json-ext-encoder

Extended JSON encoder for Python data structures.

A subclass of JSONEncoder, it handles these additional types:

• datetime.datetime — a string of the form YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ or YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sss+HH:MM as defined in ECMA-262.
• datetime.date — a string of the form YYYY-MM-DD as defined in ECMA-262.
• datetime.time — a string of the form HH:MM:ss.sss as defined in ECMA-262.
• datetime.timedelta - a string representing a duration as defined in ISO-8601. For example, timedelta(days=1, hours=2, seconds=3.4) is represented as P1DT02H00M03.400000S.
• decimal.Decimal, uuid.UUID — a string representation of the object.
• enum.Enum — a .value property of enum member.
