我正在寻找一种优雅的方式来获得数据使用属性访问字典与一些嵌套的字典和列表(即javascript风格的对象语法)。

例如:

>>> d = {'a': 1, 'b': {'c': 2}, 'd': ["hi", {'foo': "bar"}]}

应该以这样的方式访问:

>>> x = dict2obj(d)
>>> x.a
1
>>> x.b.c
2
>>> x.d[1].foo
bar

我想,如果没有递归,这是不可能的,但是有什么更好的方法来获得字典的对象样式呢?


当前回答

>>> def dict2obj(d):
        if isinstance(d, list):
            d = [dict2obj(x) for x in d]
        if not isinstance(d, dict):
            return d
        class C(object):
            pass
        o = C()
        for k in d:
            o.__dict__[k] = dict2obj(d[k])
        return o


>>> d = {'a': 1, 'b': {'c': 2}, 'd': ["hi", {'foo': "bar"}]}
>>> x = dict2obj(d)
>>> x.a
1
>>> x.b.c
2
>>> x.d[1].foo
'bar'

其他回答

让我来解释一下不久前我几乎用过的一个解决方案。但首先,我没有这样做的原因可以通过以下代码来说明:

d = {'from': 1}
x = dict2obj(d)

print x.from

给出这个错误:

  File "test.py", line 20
    print x.from == 1
                ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

因为“from”是Python关键字,所以某些字典键是不允许的。


现在我的解决方案允许直接使用字典项的名称来访问它们。但是它也允许你使用“字典语义”。下面是使用示例的代码:

class dict2obj(dict):
    def __init__(self, dict_):
        super(dict2obj, self).__init__(dict_)
        for key in self:
            item = self[key]
            if isinstance(item, list):
                for idx, it in enumerate(item):
                    if isinstance(it, dict):
                        item[idx] = dict2obj(it)
            elif isinstance(item, dict):
                self[key] = dict2obj(item)

    def __getattr__(self, key):
        return self[key]

d = {'a': 1, 'b': {'c': 2}, 'd': ["hi", {'foo': "bar"}]}

x = dict2obj(d)

assert x.a == x['a'] == 1
assert x.b.c == x['b']['c'] == 2
assert x.d[1].foo == x['d'][1]['foo'] == "bar"

我的字典是这样的:

addr_bk = {
    'person': [
        {'name': 'Andrew', 'id': 123, 'email': 'andrew@mailserver.com',
         'phone': [{'type': 2, 'number': '633311122'},
                   {'type': 0, 'number': '97788665'}]
        },
        {'name': 'Tom', 'id': 456,
         'phone': [{'type': 0, 'number': '91122334'}]}, 
        {'name': 'Jack', 'id': 7788, 'email': 'jack@gmail.com'}
    ]
}

可以看到,我已经嵌套了字典和字典列表。 这是因为addr_bk是从使用lwpb.codec转换为python dict的协议缓冲区数据解码的。有可选字段(例如email =>,其中键可能不可用)和重复字段(例如phone =>转换为dict列表)。

我尝试了上述所有建议的解决方案。有些不能很好地处理嵌套字典。其他的则不容易打印对象的详细信息。

只有Dawie Strauss的dic2obj (dict)解决方案最有效。

我已经增强了一点,当找不到钥匙时处理:

# Work the best, with nested dictionaries & lists! :)
# Able to print out all items.
class dict2obj_new(dict):
    def __init__(self, dict_):
        super(dict2obj_new, self).__init__(dict_)
        for key in self:
            item = self[key]
            if isinstance(item, list):
                for idx, it in enumerate(item):
                    if isinstance(it, dict):
                        item[idx] = dict2obj_new(it)
            elif isinstance(item, dict):
                self[key] = dict2obj_new(item)

    def __getattr__(self, key):
        # Enhanced to handle key not found.
        if self.has_key(key):
            return self[key]
        else:
            return None

然后,我用:

# Testing...
ab = dict2obj_new(addr_bk)

for person in ab.person:
  print "Person ID:", person.id
  print "  Name:", person.name
  # Check if optional field is available before printing.
  if person.email:
    print "  E-mail address:", person.email

  # Check if optional field is available before printing.
  if person.phone:
    for phone_number in person.phone:
      if phone_number.type == codec.enums.PhoneType.MOBILE:
        print "  Mobile phone #:",
      elif phone_number.type == codec.enums.PhoneType.HOME:
        print "  Home phone #:",
      else:
        print "  Work phone #:",
      print phone_number.number

最简单的方法是使用collections.namedtuple。

我发现下面的4行代码是最漂亮的,它支持嵌套字典:

def dict_to_namedtuple(typename, data):
    return namedtuple(typename, data.keys())(
        *(dict_to_namedtuple(typename + '_' + k, v) if isinstance(v, dict) else v for k, v in data.items())
    )

输出看起来也会很好:

>>> nt = dict_to_namedtuple('config', {
...     'path': '/app',
...     'debug': {'level': 'error', 'stream': 'stdout'}
... })

>>> print(nt)
config(path='/app', debug=config_debug(level='error', stream='stdout'))

>>> print(nt.debug.level)
'error'
class Struct(dict):
    def __getattr__(self, name):
        try:
            return self[name]
        except KeyError:
            raise AttributeError(name)

    def __setattr__(self, name, value):
        self[name] = value

    def copy(self):
        return Struct(dict.copy(self))

用法:

points = Struct(x=1, y=2)
# Changing
points['x'] = 2
points.y = 1
# Accessing
points['x'], points.x, points.get('x') # 2 2 2
points['y'], points.y, points.get('y') # 1 1 1
# Accessing inexistent keys/attrs 
points['z'] # KeyError: z
points.z # AttributeError: z
# Copying
points_copy = points.copy()
points.x = 2
points_copy.x # 1

这是另一种将字典列表转换为对象的替代方法:

def dict2object(in_dict):
    class Struct(object):
        def __init__(self, in_dict):
            for key, value in in_dict.items():
                if isinstance(value, (list, tuple)):
                    setattr(
                        self, key,
                        [Struct(sub_dict) if isinstance(sub_dict, dict)
                         else sub_dict for sub_dict in value])
                else:
                    setattr(
                        self, key,
                        Struct(value) if isinstance(value, dict)
                        else value)
    return [Struct(sub_dict) for sub_dict in in_dict] \
        if isinstance(in_dict, list) else Struct(in_dict)
