pyrule

Deduplicate a list while keeping the first occurrence and its position — with the one detail set() gets wrong: types are preserved.

Install

pip install pyrule

The problem

list(set([1, 1.0, True]))     # -> [1]        three rows silently become one
dedupe([1, 1.0, True])        # -> [1, 1.0, True]

In Python 1 == 1.0 == True, so naive deduplication loses records. For data coming out of CSV, JSON or a database, those are three different values.

Usage

from pyrule import dedupe, dedupe_key

dedupe(["b", "a", "b"])                  # ['b', 'a']  order kept
dedupe([{"a": 1}, {"a": 1}, {"a": 2}])   # two dicts kept
dedupe_key(1), dedupe_key(1.0)           # ('int', '1'), ('float', '1.0')

Rules

Input Key
str / int / float / bool / None (type name, repr)
anything else canonical JSON, else repr

Order is always preserved and the returned items are the originals, not copies.
