Parsing couchdb query result using json in Python

Question

I am a getting query result from couchdb emit function in python as follows:

<Row id=u'c0cc622ca2d877432a5ccd8cbc002432', key=u'eric', value={u'_rev': u'1-e327a4c2708d4015e6e89efada38348f', u'_id': u'c0cc622ca2d877432a5ccd8cbc002432', u'email': u'yap', u'name': u'eric'}>

How do I parse the content of value item as:

{u'_rev': u'1-e327a4c2708d4015e6e89efada38348f', u'_id': u'c0cc622ca2d877432a5ccd8cbc002432', u'email': u'yap', u'name': u'eric'}

using json?

I'm not sure what you mean by "parsing the contents using json". The data should already be parsed and you can refer to any attributes by doing something like row.value["_id"] where row is the name of the variable referencing the Row object.

The value is already converted to a python dictionary. So, if you need to change it to a JSON string just use json.loads, otherwise you can access the key with row.key and value attributes with row.value['some_attribute'].
