In python, everything is just as simple as you can think of. In this simple python project, you will see how you can create a python project that will take a JSON file as an input and output a CSV file.
Convert a json file to a csv file in python
We are not going to re-invent the wheel but we will use the JSON module and the CSV module. The json module and the CSV module are two built-in modules in python programming.
Create a file with the name app.py and paste the following code in it and then run it. It will convert a JSON file to a CSV file.
import json
try:
with open('input.json', 'r') as f:
data = json.loads(f.read())
output = ','.join([*data[0]])
for obj in data:
output += f'\n{obj["Name"]},{obj["age"]},{obj["birthyear"]}'
with open('output.csv', 'w') as f:
f.write(output)
except Exception as ex:
print(f'Error: {str(ex)}')Just make sure that you have the json file in the current directory. It will then convert the json file into a csv file.
