# Export to basic datatype
dist_instance = libSerialization.export_dict(foo)
new_dict = libSerialization.import_dict(dist_instance)

# Export to json
path_json = '/tmp/test.json'
libSerialization.export_json_file(path_json, foo)
new_json = libSerialization.import_json_file(path_json)

# Export to maya network datatypes
network = libSerialization.export_network(foo)
new_maya = libSerialization.import_network(network)
