Classy-Json

An attempt at recreating the way json works in JavaScript, but in the Python programming language.

How do I use Classy-Json?

• All functions from the built in json module are supported! json module docs
• The only difference is that you can now access dictionaries via dict.key as well as dict['key']
• Note: using dict.key is about 2-2.5x slower [in some cases] than using dict['key'], however, using dict['key'] is just as fast as in normal Python dictionaries.
• You can also use classyjson.classify(Union[dict, list, actually anything]) to turn a preexisting dictionary or list into a ClassyDict or ClassyList object

Example Usage

import classyjson as cj

# load data from a json file
with open('tests/test_large.json', 'r') as f:
  data = cj.load(f)

# turn a regular dictionary into a ClassyDict
my_dict = {'a': 'b'}
my_classy_dict = cj.classify(my_dict)
# or
my_classy_dict = cj.ClassyDict(my_dict)

# make a new ClassyDict
new_classy_dict = cj.ClassyDict()
