I have a custom Python class that extends the 'dict' built-in type.
########################################################################
class ServiceParametersNew(dict):
""""""
_allowed = ['maxRecordCount', 'tables',
'allowGeometryUpdates', 'supportsDisconnectedEditing',
'description', 'name', 'xssPreventionInfo',
'hasStaticData', 'capabilities', 'copyrightText',
'currentVersion', 'size', 'hasVersionedData',
'units', 'syncEnabled', 'supportedQueryFormats',
'editorTrackingInfo', 'serviceDescription']
_editorTrackingInfo = {
"enableEditorTracking": True,
"enableOwnershipAccessControl": False,
"allowOthersToUpdate": True,
"allowOthersToDelete": True}
_xssPreventionInfo = {
"xssPreventionEnabled": True,
"xssPreventionRule": "InputOnly",
"xssInputRule": "rejectInvalid"}
_tables = []
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
def __str__(self):
"""returns object as string"""
val = {}
for a in self._allowed:
if a in self.__dict__:
val[a] = self.__getitem__(a)
val['table'] = self._tables
val['xssPreventionInfo'] = self._xssPreventionInfo
val['editorTrackingInfo'] = self._editorTrackingInfo
return json.dumps(val)
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
def __getitem__(self, key):
if key.lower() in [a.lower() for a in self._allowed]:
return self.__dict__[key]
raise Exception("Invalid parameter requested")
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
def __setitem__(self, index, value):
self.__dict__[index] = value
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
@property
def xssPreventionInfo(self):
"""gets the xssPreventionInfo"""
return self._xssPreventionInfo
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
@property
def editorTrackingInfo(self):
"""gets the editorTrackingInfo settings"""
return self._editorTrackingInfo
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
def updateXssPreventionInfo(self, xssPreventionEnabled=True,
xssPreventionRule="InputOnly",
xssInputRule="rejectInvalid"):
"""updates the xss prevention information"""
self._xssPreventionInfo = {
"xssPreventionEnabled": True,
"xssPreventionRule": "InputOnly",
"xssInputRule": "rejectInvalid"
}
#----------------------------------------------------------------------
def updateEditorTrackingInfo(self,
enableEditorTracking=True,
enableOwnershipAccessControl=False,
allowOthersToUpdate=True,
allowOthersToDelete=True
):
"""updates the editor tracking information"""
self._editorTrackingInfo = {
"enableEditorTracking": enableEditorTracking,
"enableOwnershipAccessControl": enableOwnershipAccessControl,
"allowOthersToUpdate": allowOthersToUpdate,
"allowOthersToDelete": allowOthersToDelete
}
The class basically is going to check if a value is in the allowed dictionary if it is, it is entered into the value.
I figured since I inherited from dict, I could use json.dumps(<object>)
to dump the class to a string value.
Do I have to override another function to get this working?
You misunderstand __dict__
- it's not a place for data of dict
, it's a place where attributes are stored for most classes. For example:
>>> class A(dict):
... def __init__(self):
... dict.__init__(self)
... self.x = 123
...
>>> a=A()
>>> a.__dict__
{'x': 123}
So, a.__dict__['x']
is often (but not always) the same as ax
.
As a general rule: do not use __dict__ unless you really love dark forbidden magicks .
To make your class work and happily serialize into json, just use dict.__getitem__
as with any ordinary superclass method call.
class ExtendedDict(dict):
_allowed = ['a', 'b']
def __getitem__(self, key):
if key.lower() in [a.lower() for a in self._allowed]:
# Just call superclass method
return dict.__getitem__(self, key)
raise Exception("Invalid parameter requested")
d = ExtendedDict()
d['a'] = 1
d['b'] = 2
import json, sys
sys.stdout.write(json.dumps(d))
This will print:
{"a": 1, "b": 2}
