How to i extract a particular parameter and it's data from multiple text files?-CodePudding

Suppose i have multiple files such as file1 file2 and file3 and consists of following data:

file1: {"status":"succes","message":"User Found","error_code":"0","data":{"phone":0,"name":"Sanju Mehra","gender":"","tob":"","dob":"","pob":"","email":"[email protected]"}

file2: {"status":"succes","message":"User Found","error_code":"0","data":{"phone":0,"name":"Anil Kumar","gender":"","tob":"","dob":"","pob":"","email":"[email protected]"}

file3: {"status":"succes","message":"User Found","error_code":"0","data":{"phone":89XXXXXXXX,"name":"Ashish Chauhan","gender":"male","tob":"12:30","dob":"10/18/94","pob":"ambala, haryana","email":"[email protected]"}

I'd like to extract name and phone number from these multipe file where i actually want to extract the data of a phone number and the data entered on name parameter.

Could you please tell me the possible ways with which i could do that?

The data in a file is looking like a dictionary format. Then the answer is as follows

import os,sys        

ws=r"C:\Users\xx\Desktop\dd"
for root,dirs,files in os.walk(ws):
    for file1 in files:
        file_path=os.path.join(root,file1)

        file2 = open(file_path, "r", encoding="utf8") 

        data_string=file2.read()
        #Then the phone number is    
        phone_number=data_string['data']['phone']    
        #    Then the name is
        name=data_string['data']['name']    
        #like above you can access all keys and value from dictionary
