MappingTools

Do stuff with Mappings and more

This library provides utility functions for creating, manipulating, and transforming data structures, which have or include Mapping-like characteristics.

Including inverting dictionaries, converting class-like objects to dictionaries, creating nested defaultdicts, and unwrapping complex objects.

🚀 Why use MappingTools?

Built for developers who need more than just standard dictionaries.

Problem	Solution
Boilerplate Reduction	Use Dictifier to broadcast method calls to a collection of objects (users.greet() instead of a for loop).
Deep JSON Diffing	Use flatten() to collapse nested JSON into single-layer paths for easy comparison.
Data Collisions	Use inverse() to swap keys/values without losing data (automatically creates sets for duplicates).
Slow Config Loading	Use MeteredDict to profile exactly how many times your app reads specific config keys.
Quick Serialization	Use simplify() to instantly convert Dataclasses, DateTime, and custom objects into pure Dicts.
Complex Grouping	Use reshape() to pivot lists of dicts into N-dimensional nested dictionaries (tensors).
Key Remapping	Use rename() or rekey() to transform dictionary keys using functions or maps.
Multi-Dimensional Counting	Use CategoryCollector to aggregate data into multiple buckets simultaneously (e.g., by type AND by status).
Safe Deep Modification	Use Lens to immutably update nested values without cloning the entire structure manually.
