Easydict

========

*EasyDict* allows to access dict values as attributes (works recursively). 

A Javascript-like properties dot notation for python dicts.

INSTALL

=======

::

    

    pip install easydict

USAGE

=====

::

    >>> from easydict import EasyDict as edict

    >>> d = edict({'foo':3, 'bar':{'x':1, 'y':2}})

    >>> d.foo

    3

    >>> d.bar.x

    1

    

    >>> d = edict(foo=3)

    >>> d.foo

    3

Very useful when exploiting parsed JSON content ! 

::

    >>> from easydict import EasyDict as edict

    >>> from simplejson import loads

    >>> j = """{

    "Buffer": 12,

    "List1": [

        {"type" : "point", "coordinates" : [100.1,54.9] },

        {"type" : "point", "coordinates" : [109.4,65.1] },

        {"type" : "point", "coordinates" : [115.2,80.2] },

        {"type" : "point", "coordinates" : [150.9,97.8] }

    ]

    }"""

    >>> d = edict(loads(j))

    >>> d.Buffer

    12

    >>> d.List1[0].coordinates[1]

    54.9

Can set attributes as easily as getting them :

::

    >>> d = EasyDict()

    >>> d.foo = 3

    >>> d.foo

    3

It is still a ``dict`` !

::

    >>> d = EasyDict(log=False)

    >>> d.debug = True

    >>> d.items()

    [('debug', True), ('log', False)]

Instance and class attributes are accessed like usual objects...

::

    >>> class Flower(EasyDict):

    ...     power = 1

    ...

    >>> f = Flower({'height': 12})

    >>> f.power

    1

    >>> f['power']

    1
