Project description
print-dict
Motivation
Apparently, pretty-printing nested python dictionaries with values such as classes and functions (where you can't use json.dumps
) is
not as straightforward as you would think.
See: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3229419/how-to-pretty-print-nested-dictionaries
This library tries to make it a little bit easier.
Install or Upgrade
$ pip install -U print-dict
Usage
from print_dict import pd
pd({'key': 'value'})
# ------------------------
# Output:
# {
# 'key': 'value'
# }
# ------------------------
# Or
from print_dict import print_dict
print_dict({'key': 'value'})
# Get the string without printing
from print_dict import format_dict
string = format_dict({'key': 'value'})
Example 1
Code:
from print_dict import pd
dict1 = {
'key': 'value'
}
pd(dict1)
Output:
{
'key': 'value'
}
Example 2
Code:
from print_dict import pd
class Object1:
pass
class Object2:
def __repr__(self):
return "<Object2 info>"
def custom_method():
pass
object1 = Object1()
data = {
"one": "value-one",
"two": "value-two",
"three": "value-three",
"four": {
'1': '1', '2': '2', '3': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], '4': {
'method': custom_method,
'tuple': (1, 2),
'unicode': u'\u2713',
'ten': 'value-ten',
'eleven': 'value-eleven',
'3': [1, 2, 3, 4]
}
},
"object1": object1,
"object2": Object2(),
"class": Object1
}
pd(data)
Output:
{
'one': 'value-one',
'two': 'value-two',
'three': 'value-three',
'four': {
'1': '1',
'2': '2',
'3': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
'4': {
'method': <function custom_method at 0x7ff6ecd03e18>,
'tuple': (1, 2),
'unicode': '✓',
'ten': 'value-ten',
'eleven': 'value-eleven',
'3': [1, 2, 3, 4]
}
},
'object1': <__main__.Object1 object at 0x7ff6ecc588d0>,
'object2': <Object2 info>,
'class': <class '__main__.Object1'>
}
