Description-en: library to apply JSON patches - Python 2.x transitional package
Python-json-patch is a Python module (a library) to apply JSON Patches
according to the IETF draft specification.
.
From the IETF site:
.
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) [RFC4627] is a common format for the
exchange and storage of structured data. HTTP PATCH [RFC5789] extends the
Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) [RFC2616] with a method to perform partial
modifications to resources.
.
JSON Patch is a format (identified by the media type "application/
json-patch") for expressing a sequence of operations to apply to a target JSON
document, suitable for use with the HTTP PATCH method.
.
This format is also potentially useful in other cases when it's necessary to
make partial updates to a JSON document.
.
This package is a transitional package to python-jsonpatch.
