JSON to model a class using Django

Question

I\'m trying to get a JSON object like:

{
    \"username\": \"clelio\",
    \"name\": \"Clelio de Paula\",
}

and transform it in:

Answer 1

You probably want to look at Django's (de)serialization framework. Given JSON like:

[
  {
    "model": "myapp.user",
    "pk": "89900",
    "fields": {
      "name": "Clelio de Paula"
    }
  }
]

you can save it like this:

from django.core import serializers
for deserialized_object in serializers.deserialize("json", data):
    deserialized_object.save()

Note that I believe you have to use the Django serialization format to use this method, so you might have to adjust your JSON accordingly.

Answer 2

This is simply achieved as follows:

data = {
   "username": "stackExchange",
   "name": "stack overflow"
}

for obj in serializers.deserialize("json", data):
    do_something_with(obj)

Check out django docs for details

Answer 3

I just realized that

{
    "username": "clelio",
    "name": "Clelio de Paula",
 }

is a dict() object.

So, this is easiest than I thought.

What I need to solve is just

def jsonToClass(self, aux):

    self.name = aux['name']
    self.username = aux['username']

that's it.
