将上面的输入字符串作为一个名为“data”的变量，这个 Python+pyparsing 代码会理解它。不幸的是，第四个'|'右边的那个东西不是真正的 JSON。幸运的是，它的格式足够好，可以在没有过度不适的情况下对其进行解析。请参阅下面程序中的嵌入式 cmets：
from pyparsing import *
from datetime import datetime
# for the most part, we suppress punctuation - it's important at parse time
# but just gets in the way afterwards
LBRACE,RBRACE,COLON,DBLQ,LBRACK,RBRACK = map(Suppress, '{}:"[]')
DBLQ2 = DBLQ + DBLQ
# define some scalar value expressions, including parse-time conversion parse actions
realnum = Regex(r'[+-]?\d+\.\d*').setParseAction(lambda t:float(t[0]))
integer = Regex(r'[+-]?\d+').setParseAction(lambda t:int(t[0]))
timestamp = Regex(r'""\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}T\d{2}:\d{2}""')
timestamp.setParseAction(lambda t: datetime.strptime(t[0][2:-2],'%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M'))
string_value = QuotedString('""')
# define our base key ':' value expression; use a Forward() placeholder
# for now for value, since these things can be recursive
key = Optional(DBLQ2) + Word(alphas, alphanums+'_') + DBLQ2
value = Forward()
key_value = Group(key + COLON + value)
# objects can be values too - use the Dict class to capture keys as field names
obj = Group(Dict(LBRACE + OneOrMore(key_value) + RBRACE))
objlist = (LBRACK + ZeroOrMore(obj) + RBRACK)
# define expression for previously-declared value, using <<= operator
value <<= timestamp | string_value | realnum | integer | obj | Group(objlist)
# the outermost objects are enclosed in "s, and list of them can be given with '|' delims
quotedObj = DBLQ + obj + DBLQ
obsList = delimitedList(quotedObj, delim='|')
现在将该解析器应用于您的“数据”：
fields = data.split('|',4)
result = obsList.parseString(fields[-1])
# we get back a list of objects, dump them out
for r in result:
print r.dump()
print

请注意，不是字符串的值（整数、时间戳等）已经转换为 Python 类型。由于字段名称保存为 dict 键，因此您可以按名称访问字段，如下所示：
res[0].currency
res[0].price
res[0].destination
res[0].flight_segment[0].origin
len(res[0].flight_segment) # gives how many segments
