dictdot 1.3.1

Python dict accessible by dot.

Python dict accessible by dot.

Usage:

from dictdot import dictdot

d = dictdot()

d["a"] = 1
assert d["a"] == d.a

d.b = 2
assert d["b"] == d.b

# builtin attributes are not overriden.
d.items = "foo"
assert d.items != d["items"]
assert hasattr(d.items, "__call__")

# d["NA"] will raise KeyError, but
assert d.NA is None

# delete by attribute name.
del d.b
assert "b" not in d.keys()

# `copy` method returns a dictdot.
d2 = d.copy()
assert d2 == d
assert type(d2) is dictdot

# nested dicts are also dictdot.
d = dictdot(
    a={"x": 0},
    b=[{"y": 1}],
)
assert d.a.x == d.a["x"] == d["a"].x
assert d.b[0].y == d["b"][0]["y"]

# even when added after init. non-dict values are not modified.
d.c = [{"z": 2}, 2]
assert d.c[0].z == d.c[1]

# recursive dicts still work.
d.c.append(d)
assert d == d.c[-1] == d.c[-1].c[-1]
