Add json response to a list-CodePudding

I am new in learning python requests and I am using GET METHOD and I am trying to insert returned json content in list, But it is showing

TypeError: Object of type bytes is not JSON serializable

I have tried many times and I also tried by adding into dictionary.

views.py

def request_get(request):
    url = "http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/items/"
    response = requests.get(url)

    results = []

    results.append(response.content)

    return redirect('home')

But it is showing TypeError: Object of type bytes is not JSON serializable

I have also tried by using :-

results = []

results.append({
    'response' : response.content
})

TypeError: Object of type bytes is not JSON serializable

But it also didn't worked for me.

Any help would be much Appreciated. Thank You in Advance

CodePudding user response：

You need to use results.append(response.json()) to convert to JSON

Or try:

import json
results.append(json.loads(response.content.decode("utf-8")))
