FlatDict
========
|Version| |Status| |Coverage| |License|
``FlatDict`` and ``FlatterDict`` are a dict classes that allows for single level,
delimited key/value pair mapping of nested dictionaries. You can interact with
``FlatDict`` and ``FlatterDict`` like a normal dictionary and access child
dictionaries as you normally would or with the composite key.
*For example:*
.. code-block:: python
value = flatdict.FlatDict({'foo': {'bar': 'baz', 'qux': 'corge'}})
*would be the same as:*
.. code-block:: python
value == {'foo:bar': 'baz', 'foo:qux': 'corge'}
*values can be accessed as:*
.. code-block:: python
print(foo['foo:bar'])
# or
print(foo['foo']['bar'])
Additionally, lists and tuples are also converted into dicts using ``enumerate()``,
using the ``FlatterDict`` class.
*For example:*
.. code-block:: python
value = flatdict.FlatterDict({'list': ['a', 'b', 'c']})
*will be the same as:*
.. code-block:: python
value == {'list:0': 'a', 'list:1': 'b', 'list:2': 'c'}
