ValueObject
is a dict
-like object that exposes keys as attributes.
You can use it like a regular dictionary (in fact, it is a subclass
and does not override its __init__
). You can use attribute or item
access to get or set values.
>>> from valueobject import ValueObject
>>> vo = ValueObject(key=1)
>>> vo['key']
1
>>> vo.key
1
>>> vo['key'] += 1
>>> vo.key += 1
>>> vo['key']
3
>>> vo.key
3
- If you need to access a key that is not a valid Python identifier (for example, it includes spaces), use regular dict access.
- All regular
object
,dict
andValueObject
methods will be returned on attribute access. A key such ascopy
needs to be accessed via item access syntax (e.g.valueobject['copy']
).
