Summary
As mentioned in the issue, the CPython api for
json.dumpandjson.dumpsallows for the named argumentdefaultto be provided. It is a callable type that specifies a way for non-serializable objects to be serialized. This patch series adds support for this argument in Micropython along with the documentation update and extending tests to cover the new argument.CPython reference: https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html
default (callable | None) – A function that is called for objects that can’t otherwise be serialized. It should return a JSON encodable version of the object or raise a TypeError. If None (the default), TypeError is raised.
Fixes: #16963
Testing
Tested on the Unix port.
