    #hoje = "%s" % (time.strftime("%Y_%m_%d")) 

    jsonreq = json.dumps(code, encoding = 'utf-8')
    req = urllib2.Request(url, jsonreq, {'Content-Type': 'application/json'})
    flight = urllib2.urlopen(req)
    response = flight.read()
    flight.close()
    #print(response)
    print("----------------")


    texto=(response)
    v_file= open("ssaGRU.json" ,"a")

    #hora = time.strftime("%H:%M:%S %Z")
    v_file.write(texto)
    #v_file.write("[%s] Hora do json.\r\n" % (hora)) 
    v_file.close()

    time.sleep(15)

Answer 1

current_time = time.strftime("%H:%M", time.localtime())
v_file = open("ssaGRU.json", "a")
v_file.write(str(current_time) + ': ')
v_file.write(texto + '\n')
v_file.close()

This will print your current time before every line inputted, and adds a an empty line at the end so your data from different times doesn't stay on one line.

You can also add %m.%d.%y to current_time if you need. In case texto isn't a string, make sure you add str(texto).
