Helpful utilities for open source developers

hu.object_dict

Transforms a dict to allow attribute access to keys that conform with Python syntax for names. Names that conflict with built-in dict attributes must be accessed using subscripting as standard.

from hu.object_dict import ObjectDict
od = ObjectDict({"a": [{"first": "result"}]})
assert od.a[0].first == "result"

hu.dotted_dict

Allows access to dictionary-like structures using string keys whose components can be attribute names or integer keys.

from hu import DottedDict
dd = DottedDict({"first": {"second": [{}, {}, {"third": "bingo"}]}})
assert dd["first.second[2].third"] == "bingo"
