objdict-bf 0.1.0

A custom object dictionary module that allows attribute-style access to dictionary items.

objdict

objdict is a Python module that provides a class for conveniently manipulating dictionaries or dict-based JSON nested structures using attribute-like syntax. It is intended mostly to ease the manipulation of JSON data, web requests responses, configuration files, and more.

Features

• Attribute-style access to dictionary items (e.g., obj.key instead of obj['key']).
• Synchronization with the original dictionary if passed at instantiation.
• Utility methods for recursive conversion of nested structures to and from objdict and dict.
• JSON serialization and deserialization methods for both strings and files.

Installation

pip install objdict-bferrand

Usage

Here's a simple example of how to use objdict:

from objdict import objdict

# Create an objdict with some initial data
data = objdict({'name': 'John', 'age': 30, 'location': 'New York'})

# Access data using attribute-style access
print(data.name)  # Output: John
print(data.age)   # Output: 30

# Modify data
data.age = 31

# Serialize to JSON string
json_string = data.dumps()

# Deserialize from JSON string
new_data = objdict.loads(json_string)

Methods

• to_objdict(): Convert a dictionary to objdict if keys are valid identifiers.
• to_dict(): Convert an objdict to a dictionary, recursively.
• loads(), dumps(): Load from and dump to JSON strings.
• load(), dump(): Load from and dump to JSON files.

... and many more.
