How to add string in specific positions in geojson object

i have the below posted geojson mentioned in geojson_1 section below. i want to add to it "geometry":{ and }, so that to appear as follows
{"geometry":{"type":"Polygon","coordinates":[[[1216374.67364018,6563498.44078949],[1216387.86261675,6563523.87797899],[1216397.66970116,6563548.2905649],[1216424.17569103,6563588.32082324],[1216458.19258303,6563622.16452455],[1216498.32084288,6563648.42909789],[1216542.90943577,6563666.03380959],[1216590.12376481,6563674.25425166],[1216638.02117068,6563672.7521636],[1216684.63088244,6563661.58935797],[1216728.03512655,6563641.225175],[1216752.29181681,6563626.67066235],[1216787.17700448,6563601.12371718],[1216816.83970763,6563569.63465531],[1216831.39332728,6563551.03748989],[1216838.2508451,6563541.8226918],[1216897.47283376,6563458.0765492],[1216918.74007329,6563421.44644481],[1216933.156564,6563381.60258193],[1216940.26085904,6563339.82061228],[1216939.82562707,6563297.43819918],[1216931.86491641,6563255.81218836],[1216907.60647856,6563170.91644364],[1216887.20280767,6563121.46139137],[1216856.24799209,6563077.86160203],[1216821.48046704,6563039.0529759],[1216799.23490474,6563017.28929875],[1216753.95673639,6562978.48086898],[1216737.29066155,6562965.4435638],[1216673.22488836,6562919.79826372],[1216644.73178636,6562899.22061724],[1216601.13622245,6562874.31962206],[1216562.32695185,6562857.3410734],[1216556.56069412,6562854.90900462],[1216549.97837146,6562852.23502385],[1216545.77480552,6562849.58841453],[1216504.75306873,6562829.03095075],[1216487.0229317,6562822.21187019],[1216482.65368148,6562820.3796627],[1216478.79578194,6562814.49158384],[1216462.95127963,6562793.04723497],[1216450.44559886,6562777.97698661],[1216448.65520854,6562774.19751598],[1216429.39331353,6562740.84427663],[1216404.99213055,6562711.06486155],[1216382.3528849,6562687.61801865],[1216357.97638417,6562665.64947943],[1216339.38004804,6562651.09634054],[1216299.24217837,6562625.743469],[1216254.86196793,6562608.94292463],[1216208.02902037,6562601.37212065],[1216160.63182011,6562603.33631786],[1216114.58159971,6562614.75632195],[1216071.73529105,6562635.17167463],[1216033.82066317,6562663.75921023],[1216002.36666225,6562699.36623124],[1215978.64176027,6562740.55696848],[1215963.60279766,6562785.67045603],[1215957.85638339,6562832.88749107],[1215961.63441126,6562880.30398198],[1215963.25125904,6562889.19806131],[1215964.03213898,6562893.28933659],[1215968.1319511,6562913.79137984],[1215972.03222389,6562937.19708669],[1215977.28745991,6563016.79645952],[1215971.45390521,6563048.0427099],[1215969.39172682,6563061.09023781],[1215963.73069651,6563104.75131293],[1215962.06592533,6563123.22251112],[1215960.00953034,6563163.6421848],[1215954.35640427,6563213.80082903],[1215954.63230125,6563269.34572034],[1215960.29082704,6563315.43307246],[1215970.70253119,6563361.57391952],[1215982.82982632,6563397.95907391],[1216001.20120538,6563439.38870108],[1216027.10825421,6563476.54992802],[1216059.60193364,6563508.08124916],[1216097.4918555,6563532.82739871],[1216139.38989254,6563549.8816932],[1216183.76104002,6563558.61926572],[1216228.97966418,6563558.71997125],[1216273.38907516,6563550.18012236],[1216287.1346647,6563546.13717455],[1216332.92682121,6563527.24586381],[1216373.78586258,6563499.1986745],[1216374.67364018,6563498.44078949]]]}}
to simpify it even more, i want to add "geometry":{ right after the the first curly bracket, and the } at the very end
i attmepted the following:
asString = asString[:2] + "geometry:" + asString[2:]
asString = asString[:len(asString)] + "}" + asString[len(asString):]
but i am not getting the expected results

I'm going to assume that geojson_1 is available as a string in which case:
import json
output = {'geometry': json.loads(geojson_1)}
...will give you a dictionary with the structure you need.

