641267},
{"timestamp": 1567814400141, "fair_value": 0.01641273}]'
data = json.loads(array)
print (data)
Output:
You would be needing to import literal_eval from ast module of python, it is a standard package installed in python which stands for Abstract Syntax Trees, more info here : https://docs.python.org/2/library/ast.html
Your code will look something like this:
from ast import literal_eval
your_variable = literal_eval('[{"timestamp": 1567814400033, "fair_value": 0.01641267}, {"timestamp": 1567814400141, "fair_value": 0.01641273}]')
I hope this helps!
I have solve this case by myself by using ast.literal_eval() lib
Use the python json library. You can use it to parse your strings to json and also stringfy your dictionary or arrays.
import json
# Convert string to python object
data = json.loads(<JSON_STRING>)
# Stringfy python dictionary or array
string_data = json.dumps(<PYTHON_OBJECT>)
