getting class attributes in particular order

Question

I'm trying to find a ways to filter & sort the values of a class's attributes in a list.

Here's what I made:

[foo_class.__dict__[key] for key in foo_class.__dict__.keys() if key in my_bar_list]

my_bar_list is a list containing some (not all) of the class attributes, in a special order.

Is there a Pythonic way to sort foo_class attributes in my_bar_list order?

Answer 1

Wouldn't it be simpler to just do:

 [foo_class.__dict__[key] for key in my_bar_list if hasattr(foo_class, key)]

That way you preserve your initial order without having to sort another time.
