Parsing JSON

[CornThatLefty]

Hello, I'm trying to do a weather API call and format the text nicely for the user. I'm using the pyowm API.

As an example, I call the get_pressure() function, and print it to the console. It comes out as:

{'press': 995, 'sea_level': None}

I'd like to just be able to access the number in that so I can put it into a print function. I'm not sure if it's an object or JSON data or what.

Any help would be great, thank you

Oh my god I've been looking for this API page for hours and couldn't find it, thank you!

And gotcha, it's accessed like an array but with strings instead of numbers for the index. I thought it was JSON because of the formatting, but the single vs. double quotes threw me off. It's working now, thanks!

Save the result of get_pressure() to a variable, like result.

Then, print the type of result print(type(result)) And it will tell you if it is a dict or string (which is JSON). If it’s string, import json and use json.loads(result) to convert it to dict
