# Classy-JSON ![Code Quality](https://www.codefactor.io/repository/github/iapetus-11/classy-json/badge) ![PYPI Version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/classy-json.svg?color=0FAE6E) ![PYPI Downloads](https://img.shields.io/pypi/dw/classy-json?color=0FAE6E)

*`dict.key` (Dot access) for Python dictionaries*

## How do I use Classy-JSON?

* Classy-JSON can be used nearly identically to the regular built-in json module! [json module docs](https://docs.python.org/3/library/json.html)

* The only differences are that you can now access dictionaries via `dict.key` as well as `dict['key']`, and that the `.copy()` method is now a deep copy.

* What seperates Classy-JSON and its custom data structures from other alternatives? Classy-JSON is both better in its speed and package size, other similiar packages have unecessary code and just aren't as fast as Classy-JSON

## Example Usage

```py

import classyjson as cj

# load data from a json file

with open('tests/test_large.json', 'r') as f:

  data = cj.load(f)

# turn a regular dictionary into a ClassyDict

my_dict = {'a': 'b'}

my_classy_dict = cj.classify(my_dict)

print(my_classy_dict.a)

# or

my_classy_dict = cj.ClassyDict(my_dict)

print(my_classy_dict.a)

# make a new ClassyDict

new_classy_dict = cj.ClassyDict()

new_classy_dict.a = 'b'

```
