JSON to list Python

JSON stands for JavaScript Object Notation. It means that a script [executable] file which is made of text in a programming language, is used to store and transfer the data. Python supports JSON through a built-in package called json. To use this feature, we import the json package in Python script. The text in JSON is done through quoted-string which contains value in key-value mapping within { }. It is similar to the dictionary in Python.

Function Used:

json.load[]: json.loads[] function is present in python built-in json module. This function is used to parse the JSON string.

Syntax: json.load[file_name]

Parameter: It takes JSON file as the parameter.

Return type: It returns the python dictionary object.

Example 1: Lets suppose the JSON file looks like this:

We want to convert the content of this file to Python dictionary. Below is the implementation.

# Python program to demonstrate

# Conversion of JSON data to

# dictionary

# importing the module

import json

# Opening JSON file

with open['data.json'] as json_file:

data = json.load[json_file]

# Print the type of data variable

print["Type:", type[data]]

# Print the data of dictionary

print["\nPeople1:", data['people1']]

print["\nPeople2:", data['people2']]

Output :

Example 2: Reading nested data
In the above JSON file, there is a nested dictionary in the first key people1. Below is the implementation of reading nested data.

# Python program to demonstrate

# Conversion of JSON data to

# dictionary

# importing the module

import json

# Opening JSON file

with open['data.json'] as json_file:

data = json.load[json_file]

# for reading nested data [0] represents

# the index value of the list

print[data['people1'][0]]

# for printing the key-value pair of

# nested dictionary for looop can be used

print["\nPrinting nested dicitonary as a key-value pair\n"]

for i in data['people1']:

print["Name:", i['name']]

print["Website:", i['website']]

print["From:", i['from']]

print[]
