When I print $ dict of myobject, it return:
{'string': u'abc', 'object': <DEMO.Detail object at 0xb5b691ac>}
I want return an dict of myobject and all object inside my object change to dict too:
{'string': u'abc', 'object': {'obj_string': u'xyz', 'obj_object': {...}}}
Please give me some help about this.
Thanks
If you are the creator of DEMO.Detail
, you could add __repr__
and __str__
methods:
class Detail:
def __str__(self):
return "string shown to users (on str and print)"
def __repr__(self):
return "string shown to developers (at REPL)"
This will cause your object to function this way:
>>> d = Detail()
>>> d
string shown to developers (at REPL)
>>> print(d)
string shown to users (on str and print)
In your case I assume you'll want to call dict(self)
inside __str__
.
If you do not control the object, you could setup a recursive printing function that checks whether the object is of a known container type ( list
, tuple
, dict
, set
) and recursively calls iterates through these types, printing all of your custom types as appropriate.
There should be a way to override pprint
with a custom PrettyPrinter . I've never done this though.
Lastly, you could also make a custom JSONEncoder that understands your custom types. This wouldn't be a good solution unless you actually need a JSON format.
Could prettyprint do it?
>>> import pprint
>>> a = {'foo':{'bar':'yeah'}}
>>> pprint.pprint(a)
{'foo': {'bar': 'yeah'}}
If your objects have __repr__
implemented, it can also print those.
import pprint
class Cheetah:
def __repr__(self):
return "chirp"
zoo = {'cage':{'animal':Cheetah()}}
pprint.pprint(zoo)
# Output: {'cage': {'animal': chirp}}