It looks like plain json data, or a string representation of a dict (they wouldn't be any different in this case), did you consider wrapping the returned data in a new dict rather than manipulating it as a string?
import json
# Assume this returns the geojson as text
geojson = json.loads(get_geojson())
geojson = {"geometry": geojson}
print(json.dumps(geojson))

I get the expected result using the following:
'{"geometry":' + d + "}"
It adds the string {"geometry": to the string d and at the end }.
The variable dis:
d = '{"type":"Polygon","co (rest of json) ,6563498.44078949]]]}'
Or you can use the json library for this:
import json
data = json.loads(d) # note d is the same string as above, this can also be from a file or read file using json.load(FILE)
# Create your new object:
result = {'geometry': data}
# print you new json:
print( json.dumps(result, indent=2))
edit:
'"geometry":{' + d + "}"
Note that you get a string starting with geometry and a { and directly another { from you input json. This is not a correct dictionary nor a proper json format.
Result:
'"geometry":{{"type":"Polygon", ... ,6563498.44078949]]]}}'
(the dots are just the rest of your original json.

How to separate key-values per row from a JSON formatted list?

I've been trying to get a more readable output from a JSON list. I have not yet been successful. I hard-coded some data to see if I can get it as I want. This is what I did:
import json
jsonData = {
"person": {"FirstName": "Kwin", "LastName": "Harley", "Age": 25},
"DoB": {"DateOfBirth": "19/12/1996", "Birthplace": "Belgium"},
"insurer":{"id":"12345","contractNumber":"98765432",
"valid_from":"2020-10-01T00:00:00.000Z","valid_until":"2021-01-30T00:00:00.000Z",
"representativeID":"135792468",
"representativeEmail":"sample#test.com"}
}
jsonString = json.dumps(jsonData, sort_keys=False, indent=4)
print(jsonString)
Output 1
As you can see, the data is structured nicely.
Now, when I use my main code, the output looks like this:
Output 2
It just returns the data in 1 row :(
Is there a way to fix that? This is the code I have for that:
qrType = qr.type
qrData = json.dumps(qr.data.decode('utf-8'),sort_keys=True)
# print the QR type and data to the terminal
print("[INFORMATION] Found {} barcode:\n{}".format(qrType, qrData))

I don't think you're passing a dict to json.dumps() at all. qr.data is clearly a string, as you .decode() it. Presumably it's a json string, so you want to do something like this:
formatted_data = json.dumps(json.load(qr.data.decode()), indent=2)
print(formatted_data)

Python JSON encoding invalid json format

i've stucked, i have a json with symbols like ' in values and syntax with ' and "
Example mix double qoute and single qoutelink
json ={
'key': "val_'_ue",
'secondkey': 'value'
}
With json loads and json dumps i got a str type not a dict to iterate, any ideas how i get it fixed?
print(postParams)# = {'csrf-token': "TOKEN_INCLUDES_'_'_symbols", 'param2': 'params2value'}
jsn_dict2 = json.loads(json.dumps(postParams))
print(type(jsn_dict2)) # ERROR HERE why str and not dict
for key, val in jsn_dict2.items():
print("key="+str(key))

you dont need to dumps() an already string json data:
jsn_dict = json.loads(json.dumps(res))
should be :
jsn_dict = json.loads(res)
UPDATE
according to comments the data is looks like so:
postParams = "{'csrf-token': \"TOKEN_INCLUDES_'_'_symbols\", 'add-to-your-blog-submit-button': 'add-to-your-blog-submit-button'}"
so i found an library that can help damaged json string like this one:
first run :
pip install demjson
then this code can help you:
from demjson import decode
data = decode(postParams)
data
>>> {'csrf-token': "TOKEN_INCLUDES_'_'_symbols",
'add-to-your-blog-submit-button': 'add-to-your-blog-submit-button'}

