I have the following python program to read a set of JSON files do some processing on it and dump them back to the same folder. However When I run the below program and then try to see the output of the JSON file using
`cat file.json | python -m json.tool` I get the following error `extra data: line 1 column 307 - line 1 column 852 (char 306 - 851)` What is wrong with my program? #Process 'new' events to extract more info from 'Messages' rootDir = '/home/s_parts' for dirName, subdirList, fileList in os.walk(rootDir): print('Found directory: %s' % dirName) for fname in fileList: fname='s_parts/'+fname with open(fname, 'r+') as f: json_data = json.load(f) et = json_data['Et'] ms = json_data['Ms'] if (event == 'a.b.c.d') or (event == 'e.f.g.h'): url = re.sub('.+roxy=([^& ]*).*', r'\1', ms) nt = re.findall(r"NT:\s*([^,)]*)",ms)[0] bt = re.findall(r"BT:\s*([^,)]*)",ms)[0] xt = re.findall(r"XT:\s*([^,)]*)",ms)[0] appde = ms.split('Appde:')[1].strip().split('<br>')[0] version = ms.split('version:')[1].strip().split('<br>')[0] json_data["url"] = url json_data["BT"] = bt json_data["XT"] = xt json_data["NT"] = nt json_data["Appde"] = appde json_data["version"] = version else: json_data["url"] = "null" json_data["BT"] = "null" json_data["XT"] = "null" json_data["NT"] = "null" json_data["Appde"] = "null" json_data["version"] = "null" json.dump(json_data,f) If I do a `file` command on the output file I get `events_parts/data_95: ASCII text, with very long lines, with no line terminators` -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
