Hi, I have a program that does a lot of work with URLs and requests, collecting data over about an hour, & then writing the collated data to a JSON file. The first time I ran it, the json.dump failed because there was a bytes value instead of a str, so I had to figure out where that was coming from before I could get any data out. I've previously run into the problem of collecting values in sets (for deduplication) & forgetting to walk through the big data object changing them to lists before serializing.
Is there a "bulletproof" version of json.dump somewhere that will convert bytes to str, any other iterables to list, etc., so you can just get your data into a file & keep working? (I'm using Python 3.7.) Thanks! -- Slade was the coolest band in England.
