jsonpickle datetime to readable json format

Is it possible to convert datetime into a readable JSON format (which could be used from javascript)? Currently jsonpickle provides only a binary encoded value for datetime.

After some trial and error I came up with the following solution:

class DatetimeHandler(jsonpickle.handlers.BaseHandler):
    def flatten(self, obj, data):
        return obj.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S.%f')

jsonpickle.handlers.registry.register(datetime, DatetimeHandler)

encoded_datetime = jsonpickle.encode(datetime.now())
print(encoded_datetime)
decode_datetime = jsonpickle.decode(encoded_datetime)
print(decode_datetime)
