I am running the following code-
import json
addrsfile =
open("C:\\Users\file.json",
"r")
addrJson = json.loads(addrsfile.read())
addrsfile.close()
if addrJson:
print("yes")
But giving me following error-
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:/Users/Mayur/Documents/WebPython/Python_WebServices/test.py", line 9, in <module>
addrJson = json.loads(addrsfile.read())
File "C:\Users\Mayur\Anaconda3\lib\json\__init__.py", line 354, in loads
return _default_decoder.decode(s)
File "C:\Users\Mayur\Anaconda3\lib\json\decoder.py", line 342, in decode
raise JSONDecodeError("Extra data", s, end)
json.decoder.JSONDecodeError: Extra data: line 2 column 1 (char 190)
Anyone help me please?
JSON file is like-
{"name": "XYZ", "address": "54.7168,94.0215", "country_of_residence": "PQR", "countries": "LMN;PQRST", "date": "28-AUG-2008", "type": null}
{"name": "OLMS", "address": null, "country_of_residence": null, "countries": "Not identified;No", "date": "23-FEB-2017", "type": null}
This question is related to

I was parsing JSON from a REST API call and got this error. It turns out the API had become "fussier" (eg about order of parameters etc) and so was returning malformed results. Check that you are getting what you expect :)
This error can also show up if there are parts in your string that json.loads()
does not recognize. An in this example string, an error will be raised at character 27 (char 27)
.
string = """[{"Item1": "One", "Item2": False}, {"Item3": "Three"}]"""
My solution to this would be to use the string.replace()
to convert these items to a string:
import json
string = """[{"Item1": "One", "Item2": False}, {"Item3": "Three"}]"""
string = string.replace("False", '"False"')
dict_list = json.loads(string)
You have two records in your json file, and json.loads()
is not able to decode more than one. You need to do it record by record.
See Python json.loads shows ValueError: Extra data
OR you need to reformat your json to contain an array:
{
"foo" : [
{"name": "XYZ", "address": "54.7168,94.0215", "country_of_residence": "PQR", "countries": "LMN;PQRST", "date": "28-AUG-2008", "type": null},
{"name": "OLMS", "address": null, "country_of_residence": null, "countries": "Not identified;No", "date": "23-FEB-2017", "type": null}
]
}
would be acceptable again. But there cannot be several top level objects.
