py2store.utils.attr_dict

a data object layer for object attributes

class py2store.utils.attr_dict.AttrMap(arg)

A read-only façade for navigating a JSON-like object using attribute notation. Based on Luciano Ramalho’s “Fluent Python” book.

>>> t = AttrMap({'a': {'b': 2, 'foo': 'bar'}, 'b': [1,2,3]})
>>> t
AttrMap({'a': {'b': 2, 'foo': 'bar'}, 'b': [1, 2, 3]})
>>> t.a
AttrMap({'b': 2, 'foo': 'bar'})
>>> t.a.foo
'bar'
>>> t.b
[1, 2, 3]

py2store.utils.attr_dict.attr_wrap(cls, name=None)

Returns a Mapping class that routes attribute access to keys of mapping.

>>> A = attr_wrap(dict)
>>> t = A({'a_special_attr': 'foo', 'another_attr': 2, # valid identifiers
...        42: [1, 2], '$invalid': 'identifier', 'class': 'is a reserved keyword'})  # not valid identifiers
>>> # verify that we have the attr we want
>>> assert 'a_special_attr' in dir(t)
>>> assert 'another_attr' in dir(t)
>>> # verify that we DO NOT have the attr we DO NOT want
>>> assert 42 not in dir(t)
>>> assert '$invalid' not in dir(t)
>>> assert 'class' not in dir(t)
