Creating list of lists from generator object

[t4keheart]

I have a generator object 'results', which when looping through returns a list of dictionaries. I'm trying to convert this into a list of lists, so I can easily loop through and reference each value to be INSERTed into a database. I believe I'm having trouble because this is a generator object, how can I do this?

Consider the following:

def parse(results):
    for r in results:
        print(r)

Results in:

Output:
[{'id': '7229957054', 'repost_of': None, 'name': '1996 Acura Integra', 'url': 'https://monterey.craigslist.org/cto/d/salinas-1996-acura-integra/7229957054.html', 'datetime': '2020-11-12 14:37', 'last_updated': '2020-11-12 14:37', 'price': '$1,000', 'where': 'Salinas', 'has_image': True, 'geotag': None, 'deleted': False}, {'id': '7229839309', 'repost_of': None, 'name': '1990 Acura Integra GS', 'url': 'https://monterey.craigslist.org/cto/d/salinas-1990-acura-integra-gs/7229839309.html', 'datetime': '2020-11-12 11:31', 'last_updated': '2020-11-12 11:31', 'price': '$2,800', 'where': 'Salinas, Ca', 'has_image': True, 'geotag': None, 'deleted': False}]

my function:

def initialParse(results):
    rList = []
    for r in results:
        r_id = str(r['id'])
        r_name = str(r['name'])
        r_url = str(r['url'])
        r_datetime = str(r['datetime'])
        r_updated = str(r['last_updated'])
        r_price = str(r['price'])
        r_where = str(r['where'])
        iList = list(r_id + r_name + r_url + r_datetime + r_updated + r_price + r_where)
        rList.append(iList)
    print(rList)

returns:

Output:
[['7', '2', '2', '9', '9', '5', '7', '0', '5', '4', '1', '9', '9', '6', ' ', 'A', 'c', 'u', 'r', 'a', ' ', 'I', 'n', 't', 'e', 'g', 'r', 'a', 'h', 't', 't', 'p', 's', ':', '/', '/', 'm', 'o', 'n', 't', 'e', 'r', 'e', 'y', '.', 'c', 'r', 'a', 'i', 'g', 's', 'l', 'i', 's', 't', '.', 'o', 'r', 'g', '/', 'c', 't', 'o', '/', 'd', '/', 's', 'a', 'l', 'i', 'n', 'a', 's', '-', '1', '9', '9', '6', '-', 'a', 'c', 'u', 'r', 'a', '-', 'i', 'n', 't', 'e', 'g', 'r', 'a', '/', '7', '2', '2', '9', '9', '5', '7', '0', '5', '4', '.', 'h', 't', 'm', 'l', '2', '0', '2', '0', '-', '1', '1', '-', '1', '2', ' ', '1', '4', ':', '3', '7', '2', '0', '2', '0', '-', '1', '1', '-', '1'...]

Moving the rList.append() out one block gives a list in a list containing ALL entries... I need each result r in it's own list inside a list... like this:

Output:
[['id', 'name', 'url', 'datetime', 'lastupdated', 'price', 'where'], ['id', 'name', 'url', 'datetime', 'lastupdated', 'price', 'where'], ... ]

What am I doing wrong here? Or, is there a simpler way to convert this list of dictionaries from the generator object into a list containing each of the dictionaries values?
