Hi, There does not seem to be an easy way to serialize anything to JSON: serializers.serialize will handle a QuerySet simplejson.dumps will handle normal python data structures
But what about a python dict which has a django model instance in it, for example??? Or a Field? Sure, i can (and did) write a trivial recursive function (it was a hack, i should make it a proper serializer) which looks into the structure and loops into the elements. upon finding a list or dict or tuple, it calls itself. Finding a queryset it calls serializers.serialize Finding a base python type it calls simplejson.dumps Finding a model instance, i made a stupid quick hack to get a queryset which has that instance only, and then i call serializers.serialize on it. But i can hardly believe i'm the first one with this problem; did anyone make a generic serializer, which will handle both python stuff and django stuff (not just QuerySets)??? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
