Timestamp
timestamp = datetime.datetime.now()
print("It is {}".format(timestamp.strftime("%A %d %B %Y %I:%M:%S%p")))
Math
total += 1
If-then
# Boolean, none
if motion is not None:
if not flag:

# Number
if delay > 0:
if delay == 0:
if total > frameCount:

# String
if "blue" in style:
if authors.startswith('['):
    authors = authors.lstrip('[').rstrip(']')
    
def doi_url(d): return f'http://{d}' if d.startswith('doi.org') else f'http://doi.org/{d}'
Command Arguments
# construct the argument parser and parse the arguments
ap = argparse.ArgumentParser()
ap.add_argument("-i", "--interval", required=False,
        help="Seconds to Interval (Default:30)", default="30", type=int)
ap.add_argument("-o", "--output", required=False,
        help="Path to Output Logs (Default:std-out)")
args = vars(ap.parse_args())

# Usage
intv = args["interval"]
logfile = args["output"]
JSON

JSON to dict

import json

person = '{"name": "Bob", "languages": ["English", "French"]}'
person_dict = json.loads(person)

# Output: {'name': 'Bob', 'languages': ['English', 'French']}
print( person_dict)

# Output: ['English', 'French']
print(person_dict['languages'])

Dict to JSON

import json

person_dict = {'name': 'Bob',
'age': 12,
'children': None
}
person_json = json.dumps(person_dict)

# Output: {"name": "Bob", "age": 12, "children": null}
print(person_json)

Read JSON file

import json

with open('path_to_file/person.json', 'r') as f:
  data = json.load(f)

# Output: {'name': 'Bob', 'languages': ['English', 'French']}
print(data)

Write JSON file

json.dump 用來寫檔案; json.dumps 用來轉換資料。

import json

person_dict = {"name": "Bob",
"languages": ["English", "French"],
"married": True,
"age": 32
}

with open('person.txt', 'w') as json_file:
  json.dump(person_dict, json_file)

Print JSON

import json

person_string = '{"name": "Bob", "languages": "English", "numbers": [2, 1.6, null]}'

# Getting dictionary
person_dict = json.loads(person_string)

# Pretty Printing JSON string back
print(json.dumps(person_dict, indent = 4, sort_keys=True))
