json-flatten

Python functions for flattening a JSON object to a single dictionary of pairs, and unflattening that dictionary back to a JSON object.

Useful if you need to represent a JSON object using a regular HTML form or transmit it as a set of querystring parameters.

For example:

>>> json_flatten.flatten({"foo": {"bar": [1, True, None]}})
{'foo.bar.0$int': '1', 'foo.bar.1$bool': 'True', 'foo.bar.2$none': 'None'}
>>> json_flatten.unflatten(d)
{'foo': {'bar': [1, True, None]}}
