Create JSON in more simple way

[PetrVacek]

Hello

I try to create JSON file for animation, but I get some error (although the script works - thanks for your great work, this makes things much easier as I don’t know much about Python json library and dicts).

Also, is there a way how to make things easier? Possibly in one step instead of three?
I need to compile JSON file containing “frames” of animation, each frame containing 91 addresses, up-down and left-right positions for servos.

Any help would be great!

Really no need to create two threads on the same subject six hours apart, even if you can’t code in Python yourself.

Grasshopper to JSON difficulty

I am new to Python and am not much familiar with JSON structure. But I need to compile animation data for a bunch of mirrors. I used json.dumps() but I don’t know how to work with data tree in Python. Can someone give me a hint, please? I have two data trees with identical structure, where each branch represents one “frame” and contains movement data for 91 servos. Is there a simple way how to compile one single JSON from that data? JSON should look like this (just an example): { "animation":…

Sorry, I though this goes only to specific group, not the whole thread.

Since I don’t really know what the result of the JSON Construct should look like, I can’t be of much help. Maybe you could try to produce a minimal file with fewer branches as inputs and attach a text panel with the expected result of the construct component.
In the meanwhile, make sure to have a look at this documentation article if you didn’t already. There is a section explaining how to use trees to reduce the number of construct operations.
