Convert List Of Dict To Csv In Python

I have used inheritance for employee details and I'm trying to write it as a csv. My output is in the form of list of dicts and when I'm trying to write it as csv, its not getting

Solution 1:

use csv module of python.

data_list = [{...},{...}...]

keys = data_list[0].keys()
withopen('test.csv', 'wb') as output_file:
    dict_writer = csv.DictWriter(output_file, keys)
    dict_writer.writeheader()
    dict_writer.writerows(data_list)

Solution 2:

Part of the solution is converting your dictionary to a list...The following handles the situation when you have lists within lists within a dictionary...The output is in excel file named 'output' rather than csv.

output=[]
for m indict.keys():
    output.append([m,dict[m]])
output2=[]

for n in output:  
    temp=[]
    for k in n:  
        ifisinstance(k,list):   #if it's a listfor j in k:   #for the items of that listifisinstance(j,list):   #if it's a listfor i in j:   #for the items of that list
                        temp.append(i)
                else:
                    temp.append(j)
        else:
            temp.append(k)  #if it's not a list, just append
    output2.append(temp)  #append the overall#%%#output to excel   

wb=openpyxl.load_workbook('output.xlsx')
sheet=wb.get_sheet_by_name('Sheet1')
for i inrange(0,len(output2)):
    for j inrange(0,len(output2[i])):
        sheet.cell(row=i+3, column = j+1).value = str(output2[i][j])
wb.save('output.xlsx')
wb.close()
