For some reason, I am getting an error for something that has been working before can someone please tell me what is the problem.

    import os
    import json
    for filename in os.listdir(os.getcwd()):
        print(filename)
        if '.json' in filename:
            with open(filename, 'w') as y:
                filename = filename[:-5]
                json.dump({
                    "parent": "item/generated",
                    "textures": {
                        f"item/guildinterface/{filename}"
                    }

                }, y)


if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

the error is

  • I didn`t understand anything from that article can you just tell me what do I need to change? – yotam rec Dec 06 '19 at 07:17
  • The error is pretty self-explanatory: you are trying to `json.dump` a `set`, which is the `{...}` after `"textures":`. There's no standard way to serialise a `set` to JSON. Use a list instead. – deceze Dec 06 '19 at 07:27
