implicitdict

This library primarily provides the ImplicitDict base class which enables the inheriting class to implicitly be treated like a dict with entries corresponding to the fields of the inheriting class. Simple example:

class MyData(ImplicitDict):
    foo: str
    bar: int = 0
    baz: Optional[float]

data: MyData = ImplicitDict.parse({'foo': 'asdf', 'bar': 1}, MyData)
assert json.dumps(data) == '{"foo": "asdf", "bar": 1}'

See class documentation for ImplicitDict and test_normal_usage.py for more information.
