Bug report
When you try to serialize a NaN
, inf
or -inf
with json.dumps(..., allow_nan=False)
, the error messages are inconsistent, depending on whether you use the indent
argument or not.
>>> json.dumps(float('nan'), allow_nan=False)
ValueError: Out of range float values are not JSON compliant
>>> json.dumps(float('nan'), allow_nan=False, indent=4)
ValueError: Out of range float values are not JSON compliant: nan
That is because if you don't use indent
, the encoding is done in C code here,
but if you use indent
, the encoding is done in pure Python code here, and the error messages are different between the two.
