python-benedict

python-benedict is a dict subclass with keylist/keypath/keyattr support, I/O shortcuts (base64, cli, csv, html, ini, json, pickle, plist, query-string, toml, xls, xml, yaml) and many utilities... for humans, obviously.

Features

100% backward-compatible, you can safely wrap existing dictionaries.
NEW Keyattr support for get/set items using keys as attributes.
Keylist support using list of keys as key.
Keypath support using keypath-separator (dot syntax by default).
Keypath list-index support (also negative) using the standard [n] suffix.
Normalized I/O operations with most common formats: base64, cli, csv, html, ini, json, pickle, plist, query-string, toml, xls, xml, yaml.
Multiple I/O operations backends: file-system (read/write), url (read-only), s3 (read/write).
Many utility and parse methods to retrieve data as needed (check the API section).
Well tested. ;)

Installation

If you want to install everything:

Run pip install "python-benedict[all]"

alternatively you can install the main package:

Run pip install python-benedict, then install only the optional requirements you need.

Usage

Basics

benedict is a dict subclass, so it is possible to use it as a normal dictionary (you can just cast an existing dict).

from benedict import benedict

# create a new empty instance
d = benedict()

# or cast an existing dict
d = benedict(existing_dict)

# or create from data source (filepath, url or data-string) in a supported format:
# Base64, CSV, JSON, TOML, XML, YAML, query-string
d = benedict("https://localhost:8000/data.json", format="json")

# or in a Django view
params = benedict(request.GET.items())
page = params.get_int("page", 1)

Keyattr

It is possible to get/set items using keys as attributes (dotted notation).

d = benedict(keyattr_dynamic=True) # default False
d.profile.firstname = "Fabio"
d.profile.lastname = "Caccamo"
print(d) # -> { "profile":{ "firstname":"Fabio", "lastname":"Caccamo" } }

By default, if the keyattr_dynamic is not explicitly set to True, this functionality works for get/set only already existing items.

Disable keyattr functionality

You can disable the keyattr functionality passing keyattr_enabled=False option in the constructor.

d = benedict(existing_dict, keyattr_enabled=False) # default True

or using the getter/setter property.

d.keyattr_enabled = False

Dynamic keyattr functionality

You can enable the dynamic attributes access functionality passing keyattr_dynamic=True in the constructor.

d = benedict(existing_dict, keyattr_dynamic=True) # default False

or using the getter/setter property.

d.keyattr_dynamic = True

Warning - even if this feature is very useful, it has some obvious limitations: it works only for string keys that are unprotected (not starting with an _) and that don't clash with the currently supported methods names.

Keylist

Wherever a key is used, it is possible to use also a list of keys.

d = benedict()

# set values by keys list
d[["profile", "firstname"]] = "Fabio"
d[["profile", "lastname"]] = "Caccamo"
print(d) # -> { "profile":{ "firstname":"Fabio", "lastname":"Caccamo" } }
print(d["profile"]) # -> { "firstname":"Fabio", "lastname":"Caccamo" }

# check if keypath exists in dict
print([["profile", "lastname"]] in d) # -> True

# delete value by keys list
del d[["profile", "lastname"]]
print(d["profile"]) # -> { "firstname":"Fabio" }

Keypath

. is the default keypath separator.

If you cast an existing dict and its keys contain the keypath separator a ValueError will be raised.

In this case you should use a custom keypath separator or disable keypath functionality.

d = benedict()

# set values by keypath
d["profile.firstname"] = "Fabio"
d["profile.lastname"] = "Caccamo"
print(d) # -> { "profile":{ "firstname":"Fabio", "lastname":"Caccamo" } }
print(d["profile"]) # -> { "firstname":"Fabio", "lastname":"Caccamo" }

# check if keypath exists in dict
print("profile.lastname" in d) # -> True

# delete value by keypath
del d["profile.lastname"]

Custom keypath separator

You can customize the keypath separator passing the keypath_separator argument in the constructor.

If you pass an existing dict to the constructor and its keys contain the keypath separator an Exception will be raised.

d = benedict(existing_dict, keypath_separator="/")

Change keypath separator

You can change the keypath_separator at any time using the getter/setter property.

If any existing key contains the new keypath_separator an Exception will be raised.

d.keypath_separator = "/"

Disable keypath functionality

You can disable the keypath functionality passing keypath_separator=None option in the constructor.

d = benedict(existing_dict, keypath_separator=None)

or using the getter/setter property.

d.keypath_separator = None

List index support

List index are supported, keypaths can include indexes (also negative) using [n], to perform any operation very fast:

# Eg. get last location cordinates of the first result:
loc = d["results[0].locations[-1].coordinates"]
lat = loc.get_decimal("latitude")
lng = loc.get_decimal("longitude")

I/O

For simplifying I/O operations, benedict supports a variety of input/output methods with most common formats: base64, cli, csv, html, ini, json, pickle, plist, query-string, toml, xls, xml, yaml.

