Need help in converting the key value pairs of JSON data into data types.

[chinna]

Hi All,

I am actually working on a use case where I have to convert the JSON data into a dictionary and from that  I will have to replace all the keys and values to the data types. 
For example:

input_dict  = {'segment_idenifier': 'Segment 2', 'exposed_pipe_outside_diam': 4, 'exposed_pipe_length': 2}

output_dict = {string : string, string : integer, string : integer } 

in some cases the dictionary will have nested dictionaries or lists as well. If it has, we will have to replace the key-values inside those nested objects.

I am including the json file here.

I was struck by this a while ago. Please help me to resolve this.

Regards,
Prem.

The data type is returned as a string with the builtin type() function.

The JSON library included with the Python standard supports nested
objects (converting them into Python dictionaries) just fine, so that
shouldn't be an issue:

What have you done so far and where exactly are you facing issues?

Also, how is this related to Django?
