Building nested json object

Question

I am getting this short of result when ever function processOutput(output) is called

output = {'LEND': '0', 'LINK': 'Xx', 'REND': '4', 'RULE': ''}

Suppose this function called thrice then result json should look like

{ 'object[0]' : {'LEND': '0', 'LINK': 'Xx', 'REND': '4', 'RULE': ''},
  'object[1]' : {'LEND': '0', 'LINK': 'Xa', 'REND': '3', 'RULE': 'two'},
  'object[2]' : {'LEND': '0', 'LINK': 'Xz', 'REND': '12', 'RULE': ''}
}

so that I can access json values in this way object[0]['LINK'] and so on

def printOutput(self, processed_output):
    #processed_output is output.

Will you please give what you tried ?

You should define a counter and output as globals and appending to output every results.

output = {}
c = 0

def printOutput(self, processed_output):
    global c, output
    output['object[%i]' % c] = processed_output
    c += 1

thanks but it gives NameError: global name 'result' is not defined

Well, I don't see result in any part of the problem question, maybe you'll need to review your code.
