New submission from anton-ryzhov: JSON doesn't allow to have non-sting keys in objects, so json.dumps converts its to string. But if several keys has one string representation — we'll get damaged result as follows:
>>> import json >>> json.dumps({1: 2, "1": "2"}) '{"1": 2, "1": "2"}' I think it should raise ValueError in this case. I've tested this case on 2.7, 3.4 and on trunk version 3.6. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 263108 nosy: anton-ryzhov priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Serialize dict with non-string keys to JSON — unexpected result type: behavior versions: Python 2.7, Python 3.4, Python 3.5, Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue26724> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
