modifiable-items-dict

A simple, fast, typed, and tested implementation for a python3.6+ Modifiable Items dictionary. ModifiableItemsDict extends dict with the ability to modify key's and value's on creation, insertion, and retrieval. This class extends and maintains the original functionality of the builtin dict.

Key Features:

• Easy: Flexable and easy to add Key and/or Value modifiers to the ModifiableItemsDict
• Great Developer Experience: Being fully typed makes it great for editor support.
• Fully Tested: Our test suit fully tests the functionality to ensure that ModifiableItemsDict runs as expected.
• There is More!!!:
  • CaselessDict: CaselessDict extends ModifiableItemsDict which is a CaselessDict which ignores the case of the keys.

Installation

pip install modifiable-items-dictionary

Simple Example

from modifiable_items_dict import ModifiableItemsDict


def _lower(_key):
    if isinstance(_key, str):
        _key = _key.lower()
    return _key


def _add_1(_value):
    if isinstance(_value, int):
        _value += 1
    return _value


ModifiableItemsDict._key_modifiers = [_lower]
ModifiableItemsDict._value_modifiers = (_lower, _add_1)
# Or
# ModifiableItemsDict._key_modifiers = staticmethod(_lower)
# ModifiableItemsDict._value_modifiers = [_lower, _add_1]

modifiable_items_dict = ModifiableItemsDict({"lower":1, "UPPER":2 }, CamelCase=3, snake_case="FoUR")

print(modifiable_items_dict) # {'lower': 2, 'upper': 3, 'camelcase': 4, 'snake_case': 'four'}

del modifiable_items_dict["LOWER"]
del modifiable_items_dict["UPPER"]
modifiable_items_dict.pop("SNAKE_CAse")

modifiable_items_dict["HeLLO"] = 5

print(modifiable_items_dict) # {'camelcase': 4, 'hello': 6}

Example

Let's say that there is a .json file that has Url hosts and their IP address. Our Goal is to load the json data into a dictionary like structure that will have it's items modified during creation, insertion, and retrieval. This example highlights how to inherit from ModifiableItemsDict and had key and value modifiers.

import contextlib
import ipaddress
import json
from typing import Any, Union

from modifiable_items_dict import ModifiableItemsDict

def _strip(_value: Any):
    if isinstance(_value, str):
        _value = _value.strip()
        return _value
    return _value


def _case_fold(_value: Any) -> Any:
    if isinstance(_value, str):
        _case_folded_string: str = _value.casefold()
        return _case_folded_string
    return _value

def _to_ipaddress(_value: Any) -> Any:
    if isinstance(_value, str):
        with contextlib.suppress(ValueError):
            _ip_address: Union[
                ipaddress.IPv4Address, ipaddress.IPv6Address
            ] = ipaddress.ip_address(_value)
            return _ip_address

    return _value

class HostDict(ModifiableItemsDict):
    _key_modifiers = [_strip, _case_fold]
    _value_modifiers = [_to_ipaddress]
    # Or
    # _value_modifiers = @staticmethod(_to_ipaddress)

_json: str = '{"  GooGle.com    ": "142.250.69.206", " duckDUCKGo.cOM   ": "52.250.42.157"}'

host_dict: HostDict = json.loads(_json, object_hook=HostDict)

print(host_dict) # {'google.com': IPv4Address('142.250.69.206'), 'duckduckgo.com': IPv4Address('52.250.42.157')}

_old_browser = host_dict.pop("  gOOgle.com  ")
# or 
# del host_dict["   GooGle.com  "]

host_dict["   BrAvE.com   "] = "2600:9000:234c:5a00:6:d0d2:780:93a1"

print(host_dict) # {'duckduckgo.com': IPv4Address('52.250.42.157'), 'brave.com': IPv6Address('2600:9000:234c:5a00:6:d0d2:780:93a1')}

Threading Example

It is easy to add Threading to a ModifiableItemsDict.

NOTE: Since ModifiableItemsDict is not pickable it does not work with Multiprocessing.

from multiprocessing.pool import ThreadPool as Pool
from string import ascii_letters
from time import perf_counter, sleep

from modifiable_items_dict.modifiable_items_dict import ModifiableItemsDict

pool = Pool(10)


def _slow_function(x):
    sleep(.05)
    return x

class TimeDictWithThreading(ModifiableItemsDict):
    _key_modifiers = (_slow_function,)
    _value_modifiers = (_slow_function,)
    _map_function = pool.imap_unordered
    # or if order matters
    # _map_function = pool.imap
    
class TimeDict(ModifiableItemsDict):
    _key_modifiers = (_slow_function,)
    _value_modifiers = (_slow_function,)

iterable = {_letter: _index for _index, _letter in enumerate(ascii_letters)}

# Without Threading
start = perf_counter()
TimeDict(iterable)
end = perf_counter()
print(f"{end - start:.2f} seconds")  # 5.54 seconds

# With Threading
start = perf_counter()
TimeDictWithThreading(iterable)
end = perf_counter()
print(f"{end - start:.2f} seconds")  # 0.64 seconds
