Clict

Python Dict with classlike access to its contents (dot.notation,creates missing keys on the fly,...)

Dict VS Clict:

Creation & Initialisation:

Dict only one step:

x={'y': 'z'}

or

x=dict(y=z)

Clict you need to call the class first:

a=Clict()

Then these work:

a.b='c' 				
	# or
a['b']= 'c'
# you can call the class and populate when doing so,
Clict(a=1, b=2) 

note: this works recursively if the key doesnt exist for that Clict , its created as a new Clict so this works for initializing deeply nested 'dicts' :

a=Clict()
a.b.c.d.e.f.g.h.i.j=''

Usage:

you can both assign and recall values by the dot notation as with the conventional dict square brackets, and they can be mixed in a single lookup, However where you can create a dict with

a={}

Clict unfortunatly cannot be a drop in replacement for dicts as the only way to create one is by calling the Class on it. Then you can assign values to keys in it.

a=Clict(
)
