使用生成器的Python 3.3解决方案:

def flattenit(pyobj, keystring=''):
   if type(pyobj) is dict:
     if (type(pyobj) is dict):
         keystring = keystring + "_" if keystring else keystring
         for k in pyobj:
             yield from flattenit(pyobj[k], keystring + k)
     elif (type(pyobj) is list):
         for lelm in pyobj:
             yield from flatten(lelm, keystring)
   else:
      yield keystring, pyobj

my_obj = {'a': 1, 'c': {'a': 2, 'b': {'x': 5, 'y': 10}}, 'd': [1, 2, 3]}

#your flattened dictionary object
flattened={k:v for k,v in flattenit(my_obj)}
print(flattened)

# result: {'c_b_y': 10, 'd': [1, 2, 3], 'c_a': 2, 'a': 1, 'c_b_x': 5}

我正在考虑UserDict的一个子类来自动神奇地平键。

class FlatDict(UserDict):
    def __init__(self, *args, separator='.', **kwargs):
        self.separator = separator
        super().__init__(*args, **kwargs)

    def __setitem__(self, key, value):
        if isinstance(value, dict):
            for k1, v1 in FlatDict(value, separator=self.separator).items():
                super().__setitem__(f"{key}{self.separator}{k1}", v1)
        else:
            super().__setitem__(key, value)

‌ 优点是键可以动态添加，或者使用标准字典实例化，毫无疑问:

‌

>>> fd = FlatDict(
...    {
...        'person': {
...            'sexe': 'male', 
...            'name': {
...                'first': 'jacques',
...                'last': 'dupond'
...            }
...        }
...    }
... )
>>> fd
{'person.sexe': 'male', 'person.name.first': 'jacques', 'person.name.last': 'dupond'}
>>> fd['person'] = {'name': {'nickname': 'Bob'}}
>>> fd
{'person.sexe': 'male', 'person.name.first': 'jacques', 'person.name.last': 'dupond', 'person.name.nickname': 'Bob'}
>>> fd['person.name'] = {'civility': 'Dr'}
>>> fd
{'person.sexe': 'male', 'person.name.first': 'jacques', 'person.name.last': 'dupond', 'person.name.nickname': 'Bob', 'person.name.civility': 'Dr'}

简单的函数来平嵌套字典。对于Python 3，用.items()替换.iteritems()

def flatten_dict(init_dict):
    res_dict = {}
    if type(init_dict) is not dict:
        return res_dict

    for k, v in init_dict.iteritems():
        if type(v) == dict:
            res_dict.update(flatten_dict(v))
        else:
            res_dict[k] = v

    return res_dict

这个想法/要求是: 获取不保留父键的平面字典。

用法示例:

dd = {'a': 3, 
      'b': {'c': 4, 'd': 5}, 
      'e': {'f': 
                 {'g': 1, 'h': 2}
           }, 
      'i': 9,
     }

flatten_dict(dd)

>> {'a': 3, 'c': 4, 'd': 5, 'g': 1, 'h': 2, 'i': 9}

保留父密钥也很简单。

你可以使用递归来平展你的字典。

import collections


def flatten(
    nested_dict,
    seperator='.',
    name=None,
):
    flatten_dict = {}

    if not nested_dict:
        return flatten_dict

    if isinstance(
        nested_dict,
        collections.abc.MutableMapping,
    ):
        for key, value in nested_dict.items():
            if name is not None:
                flatten_dict.update(
                    flatten(
                        nested_dict=value,
                        seperator=seperator,
                        name=f'{name}{seperator}{key}',
                    ),
                )
            else:
                flatten_dict.update(
                    flatten(
                        nested_dict=value,
                        seperator=seperator,
                        name=key,
                    ),
                )
    else:
        flatten_dict[name] = nested_dict

    return flatten_dict


if __name__ == '__main__':
    nested_dict = {
        1: 'a',
        2: {
            3: 'c',
            4: {
                5: 'e',
            },
            6: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ],
        },
    }

    print(
        flatten(
            nested_dict=nested_dict,
        ),
    )

输出:

{
   "1":"a",
   "2.3":"c",
   "2.4.5":"e",
   "2.6":[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
}

上面的答案真的很管用。我只是想加上我写的unflatten函数:

def unflatten(d):
    ud = {}
    for k, v in d.items():
        context = ud
        for sub_key in k.split('_')[:-1]:
            if sub_key not in context:
                context[sub_key] = {}
            context = context[sub_key]
        context[k.split('_')[-1]] = v
    return ud

注意:这并没有解释键中已经存在的'_'，就像扁平化的对应物一样。

基本上与平铺嵌套列表的方法相同，您只需要做额外的工作，按键/值迭代字典，为新字典创建新键，并在最后一步创建字典。

import collections

def flatten(d, parent_key='', sep='_'):
    items = []
    for k, v in d.items():
        new_key = parent_key + sep + k if parent_key else k
        if isinstance(v, collections.MutableMapping):
            items.extend(flatten(v, new_key, sep=sep).items())
        else:
            items.append((new_key, v))
    return dict(items)

>>> flatten({'a': 1, 'c': {'a': 2, 'b': {'x': 5, 'y' : 10}}, 'd': [1, 2, 3]})
{'a': 1, 'c_a': 2, 'c_b_x': 5, 'd': [1, 2, 3], 'c_b_y': 10}

对于Python >= 3.3，将导入更改为from collections。abc导入MutableMapping以避免弃用警告和更改集合。MutableMapping变成MutableMapping。
