dict-utils

dict-utils is a set of utilities and accessory methods usable with Python dicts.

Examples

1. Search for a value in a dictionary, passing a key:

   from dict_utils import dict_utils
   
   dict_1 = {'first_level': {'second_level': {'name': 'Joe', 'age': 30}}}
   found_value = dict_utils.dict_search_value(dict_1, 'name')

   found_value will contain 'Joe'

2. Compare two different dictionaries having the same keys

   from dict_utils import dict_utils
   
   dict_1 = {'first_level': {'second_level': {'name': 'Joe', 'age': 30}}}
   dict_2 = {'level_1': {'level_2': {'name': 'Joe', 'age': 30}}}
   dict_utils.compare_assert_dicts(self, ['name', 'age'], dict_1, dict_2)
