From Nested Dictionary to CSV File

Question

I have nested dictionary (with length > 70.000):

users_item = {
    "sessionId1": {
        "12345645647": 1.0, 
        "9798654": 5.0 

    },         
    "sessionId2":{
        "3445657657": 1.0

    },
    "sessionId3": {
        "87967976": 5.0, 
        "35325626436": 1.0, 
        "126789435": 1.0, 
        "72139856": 5.0      
    },
    "sessionId4": {
        "4582317": 1.0         
    }
......
}

I want create CSV file from my nested dictionary, my result will look like:

sessionId1 item rating
sessionId1 item rating
sessionId2 item rating
sessionId3 item rating
sessionId3 item rating
sessionId3 item rating
sessionId3 item rating
.......

I found this post: Convert Nested Dictionary to CSV Table

It's similar to my question but it's not working when I try all answers, pandas library run out of memory

How I can make CSV file with my data?

Answer 1

Just loop through the dictionary and use the Python csv writer to write to the csv file.

with open('output.csv', 'w') as csv_file:
    csvwriter = csv.writer(csv_file, delimiter='\t')
    for session in users_item:
        for item in users_item[session]:
            csvwriter.writerow([session, item, users_item[session][item]])
