Serializing a namedtuple to json results in only the valu

Answer 1

It recursively converts the namedTuple data to json.

print(m1)
## Message(id=2, agent=Agent(id=1, first_name='asd', last_name='asd', mail='2@mai.com'), customer=Customer(id=1, first_name='asd', last_name='asd', mail='2@mai.com', phone_number=123123), type='image', content='text', media_url='h.com', la=123123, ls=4512313)

def reqursive_to_json(obj):
    _json = {}

    if isinstance(obj, tuple):
        datas = obj._asdict()
        for data in datas:
            if isinstance(datas[data], tuple):
                _json[data] = (reqursive_to_json(datas[data]))
            else:
                 print(datas[data])
                _json[data] = (datas[data])
    return _json

data = reqursive_to_json(m1)
print(data)
{'agent': {'first_name': 'asd',
'last_name': 'asd',
'mail': '2@mai.com',
'id': 1},
'content': 'text',
'customer': {'first_name': 'asd',
