Install

$ pip install -U magicdict

Thread Safety

FrozenMagicDict and its subclasses should be thread safe without additional locking. If any data races occurred, then that’s a bug. Please file an issue with reproducing procedure.

Usage

MagicDict should function like collections.OrderedDict except move_to_end is not defined and d[key] always returns the first item.

FrozenMagicDict is an immutable version of MagicDict.

FrozenTolerantMagicDict and TolerantMagicDict are case-insensitive versions of FrozenMagicDict and MagicDict respectively.

get_first, get_last, get_iter, and get_list: These methods are available in FrozenMagicDict and its subclasses. For more details, please read the comments of each method.

add: Method add is available in MagicDict and TolerantMagicDict. This method is used as an substitution of dic[key] = value as it can append a value to the dictionary without removing the existing one. Setting values like normal OrderedDict will clear the stored value(s) if any.
