Michal Nowikowski <godf...@gmail.com> added the comment: In json module there are dump/dumps methods which internally instantiate encoder class JSONEncoder (or some other user-defined encoder clas). They look as follows:
json.dump(obj, fp, skipkeys=False, ensure_ascii=True, check_circular=True, allow_nan=True, cls=None, indent=None, separators=None, default=None, **kw) json.JSONEncoder(skipkeys=False, ensure_ascii=True, check_circular=True, allow_nan=True, sort_keys=False, indent=None, separators=None, default=None) Some of dump/dumps arguments are passed to encoder class: - skipkeys - ensure_ascii - check_circular - allow_nan - indent - separators - default And it looks that sort_keys is just missing in keyword args in dump/dumps method. But it still can be passed implicitly using **kw arg. I would propose to do: - add explicitly sort_keys keyword arg to dump/dumps methods - add passing it to encoder class - and adjust documentation accordingly. ---------- nosy: +godfryd _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue14570> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
