[Qgis-developer] Manipulating JSON files from Python

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi all,

I would like to write small utility to manipulate metadata in a JSON
file (for QGIS Webclient), like this one:
http://webgis.uster.ch/qgis-web-client-dev/js/GISProjectListing.js

The tool should import the JSON file, change some values and write it back.

The idea would be to update, e.g. the time the data was last updated or
other values.

My questions:

* what library should I use? SimpleJSON? Others?

* Does someone have sample code around that does something similar?

Thanks,
Andreas
