Many of the programmers might have faced the problem of serializing objects of depth `N` or serializing nested objects. Personally i have also faced such a situation and here is the solution which i found. There may be better implementations of serializing nested objects, but i think this might be helpful for some novices like me.

#! /usr/bin/python
import json


class Reference(object):
    pass


class Engineering(Reference):
   subject = 'ECE'
   college = 'Jyothi Engineering College'

   _serializable_fields = ['subject', 'college']


class Programmer(Reference):
   designation = 'Software Engineer'
   company = 'Scintilla Technologies'

   _serializable_fields = ['designation', 'company']


class Individual(object):
   name = 'Akhil Lawrence'
   age = 23
   job = Programmer()
   education = Engineering()

   _serializable_fields = ['name', 'age', 'job', 'education']


def Serialize(obj, excludes=[]):
   response = dict()
   for attr_name in obj._serializable_fields:
       if attr_name in excludes:
           continue
       else:
           attr = getattr(obj, attr_name)
           if attr and not isinstance(attr, Reference):
               response.update({attr_name: attr})
           elif attr and isinstance(attr, Reference):
               response.update({attr_name: Serialize(attr)})
   return response


def Serializer(objs, excludes=[]):
   response = []
   for obj in objs:
       response.append(Serialize(obj, excludes))
   return response


if __name__ == '__main__':
   objs = [Individual(), Individual()]
   excludes = []
   print json.dumps(Serializer(objs, excludes), indent=4)
