Creating a json array in python from bunch of strings-CodePudding

In this script I'm parsing an html page using bs4

with urlopen('https://ahmia.fi/search/?q='   searchString) as webpage:
    rawResaults = webpage.read().decode()

# Parsing the webpage to html using BeautifulSoup
parsed_html = BeautifulSoup(rawResaults, features="lxml")

then looping through each <li> element to get the value of element that is located inside that list item

for res in parsed_html.body.find_all_next('li', attrs={'class': 'result'}):
    i = i   1

    titel = str(res.find('a').text)
    description = str(res.find('p').text)
    description = description.strip()
    description = description.replace("<p>","")
    description = description.replace("<br>","")
    link = str(res.find('cite').text)
    lastCheckd = str(res.find('span').text)

What I want to do is combine all these strings into a JSON array which then will be sent to the frontend that will map through the JSON to create new components 'link' that take the props (titel,decription,link,lastChecked)

{/* {link ? (
            link.map((lnk) => (
              <Links
              
                key={lnk._id}
                titel={lnk.titel}
                link={lnk.link}
                description={lnk.description}
                status={lnk.status}
              />
            ))
          ) : (
            <Nolink />
          )} */}

Here is what I've tried so far (I can't map through the result )

#How I declared 'dictz' 
 dictz = {}
    #this part is inside the loop
    dictz["link" str(i)]={
        "titel": titel.strip(),
        "description": (description[:75]   '..') if len(description) > 75 else description ,
        "link": link.strip(),
        "lastCheckd": lastCheckd.strip(),
        "status": "unknown"
        }
   

# outside the loop
serialized_json = json.dumps(dictz)

An example result :

{
  "link1": {
    "titel": "hello, anon.",
    "description": "hello, anon - Uncensored Onion ",
    "link": "LINK",
    "lastCheckd": "1, 3 ago",
    "status": "unknown"
  },
  "link2": {
    "titel": "Hello",
    "description": "No description provided",
    "link": "LINK",
    "lastCheckd": "2, 1 ago",
    "status": "unknown"
  }
}

CodePudding user response：

You should be creating a list of dictionaries, not a dictionary. Instead of putting linkN in the dictionary keys, it should be in the _id key of the nested dictionaries.

dictz = []
...
dictz.append({
        "_id": "link" str(i),
        "titel": titel.strip(),
        "description": (description[:75]   '..') if len(description) > 75 else description ,
        "link": link.strip(),
        "lastCheckd": lastCheckd.strip(),
        "status": "unknown"
    })