Input via constructor

It is possible to create a benedict instance directly from data-source (filepath, url, s3 or data string) by passing the data source and the data format (optional, default "json") in the constructor.

# filepath
d = benedict("/root/data.yml", format="yaml")

# url
d = benedict("https://localhost:8000/data.xml", format="xml")

# s3
d = benedict("s3://my-bucket/data.xml", s3_options={"aws_access_key_id": "...", "aws_secret_access_key": "..."})

# data
d = benedict('{"a": 1, "b": 2, "c": 3, "x": 7, "y": 8, "z": 9}')

Input methods

All input methods can be accessed as class methods and are prefixed by from_* followed by the format name.
In all input methods, the first argument can represent a source: file path, url, s3 url, or data string.

Input sources

All supported sources (file, url, s3, data) are allowed by default, but in certains situations when the input data comes from untrusted sources it may be useful to restrict the allowed sources using the sources argument:

# url
d = benedict("https://localhost:8000/data.json", sources=["url"]) # -> ok
d = benedict.from_json("https://localhost:8000/data.json", sources=["url"]) # -> ok

# s3
d = benedict("s3://my-bucket/data.json", sources=["url"]) # -> raise ValueError
d = benedict.from_json("s3://my-bucket/data.json", sources=["url"]) # -> raise ValueError

Output methods

All output methods can be accessed as instance methods and are prefixed by to_* followed by the format name.
In all output methods, if filepath="..." kwarg is specified, the output will be also saved at the specified filepath.

Utility methods

These methods are common utilities that will speed up your everyday work.

Utilities that accept key argument(s) also support keypath(s).

Utilities that return a dictionary always return a new benedict instance.

`clean`

# Clean the current dict instance removing all empty values: None, "", {}, [], ().
# If strings or collections (dict, list, set, tuple) flags are False,
# related empty values will not be deleted.
d.clean(strings=True, collections=True)

`clone`

# Return a clone (deepcopy) of the dict.
c = d.clone()

`dump`

# Return a readable representation of any dict/list.
# This method can be used both as static method or instance method.
s = benedict.dump(d.keypaths())
print(s)
# or
d = benedict()
print(d.dump())

`filter`

# Return a filtered dict using the given predicate function.
# Predicate function receives key, value arguments and should return a bool value.
predicate = lambda k, v: v is not None

`find`

# Return the first match searching for the given keys/keypaths.
# If no result found, default value is returned.
keys = ["a.b.c", "m.n.o", "x.y.z"]
f = d.find(keys, default=0)

`flatten`

# Return a new flattened dict using the given separator to join nested dict keys to flatten keypaths.
f = d.flatten(separator="_")

`groupby`

# Group a list of dicts at key by the value of the given by_key and return a new dict.
g = d.groupby("cities", by_key="country_code")

`invert`

# Return an inverted dict where values become keys and keys become values.
# Since multiple keys could have the same value, each value will be a list of keys.
# If flat is True each value will be a single value (use this only if values are unique).
i = d.invert(flat=False)

`items_sorted_by_keys`

# Return items (key/value list) sorted by keys.
# If reverse is True, the list will be reversed.
items = d.items_sorted_by_keys(reverse=False)

`items_sorted_by_values`

# Return items (key/value list) sorted by values.
# If reverse is True, the list will be reversed.
items = d.items_sorted_by_values(reverse=False)

`keypaths`

# Return a list of all keypaths in the dict.
# If indexes is True, the output will include list values indexes.
k = d.keypaths(indexes=False)

`match`

# Return a list of all values whose keypath matches the given pattern (a regex or string).
# If pattern is string, wildcard can be used (eg. [*] can be used to match all list indexes).
# If indexes is True, the pattern will be matched also against list values.
m = d.match(pattern, indexes=True)

`merge`

# Merge one or more dictionary objects into current instance (deepupdate).
# Sub-dictionaries keys will be merged together.

# using the specified keys to establish the correct items hierarchy.
d.nest("values", id_key="id", parent_id_key="parent_id", children_key="children")

`remove`

# Remove multiple keys from the dict.
# It is possible to pass a single key or more keys (as list or *args).
d.remove(["firstname", "lastname", "email"])

`rename`

s = d.subset(["firstname", "lastname", "email"])

`swap`

# Swap items values at the given keys.
d.swap("firstname", "lastname")

`traverse`

# Traverse a dict passing each item (dict, key, value) to the given callback function.
def f(d, key, value):
    print(f"dict: {d} - key: {key} - value: {value}")
d.traverse(f)

`unflatten`

# Return a new unflattened dict using the given separator to split dict keys to nested keypaths.
