python json list indices must be integers or slices, not str error

I'm making a game and I started working on the save and loading part it's supposed to change some text based on a value in the JSON file and when I try to import the JSON file by giu that I built I get this error


    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "save_test.py", line 112, in <module>
        object.process()
      File "save_test.py", line 65, in process  
        self.onclickFunction()
      File "save_test.py", line 83, in open_file
        import_text()
      File "save_test.py", line 91, in import_text
        importedText = data_load(['Text']['text'])
    TypeError: list indices must be integers or slices, not str

you will need a JSON file so that you can import it then you run the code
Code:

# Imports
import sys
import pygame
import tkinter as tk
from tkinter import filedialog
import json

root = tk.Tk()
root.withdraw()

# Configuration
pygame.init()

        objects.append(self)

            else:

        self.buttonSurface.blit(self.buttonSurf, [
            self.buttonRect.width/2 - self.buttonSurf.get_rect().width/2,
            self.buttonRect.height/2 - self.buttonSurf.get_rect().height/2

# Game loop.
while True:
    screen.fill((20, 20, 20))
    for event in pygame.event.get():
        if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
            pygame.quit()
            sys.exit()
    text = font.render(importedText, True, green, blue)
    # create a rectangular object for the
    # text surface object
    textRect = text.get_rect()
    textRect.center = (width  // 2, height // 2)
    for object in objects:
        object.process()
    screen.blit(text, textRect)
    pygame.display.flip()
    pygame.display.update()
    fpsClock.tick(fps)

JSON file: {"Text": {"text": "import successful"}}

CodePudding user response:

Your code is calling data_load as a function, but it is a dictionary. Change your import_text function to:

def import_text():
    global importedText
    f = open(importedText)
    data_load = json.load(f)
    importedText = data_load['Text']['text']
