📅 2023-10-02 — Session: Enhanced JSON Export Function for Data Integrity
🕒 18:40–19:30
🏷️ Labels: Python, JSON, Data Handling, Code Update
📂 Project: Dev
⭐ Priority: MEDIUM
Session Goal
The primary objective was to enhance a Python function responsible for exporting hierarchical JSON data, ensuring data integrity and avoiding overwrites.
Key Activities
- Fixing Dictionary Initialization: Modified the function to prevent reinitialization of dictionaries for existing entries, maintaining data integrity.
- Data Handling Logic: Implemented logic to add new entries without overwriting existing data, ensuring proper updates.
- Logic Update: Enhanced the logic to handle ‘data’ keys as lists of dictionaries for quarterly data management.
- Error Resolution: Addressed internal errors to maintain the structure of the data.
- Key-Value Pair Updates: Ensured key-value pairs are correctly inserted or updated in nested dictionaries.
- Import Error Fix: Resolved import error by incorporating the
copymodule for deep copying operations.
Achievements
- Successfully updated the JSON export function to handle hierarchical data without overwriting existing entries.
- Improved data handling logic to maintain the integrity of quarterly data.
- Resolved errors related to data duplication and import issues.
Pending Tasks
- Further testing is required to confirm the robustness of the updated function across different data scenarios.
