Browserslist-rs Gets Major Refactor, Cutting Binary Size by Over 1MB
Browserslist-rs now uses static data to reduce binary size by over 1MB, improving memory use and performance for Rust-based frontend tools.
DynamoDB json util to load and dump strings of Dynamodb json format to python object and vise-versa
just use pip:
pip install dynamodb-json
The dynamodb-json util works the same as json loads and dumps functions:
import time
import uuid
from datetime import datetime
from decimal import Decimal
from dynamodb_json import json_util as json
json_ = {"MyString": "a",
"num": 4,
"MyBool": False,
"my_dict": {"my_date": datetime.utcnow()},
"MyNone": None,
"MyZero": 0,
"myDecimal": Decimal("19.2"), # converts Decimal to float, load it as float
"myLong": long(1938475658493),
"MyNestedDict": {
"my_other_nested": {
"name": "John",
"surname": "Lennon",
"MyOtherNone": None,
"floaty": float(29.4),
"myList": [1, 3, 4, 5, 6, "This Is Sparta!"],
"mySet": {1, 3, 4, 5, 6}, # converts set to list, returns as list
"myUUID": uuid.uuid4(), # converts uuid to string, loads it as string
"time": time.time() # converts it to seconds python float, loads it as float
}
}
}
dynamodb_json = json.dumps(json_)
# {
# "my_dict": {"M": {"my_date": {"S": "2017-04-22T14:41:35.780000"}}},
