As a developer, you may sometimes need to send complex object hierarchies over a network or save the internal state of your objects to a disk or database for later use. To accomplish this, you can use a process called serialization, which is fully supported by the standard library thanks to the Python pickle
module.
In this course, you’ll learn:
- What it means to serialize and deserialize an object
- Which modules you can use to serialize objects in Python
- Which kinds of objects can be serialized with the Python
pickle
module - How to use the Python
pickle
module to serialize object hierarchies - What the risks are when deserializing an object from an untrusted source
