JSON to Python

Generate Python dataclass from any JSON object.

Input
Python Dataclass

📖 What is JSON to Python?

JSON to Python converts a JSON sample into Python code — either as a typed dictionary literal or as dataclass definitions with type hints. Use it to quickly scaffold Python models from API responses, generate typed data structures, or create test fixtures from JSON samples. All processing happens in your browser.

💡 Example

Input
{"name":"Alice","age":30,"tags":["dev","admin"]}
Output
data = { "name": "Alice", "age": 30, "tags": ["dev", "admin"] }

🛠️ Common Use Cases

  • Creating Python dataclasses from API response samples
  • Generating typed dictionaries with TypedDict for type checking
  • Building test fixtures and mock data from JSON examples
  • Converting JSON config into Python dict literals
  • Scaffolding Pydantic models from JSON schema samples

📝 Python JSON Type Mapping

  • JSON string → str
  • JSON number (integer) → int
  • JSON number (decimal) → float
  • JSON boolean → bool
  • JSON null → None
  • JSON array → list
  • JSON object → dict or dataclass

⚠️ Common Mistakes

  • True vs true — Python uses True/False/None (capitalized), not JSON's true/false/null
  • Single vs double quotes — Python allows both, but JSON requires double quotes. json.loads() handles this automatically.
  • Large integers — Python handles arbitrary precision integers natively, but be careful when round-tripping through JSON (some parsers use float64)

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Does it generate dataclasses?
It generates Python dict literals. For dataclass or Pydantic model output, use the dict as a starting point and add type annotations manually, or use a dedicated tool.
How does Python handle JSON null?
JSON null becomes Python None. When using json.loads(), this conversion is automatic.
Can I use the output with type hints?
Yes — the generated code uses correct Python types. Add TypedDict or dataclass decorators for full static type checking with mypy.
Is my data private?
Yes — all processing runs entirely in your browser. Your data is never sent to any server.
Is this tool free?
Completely free — no login, no usage limits, works offline once loaded.
