Shopify Python API : How to serialize products list to JSON?

Shopify Apps
1

I want to fetch Products list and return as JSON using the Shopify Python API.

I tried the .to_json() function

products=shopify.Product.find().to_json()

Got the error

'PaginatedCollection' object has no attribute 'to_json'

I tried doing

products=shopify.Product.find() 
js=json.dumps(products)

Error:

Object of type Product is not JSON serializable

How can I serialize the Products response to JSON ?

You can use jsonpickle for this.

import jsonpickle

products = shopify.Product.find()
products_page_json  =jsonpickle.encode(products)

shopify.Product.find()

return a list of products. to_json() is a method of Product object. Of course, it’s throwing errors

Seriously you should test with shell
