I have a JSON file of the following format:
[
{"url": "example1.com", "date": "Jan 1", "text": "Example text 1"},
{"url": "example2.com", "date": "Jan 2", "text": "Example text 2"}
]
Which I upload into Python using:
with open("data.json") as data:
data = json.load(data)
I would like to reformat the uploaded data to the following format:
[
("Example text 1", {"url": "example1.com", "date": "Jan 1"}),
("Example text 2", {"url": "example2.com", "date": "Jan 2"})
]
We can use dict.pop
for each dictionary to create the tuples in a loop:
data = [
{"url": "example1.com", "date": "Jan 1", "text": "Example text 1"},
{"url": "example2.com", "date": "Jan 2", "text": "Example text 2"}
]
# make tuples
[(d.pop('text'), d) for d in data]
# [('Example text 1', {'url': 'example1.com', 'date': 'Jan 1'}),
# ('Example text 2', {'url': 'example2.com', 'date': 'Jan 2'})]
