A DynamoDB json util from and to python objects

Project description

# DynamoDB Json
DynamoDB json util to load and dump strings of Dynamodb json format to python object and vise-versa

# Install
just use pip:
```
pip install dynamodb-json
```
# Use

The dynamodb-json util works the same as json loads and dumps functions:
```python
import time
import uuid
from datetime import datetime
from decimal import Decimal

from dynamodb_json import json_util as json

json_ = {"MyString": "a",
"num": 4,
"MyBool": False,
"my_dict": {"my_date": datetime.utcnow()},
"MyNone": None,
"MyZero": 0,
"myDecimal": Decimal("19.2"), # converts Decimal to float, load it as float
"myLong": long(1938475658493),
"MyNestedDict": {
"my_other_nested": {
"name": "John",
"surname": "Lennon",
"MyOtherNone": None,
"floaty": float(29.4),
"myList": [1, 3, 4, 5, 6, "This Is Sparta!"],
"mySet": {1, 3, 4, 5, 6}, # converts set to list, returns as list
"myUUID": uuid.uuid4(), # converts uuid to string, loads it as string
"time": time.time() # converts it to seconds python float, loads it as float
}
}
}

dynamodb_json = json.dumps(json_)

# {
# "my_dict": {"M": {"my_date": {"S": "2017-04-22T14:41:35.780000"}}},
# "MyBool": {"BOOL": false}, "MyNone": {"NULL": true},
# "MyNestedDict": {
# "M": {"my_other_nested": {
# "M": {"myUUID": {"S": "2f4ad21e098f49b18e22ad209779048b"},
# "surname": {"S": "Lennon"}, "name": {"S": "John"},
# "mySet": {"L": [{"N": "1"}, {"N": "3"}, {"N": "4"}, {"N": "5"}, {"N": "6"}]},
# "floaty": {"N": "29.4"}, "time": {"N": "1492872095.78"},
# "myList": {"L": [{"N": "1"}, {"N": "3"}, {"N": "4"}, {"N": "5"}, {"N": "6"}, {"S": "This Is Sparta!"}]},
# "MyOtherNone": {"NULL": true}}
# }
# }
# },
# "myDecimal": {"N": "19.2"}, "num": {"N": "4"},
# "MyString": {"S": "a"},
# "myLong": {"N": "1938475658493"},
# "MyZero": {"N": "0"}
# }


json.loads(dynamodb_json)
