Python JSON serialize a Decimal object

Question

I have a Decimal(\'3.9\') as part of an object, and wish to encode this to a JSON string which should look like {\'x\': 3.9}. I don\'t care about p

Answer 1

For anybody that wants a quick solution here is how I removed Decimal from my queries in Django

total_development_cost_var = process_assumption_objects.values('total_development_cost').aggregate(sum_dev = Sum('total_development_cost', output_field=FloatField()))
total_development_cost_var = list(total_development_cost_var.values())

• Step 1: use , output_field=FloatField() in you r query
• Step 2: use list eg list(total_development_cost_var.values())

Hope it helps
