I'm trying to update existing Json file, but from some reason, the requested value is not being changed but the entire set of values (with the new value) is being appended to the original file
jsonFile = open("replayScript.json", "r+")
data = json.load(jsonFile)
tmp = data["location"]
data["location"] = "NewPath"
jsonFile.write(json.dumps(data))
and the result is : Required:
{
"location": "NewPath",
"Id": "0",
"resultDir": "",
"resultFile": "",
"mode": "replay",
"className": "",
"method": "METHOD"
}
Actual:
{
"location": "/home/karim/storm/project/storm/devqa/default.xml",
"Id": "0",
"resultDir": "",
"resultFile": "",
"mode": "replay",
"className": "",
"method": "METHOD"
}
{
"resultDir": "",
"location": "pathaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa",
"method": "METHOD",
"className": "",
"mode": "replay",
"Id": "0",
"resultFile": ""
}
