How to overcome “datetime.datetime not JSON serializable”?

Question

I have a basic dict as follows:

sample = {}
sample[\'title\'] = \"String\"
sample[\'somedate\'] = somedatetimehere
         


        

Answer 1

The simplest way to do this is to change the part of the dict that is in datetime format to isoformat. That value will effectively be a string in isoformat which json is ok with.

v_dict = version.dict()
v_dict['created_at'] = v_dict['created_at'].isoformat()
