我有一本嵌套的字典。是否只有一种方法可以安全地传递价值观?

try:
    example_dict['key1']['key2']
except KeyError:
    pass

或者python有一个类似get()的方法用于嵌套字典?

我的实现下降到子字典,忽略None值,但失败与TypeError如果发现任何其他

def deep_get(d: dict, *keys, default=None):
    """ Safely get a nested value from a dict

    Example:
        config = {'device': None}
        deep_get(config, 'device', 'settings', 'light')
        # -> None
        
    Example:
        config = {'device': True}
        deep_get(config, 'device', 'settings', 'light')
        # -> TypeError

    Example:
        config = {'device': {'settings': {'light': 'bright'}}}
        deep_get(config, 'device', 'settings', 'light')
        # -> 'light'

    Note that it returns `default` is a key is missing or when it's None.
    It will raise a TypeError if a value is anything else but a dict or None.
    
    Args:
        d: The dict to descend into
        keys: A sequence of keys to follow
        default: Custom default value
    """
    # Descend while we can
    try:
        for k in keys:
            d = d[k]
    # If at any step a key is missing, return default
    except KeyError:
        return default
    # If at any step the value is not a dict...
    except TypeError:
        # ... if it's a None, return default. Assume it would be a dict.
        if d is None:
            return default
        # ... if it's something else, raise
        else:
            raise
    # If the value was found, return it
    else:
        return d

在深入获取属性后,我使用点表示法安全地获得嵌套的dict值。这适用于我,因为我的字典是反序列化的MongoDB对象,所以我知道键名不包含.s。此外,在我的上下文中,我可以指定一个数据中没有的虚假回退值(None),因此在调用函数时可以避免使用try/except模式。

from functools import reduce # Python 3
def deepgetitem(obj, item, fallback=None):
    """Steps through an item chain to get the ultimate value.

    If ultimate value or path to value does not exist, does not raise
    an exception and instead returns `fallback`.

    >>> d = {'snl_final': {'about': {'_icsd': {'icsd_id': 1}}}}
    >>> deepgetitem(d, 'snl_final.about._icsd.icsd_id')
    1
    >>> deepgetitem(d, 'snl_final.about._sandbox.sbx_id')
    >>>
    """
    def getitem(obj, name):
        try:
            return obj[name]
        except (KeyError, TypeError):
            return fallback
    return reduce(getitem, item.split('.'), obj)

你可以使用get两次:

example_dict.get('key1', {}).get('key2')

如果key1或key2不存在,则返回None。

注意,如果example_dict['key1']存在但不是dict(或具有get方法的类dict对象),仍然可能引发AttributeError。如果example_dict['key1']不可下标,你发布的try..except代码将引发TypeError。

另一个区别是try…除非在第一次丢失钥匙后立即发生短路。get调用链则不然。


如果您希望保留语法example_dict['key1']['key2'],但不希望它引发KeyErrors,那么您可以使用哈希recipe:

class Hasher(dict):
    # https://stackoverflow.com/a/3405143/190597
    def __missing__(self, key):
        value = self[key] = type(self)()
        return value

example_dict = Hasher()
print(example_dict['key1'])
# {}
print(example_dict['key1']['key2'])
# {}
print(type(example_dict['key1']['key2']))
# <class '__main__.Hasher'>

注意,当缺少一个键时,返回一个空的hash。

因为Hasher是dict的一个子类,你可以像使用dict一样使用Hasher。所有相同的方法和语法都是可用的,哈希器只是以不同的方式对待缺失的键。

你可以像这样把一个普通字典转换成哈希:

hasher = Hasher(example_dict)

并将哈希转换为普通字典一样容易:

regular_dict = dict(hasher)

另一种选择是在helper函数中隐藏丑陋的代码:

def safeget(dct, *keys):
    for key in keys:
        try:
            dct = dct[key]
        except KeyError:
            return None
    return dct

这样你剩下的代码就可以保持相对的可读性:

safeget(example_dict, 'key1', 'key2')

如果您想使用另一个库来解决问题,这是最好的方法

https://github.com/maztohir/dict-path

from dict-path import DictPath

data_dict = {
  "foo1": "bar1",
  "foo2": "bar2",
  "foo3": {
     "foo4": "bar4",
     "foo5": {
        "foo6": "bar6",
        "foo7": "bar7",
     },
  }
}

data_dict_path = DictPath(data_dict)
data_dict_path.get('key1/key2/key3')

你也可以使用python reduce:

def deep_get(dictionary, *keys):
    return reduce(lambda d, key: d.get(key) if d else None, keys, dictionary)

你可以使用pydash:

import pydash as _  #NOTE require `pip install pydash`

_.get(example_dict, 'key1.key2', default='Default')
