import json
string = "'massage':'testing'"
json.loads(string)
But I get this error
Traceback (most recent call last):

CodePudding user response:
That is not valid JSON. This works:
import json
string = '{"message": "testing"}'
print(json.loads(string))
Not sure what this has to do with converting lists to dictionaries though.
CodePudding user response:
according to the document
If the data being deserialized is not a valid JSON document, a
JSONDecodeError will be raised.
you have 2 mistake
- you miss the brackets in your string
- JSON specification - RFC7159 states that a string begins and ends with quotation mark.
That mean single quoute
'
has no semantic meaning in JSON and is allowed only inside a string.
result:
import json
string = '{"massage":"testing"}'
json.loads(string)
