<p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 576586 by <a href="/recipes/users/4124829/">David Moss</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/access/">access</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/attribute/">attribute</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/dictionaries/">dictionaries</a>). Revision 2. </p> <p>This recipe allows you to present dictionary based nested data stuctures in your Python code as objects with nested attributes.</p> <p>It provides dot ('.') based attribute lookups, like this :-</p> <pre class="prettyprint"><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; x = d.foo.bar.baz </code></pre> <p>instead of the usual (and longer) Python dictionary syntax lookups :-</p> <pre class="prettyprint"><code>&gt;&gt;&gt; x = d['foo']['bar']['baz'] </code></pre> <p>This recipe saves you <em>lot</em> of typing!</p> <p>For simplicity and readability this particular version show a read only lookup class.</p>