In your json u have missed the "," comma separation between two keys. The actual structure of the JSON is
json_new ={
'key': "val_'_ue",
'secondkey': 'value'
}
use
json_actual=json.dumps(json_new)
to read,
json_read=json.loads(json_actual)

Convert a string with the name of a variable to a dictionary

I have a string which is little complex in that, it has some objects embedded as values. I need to convert them to proper dict or json.
foo = '{"Source": "my source", "Input": {"User_id": 18, "some_object": this_is_a_variable_actually}}'
Notice that the last key some_object has a value which is neither a string nor an int. Hence when I do a json.loads or ast.literal_eval, I am getting malformed string errors, and so Converting a String to Dictionary doesn't work.
I have no control over the source of the string.
Is it possible to convert such strings to dictionary
The result I need is a dict like this
dict = {
"Source" : "Good",
"object1": variable1,
"object2": variable2
}
The thing here is I wouldn't know what is variable1 or 2. There is no pattern here.
One point I want to mention here is that, If I can make the variables as just plain strings, that is also fine
For example,
dict = {
"Source" : "Good",
"object1": "variable1",
"object2": "variable2"
}
This will be good for my purpose. Thanks for all the answers.

It's a bit of a kludge using the demjson module which allows you to parse most of a somewhat non-confirming JSON syntax string and lists the errors... You can then use that to replace the invalid tokens found and put quotes around it just so it parses correctly, eg:
import demjson
import re
foo = '{"Source": "my source", "Input": {"User_id": 18, "some_object": this_is_a_variable_actually}}'
def f(json_str):
res = demjson.decode(json_str, strict=False, return_errors=True)
if not res.errors:
return res
for err in res.errors:
var = err.args[1]
json_str = re.sub(r'\b{}\b'.format(var), '"{}"'.format(var), json_str)
return demjson.decode(json_str, strict=False)
res = f(foo)
Gives you:
{'Input': {'User_id': 18, 'some_object': 'this_is_a_variable_actually'}, 'Source': 'my source'}
Note that while this should work in the example data presented, your mileage may vary if there's other nuisances in your input that require further munging.

variable_one=OrderedDict([('xxx', [['xxx_a', 'xxx_b'],['xx_c', 'xx_d']]),('yyy', [['yyy_a', 'yyy_b'],['yy_c', 'yy_d']]))])
variable_two=OrderedDict([('xxx', [['xxx_a', 'xxx_b'],['xx_c', 'xx_d']]),('yyy', [['yyy_a', 'yyy_b'],['yy_c', 'yy_d']]))])
how will I retrieve values in python as:
xxx
xxx_a -> xxx_b
xxx_c -> xxx_d

import re
from ast import literal_eval
from collections import OrderedDict
# This string is slightly different from your sample which had an extra bracket
line = "variable_one=OrderedDict([('xxx', [['xxx_a', 'xxx_b'],['xx_c', 'xx_d']]),('yyy', [['yyy_a', 'yyy_b'],['yy_c', 'yy_d']])])"
match = re.match(r'(\w+)\s*=\s*OrderedDict\((.+)\)\s*$', line)
variable, data = match.groups()
# This allows safe evaluation: data can only be a basic data structure
data = literal_eval(data)
data = [(key, OrderedDict(val)) for key, val in data]
data = OrderedDict(data)
Verification that it works:
print variable
import json
print json.dumps(data, indent=4)
Output:
variable_one
{
"xxx": {
"xxx_a": "xxx_b",
"xx_c": "xx_d"
},
"yyy": {
"yyy_a": "yyy_b",
"yy_c": "yy_d"
}
}
Having said all that, your request is very odd. If you can control the source of the data, use a real serialisation format that supports order (so not JSON). Don't output Python code.
