websockets.py send_json() doesnt' allow custom encoder

[amalizzio]

I recently switched from django to fastapi and django allows in most places to pass custom encoder .

I have datetimes in objects and nan's which need special treatment.

My workaround is json.dumps(json.loads(deep_dictionary,cls=MyEncoder)) which is not efficient.

Should you pass through in send_json a custom encoder to the json.dumps please?

Thank you,

Anthony

For the time being, the way to do it is to implement the logic of send_json yourself i.e. call WebSocket.send().
