I’m trying to read a json and get its values. I have a folder with the JSON’s archives, and I need to open all archives and get the values from them.

This is the code:

# -*- encoding: utf-8 -*-
from pprint import pprint
import json
import os 
def start():
    for dirname, dirnames, filenames in os.walk('test'):
        for filename in filenames:
            json_file = open(os.path.join(dirname, filename)).read()
            # json_file = unicode(json_file, 'utf-8')
            json_data = json.loads(json_file)
           pprint(json_data)
            for key, value in json_data.items():
                print "KEY : ", key
                print "VALUE: ", value
                start()

This is one of the JSON’s

{ "test" : "Search User 1",
   "url"  : "http://127.0.0.1:8000/api/v1/user/1/?format=json",
   "status_code" : 200,
   "method" : "get"
}

But when I run it, i get this:

ValueError: No JSON object could be decoded

What the hell is wrong? Yesterday it was working exactly as it is now, or am I crazy

I tried this way:

from pprint import pprint
import json
import os
for dirname, dirnames, filenames in os.walk('test'):
    for filename in filenames:
        json_file_contents = open(os.path.join(dirname, filename)).read()
        try:
            json_data = json.loads(json_file_contents)
        except ValueError, e:
            print e
            print "ERROR"

I cant see any error ‘-‘

for filename in filenames:
        with open(os.path.join(dirname,filename)) as fd:
            json_data = fd.read()
            print json_data

This way I can see what the json files contain, but I can’t use for example access by the key, like json_data['url']
