This is a follow-up question to this one. I need to both prettyprint a python dict (so I can visually inspect/modify it), and I need to have the output in json format (with the double quotes).
pprint module prettyprints the dict but uses single quotes (not json!). That's the topic of the linked other question/answer.
json.dumps will use the double quotes, but prints it in a big line (not human readable!)
How can we achieve both?

Method 2: Writing JSON to a file in Python using json.dump() Another way of writing JSON to a file is by using json. dump() method The JSON package has the “dump” function which directly writes the dictionary to a file in the form of JSON, without needing to convert it into an actual JSON object.
Use JSON. stringify(obj) method to convert JavaScript objects into strings and display it. Use JSON. stringify(obj, replacer, space) method to convert JavaScript objects into strings in pretty format.
See the docs:
import json
print(json.dumps(
{'4': 5, '6': 7},
sort_keys=True,
indent=4,
separators=(',', ': ')
))
