NonelessDict

About

NonelessDict is a wrapper around dict that will check if a value is None/empty/False, and not add the key in that case.

The class has a method set_with_strict_none_check() that can be used to set a value and check only for None values.


NonelessOrderedDict is based NonelessDict and OrderedDict, so the order of key insertion is preserved.

Usage

API Reference

Provides frozendict, a simple immutable dictionary.

class cawdrey.nonelessdict.NonelessDict(*args, **kwargs)[source]

A wrapper around dict that will check if a value is None/empty/False, and not add the key in that case. Use the set_with_strict_none_check function to check only for None

clear() → None. Remove all items from D.
copy(**add_or_replace)[source]
dict_cls

alias of builtins.dict

classmethod fromkeys(*args, **kwargs)

Returns a new dict with keys from iterable and values equal to value.

get(k[, d]) → D[k] if k in D, else d. d defaults to None.
items() → a set-like object providing a view on D's items
keys() → a set-like object providing a view on D's keys
pop(k[, d]) → v, remove specified key and return the corresponding value.

If key is not found, d is returned if given, otherwise KeyError is raised.

popitem() → (k, v), remove and return some (key, value) pair

as a 2-tuple; but raise KeyError if D is empty.

set_with_strict_none_check(key, value)[source]
setdefault(k[, d]) → D.get(k,d), also set D[k]=d if k not in D
update([E, ]**F) → None. Update D from mapping/iterable E and F.

If E present and has a .keys() method, does: for k in E: D[k] = E[k] If E present and lacks .keys() method, does: for (k, v) in E: D[k] = v In either case, this is followed by: for k, v in F.items(): D[k] = v

values() → an object providing a view on D's values
