我能想到的最简单的方法是:

#!/usr/bin/python

from copy import deepcopy
def dict_merge(a, b):
    if not isinstance(b, dict):
        return b
    result = deepcopy(a)
    for k, v in b.iteritems():
        if k in result and isinstance(result[k], dict):
                result[k] = dict_merge(result[k], v)
        else:
            result[k] = deepcopy(v)
    return result

a = {1:{"a":'A'}, 2:{"b":'B'}}
b = {2:{"c":'C'}, 3:{"d":'D'}}

print dict_merge(a,b)

输出:

{1: {'a': 'A'}, 2: {'c': 'C', 'b': 'B'}, 3: {'d': 'D'}}

还有一个轻微的变化:

下面是一个纯粹的基于python3集的深度更新函数。它通过一次循环遍历一层来更新嵌套字典，并调用自己来更新下一层的字典值:

def deep_update(dict_original, dict_update):
    if isinstance(dict_original, dict) and isinstance(dict_update, dict):
        output=dict(dict_original)
        keys_original=set(dict_original.keys())
        keys_update=set(dict_update.keys())
        similar_keys=keys_original.intersection(keys_update)
        similar_dict={key:deep_update(dict_original[key], dict_update[key]) for key in similar_keys}
        new_keys=keys_update.difference(keys_original)
        new_dict={key:dict_update[key] for key in new_keys}
        output.update(similar_dict)
        output.update(new_dict)
        return output
    else:
        return dict_update

举个简单的例子:

x={'a':{'b':{'c':1, 'd':1}}}
y={'a':{'b':{'d':2, 'e':2}}, 'f':2}

print(deep_update(x, y))
>>> {'a': {'b': {'c': 1, 'd': 2, 'e': 2}}, 'f': 2}

我还没有对此进行广泛的测试，因此，鼓励您的反馈。

from collections import defaultdict

dict1 = defaultdict(list)

dict2= defaultdict(list)

dict3= defaultdict(list)


dict1= dict(zip(Keys[ ],values[ ]))

dict2 = dict(zip(Keys[ ],values[ ]))


def mergeDict(dict1, dict2):

    dict3 = {**dict1, **dict2}

    for key, value in dict3.items():

        if key in dict1 and key in dict2:

           dict3[key] = [value , dict1[key]]

    return dict3

dict3 = mergeDict(dict1, dict2)

#sort keys alphabetically.

dict3.keys()

合并两个字典并添加公共键的值

我有一个迭代的解决方案-工作得更好的大字典&很多(例如jsons等):

import collections


def merge_dict_with_subdicts(dict1: dict, dict2: dict) -> dict:
    """
    similar behaviour to builtin dict.update - but knows how to handle nested dicts
    """
    q = collections.deque([(dict1, dict2)])
    while len(q) > 0:
        d1, d2 = q.pop()
        for k, v in d2.items():
            if k in d1 and isinstance(d1[k], dict) and isinstance(v, dict):
                q.append((d1[k], v))
            else:
                d1[k] = v

    return dict1

注意，这将使用d2中的值来覆盖d1，以防它们都不是字典。(与python的dict.update()相同)

一些测试:

def test_deep_update():
    d = dict()
    merge_dict_with_subdicts(d, {"a": 4})
    assert d == {"a": 4}

    new_dict = {
        "b": {
            "c": {
                "d": 6
            }
        }
    }
    merge_dict_with_subdicts(d, new_dict)
    assert d == {
        "a": 4,
        "b": {
            "c": {
                "d": 6
            }
        }
    }

    new_dict = {
        "a": 3,
        "b": {
            "f": 7
        }
    }
    merge_dict_with_subdicts(d, new_dict)
    assert d == {
        "a": 3,
        "b": {
            "c": {
                "d": 6
            },
            "f": 7
        }
    }

    # test a case where one of the dicts has dict as value and the other has something else
    new_dict = {
        'a': {
            'b': 4
        }
    }
    merge_dict_with_subdicts(d, new_dict)
    assert d['a']['b'] == 4

我已经测试了大约1200个字典——这种方法花了0.4秒，而递归的解决方案花了2.5秒。

以下是来自@andrew cooke的回答。 它以更好的方式处理嵌套列表。

下面的函数将b合并为a。

def mergedicts(a, b):
    for key in b:

            mergedicts(a[key], b[key])
