March Madness Day 17

Experimentation with representations of JSON in Python. This program takes some test data in a file of formatted JSON data from stdio and loads it into memory and then prints out the version in memory.

testdata.json

{"foo":"bar", "baz":1, "a":2}

jsonstdio.py

import sys
import json

def getjson(jd):
        jsondata = json.loads(jd)
        print "JSON Data: "
        print repr(jsondata)


def main():
 stdin = sys.stdin.read()
 getjson(stdin)
 
if __name__=="__main__":
    main()

How to run:
python jsonstdio.py < testdata.json
