使用Pandas将JSON转换为CSV

Question

我很难尝试使用Pandas将下面显示的JSON字符串转换为CSV。在

下面是我的示例字符串（也可以从文件中读取）：

我感兴趣的是“结果”部分。在

我用熊猫做了这个实验：

^{pr2}$

但我得到了以下错误：

File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pandas\io\json.py", line 281, in read_json
    date_unit).parse()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pandas\io\json.py", line 349, in parse
    self._parse_no_numpy()
  File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pandas\io\json.py", line 566, in _parse_no_numpy
    loads(json, precise_float=self.precise_float), dtype=None)
TypeError: Expected String or Unicode

我也尝试了这里大部分冗长的建议：How can I convert JSON to CSV?，试图将上面的json直接转换成CSV（绕过Pandas），但没有成功。在

谁能给我个提示吗？提前感谢您能提供的任何帮助。在

谨致问候

您可以使用^{}：

import json
from pandas.io.json import json_normalize

with open('file.json') as data_file:    
    data = json.load(data_file) 

df = json_normalize(data, 'results')
df.to_csv("output.csv", index=False, sep='\t', encoding="utf-8") #write to csv file

print (df)
