Creating a JSON response using Django and Python

2018-12-31 08:57发布

I'm trying to convert a server side Ajax response script into a Django HttpResponse, but apparently it's not working.

This is the server-side script:

/* RECEIVE VALUE */
$validateValue=$_POST['validateValue'];
$validateId=$_POST['validateId'];
$validateError=$_POST['validateError'];

/* RETURN VALUE */
$arrayToJs = array();
$arrayToJs[0] = $validateId;
$arrayToJs[1] = $validateError;

if($validateValue =="Testuser"){  // Validate??
    $arrayToJs[2] = "true";       // RETURN TRUE
    echo '{"jsonValidateReturn":'.json_encode($arrayToJs).'}';  // RETURN ARRAY WITH success
}
else{
    for($x=0;$x<1000000;$x++){
        if($x == 990000){
            $arrayToJs[2] = "false";
            echo '{"jsonValidateReturn":'.json_encode($arrayToJs).'}';   // RETURNS ARRAY WITH ERROR.
        }
    }
}

And this is the converted code

def validate_user(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        vld_value = request.POST.get('validateValue')
        vld_id = request.POST.get('validateId')
        vld_error = request.POST.get('validateError')

        array_to_js = [vld_id, vld_error, False]

        if vld_value == "TestUser":
            array_to_js[2] = True
            x = simplejson.dumps(array_to_js)
            return HttpResponse(x)
        else:
            array_to_js[2] = False
            x = simplejson.dumps(array_to_js)
            error = 'Error'
            return render_to_response('index.html',{'error':error},context_instance=RequestContext(request))
    return render_to_response('index.html',context_instance=RequestContext(request))

I'm using simplejson to encode the Python list (so it will return a JSON array). I couldn't figure out the problem yet. But I think that I did something wrong about the 'echo'.

Since Django 1.7 you have a standard JsonResponse that's exactly what you need:

from django.http import JsonResponse
...
return JsonResponse(array_to_js, safe=False)

You don't even need to json.dump your array.

In View use this:

form.field.errors|striptags

for getting validation messages without html

First import this:

from django.http import HttpResponse

If you have the JSON already:

def your_method(request):
    your_json = [{'key1': value, 'key2': value}]
    return HttpResponse(your_json, 'application/json')

If you get the JSON from another HTTP request:

def your_method(request):
    response = request.get('https://www.example.com/get/json')
    return HttpResponse(response, 'application/json')

Its very convenient with Django version 1.7 or higher as you have the JsonResponse class, which is a subclass of HttpResponse.

from django.http import JsonResponse
    def profile(request):
        data = {
            'name': 'Raghav',
            'location': 'India',
            'is_active': False,
            'count': 28
        }
        return JsonResponse(data)

For older versions of Django, you must use an HttpResponse object.

import json
from django.http import HttpResponse

def profile(request):
    data = {
        'name': 'Raghav',
        'location': 'India',
        'is_active': False,
        'count': 28
    }
    dump = json.dumps(data)
    return HttpResponse(dump, content_type='application/json')

Django code views.py:

def view(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        print request.body
        data = request.body
        return HttpResponse(json.dumps(data))

HTML code view.html:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#mySelect").change(function(){
        selected = $("#mySelect option:selected").text()
        $.ajax({
            type: 'POST',
            dataType: 'json',
            contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
            url: '/view/',
            data: {
                    'fruit': selected
                  },
            success: function(result) {
                        document.write(result)
                    }
    });
  });
});
</script>
</head>
<body>

<form>
    {{data}}
    <br>
Select your favorite fruit:
<select id="mySelect">
  <option value="apple" selected >Select fruit</option>
  <option value="apple">Apple</option>
  <option value="orange">Orange</option>
  <option value="pineapple">Pineapple</option>
  <option value="banana">Banana</option>
</select>
</form>
</body>
</html>

This is my preferred version using a class based view. Simply subclass the basic View and override the get()-method.

import json

class MyJsonView(View):

    def get(self, *args, **kwargs):
        resp = {'my_key': 'my value',}
        return HttpResponse(json.dumps(resp), mimetype="application/json" )
