Jsoninja

A library that allows you to generate JSON's from
templates written with Python data types.

Instalation

$ pip install jsoninja

Use Case Examples

You can use the main Python data types:

from jsoninja import Jsoninja

jsoninja = Jsoninja()
template = {
    "foo": "{{variable_name}}",
}
replacements = {
    "variable_name": "bar",
}
result = jsoninja.replace(template, replacements)

# {
#   "foo": "bar",
# }

Allows multiple replacements of the same variable:

from jsoninja import Jsoninja

jsoninja = Jsoninja()
template = {
    "message1": "{{message}}",
    "message2": "{{message}}",
    "message3": "{{message}}",
}
replacements = {
    "message": "I am duplicated!",
}
result = jsoninja.replace(template, replacements)

# {
#   "message1": "I am duplicated!",
#   "message2": "I am duplicated!",
#   "message3": "I am duplicated!",
# }

Use callback functions to generate the values to be replaced:

from jsoninja import Jsoninja


def generate_password() -> str:
    return "super_secret_password"


jsoninja = Jsoninja()
template = {
    "password": "{{password}}",
}
replacements = {
    "password": generate_password,
}
result = jsoninja.replace(template, replacements)

# {
#   "password": "super_secret_password",
# }

Support for variables in the dict keys (replacements must be str, int, float or bool):

from jsoninja import Jsoninja

jsoninja = Jsoninja()
template = {
    "{{variable_name}}": "bar",
}
replacements = {
    "variable_name": "foo",
}
result = jsoninja.replace(template, replacements)

# {
#   "foo": "bar",
# }

Known Limitations

• When replacing a variable declared in a dict key, the order will change.
