API Reference

Method	Description
clear()	Removes all elements from the dictionary.
copy()	Returns a copy of the dictionary.
get(key, default)	Returns the value (case-insensitively), of the item specified with the key. Falls back to the default value if the specified key does not exist.
fromkeys(iterable, value)	Returns a dictionary with the specified keys and the specified value.
keys()	Returns the dictionary's keys.
values()	Returns the dictionary's values.
items()	Returns the key-value pairs.
pop(key)	Remove the specified item (case-insensitively). The value of the removed item is the return value.
popitem()	Remove the last item that was inserted into the dictionary. For Python version <3.7, popitem() removes a random item.

Example

CaseInsensitiveDict:

>>> from typing import Union

>>> from case_insensitive_dict import CaseInsensitiveDict

>>> case_insensitive_dict = CaseInsensitiveDict[Union[str, int], str](data={"Aa": "b", 1: "c"})
>>> case_insensitive_dict["aa"]
'b'
>>> case_insensitive_dict[1]
'c'

which also supports json encoding/decoding:

>>> import json

>>> from case_insensitive_dict import CaseInsensitiveDict, CaseInsensitiveDictJSONEncoder, case_insensitive_dict_json_decoder

>>> case_insensitive_dict = CaseInsensitiveDict[str, str](data={"Aa": "b"})
>>> json_string = json.dumps(obj=case_insensitive_dict, cls=CaseInsensitiveDictJSONEncoder)
>>> json_string
'{"Aa": "b"}'

>>> case_insensitive_dict = json.loads(s=json_string, object_hook=case_insensitive_dict_json_decoder)
>>> case_insensitive_dict
CaseInsensitiveDict({'Aa': 'b'})
