        # python-benedict
        The Python dictionary for humans dealing with evil/complex data.
        
        ## Features
        -   Full **keypath** support *(using the dot syntax by default)*
        -   Many **utility** and **parse methods** to retrieve data as needed *(all methods listed below)*
        -   Give **benediction to dict objects** before they are returned *(they receive benedict casting)*
        -   100% **backward-compatible** *(you can replace existing dicts without pain)*
        
        ## Requirements
        -   Python 2.7, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7
        
        ## Installation
        -   Run `pip install python-benedict`
        
        ## Testing
        -   Run `tox` / `python setup.py test`
        
        ## Usage
        `benedict` is a dict subclass, so it is possible to use it as a normal dict *(you can just cast an existing dict)*.
        
        ### Import
        
        ```python
        from benedict import benedict
        ```
        
        ### Init
        Create a new instance:
        
        ```python
        d = benedict()
        ```
        
        ... or cast an existing `dict`:
        
        ```python
        d = benedict(existing_dict)
        ```
        
        If the existing dict keys contain the keypath separator a `ValueError` will be raised.
        In this case you need to use a [custom keypath separator](#custom-keypath-separator).
        
        ### Keypath
        `.` is the default keypath separator, you can customize it passing the `keypath_separator` argument in the constructor.
        
        ```python
        d = benedict()
        d['profile.firstname'] = 'Fabio'
        d['profile.lastname'] = 'Caccamo'
        print(d) # -> { 'profile':{ 'firstname':'Fabio', 'lastname':'Caccamo' } }
        print(d['profile']) # -> { 'firstname':'Fabio', 'lastname':'Caccamo' }
        print('profile.lastname' in d) # -> True
        ```
        
        #### Custom keypath separator
        
        ```python
        d = benedict(existing_dict, keypath_separator='/')
        ```
        
        ### API
        
        #### Keypath
        
        ```python
        # Return a list of all keypaths in the dict.
        d.keypaths()
        ```
        
        #### Utility
        These methods are common utilities that will speed up your everyday work.
        
        ```python
        # Clean the current dict removing all empty values: None, '', {}, [], ().
        # If strings, dicts or lists flags are False, related empty values will not be deleted.
        d.clean(strings=True, dicts=True, lists=True)
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Return a deepcopy of the dict.
        d.deepcopy()
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Return a readable representation of any dict/list.
        s = benedict.dump(d.keypaths())
        print(s)
        
        # Return a readable representation of the dict for the given key (optional).
        s = d.dump_items(key=None)
        print(s)
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Return a filtered dict using the given predicate function.
        # Predicate function receives key, value arguments and should return a bool value.
        predicate = lambda k, v: v is not None
        d.filter(predicate)
        ```
        
        #### Parse methods
        These methods are wrappers of the `get` method, and they will parse data trying to return it in the expected type.
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as bool.
        # Values like `1`, `true`, `yes`, `on`, `ok` will be returned as `True`.
        d.get_bool(key, default=False)
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list of bool values.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_bool_list(key, default=[], separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as datetime.
        # If format is not specified it will be autodetected.
        # If options and value is in options return value otherwise default.
        d.get_datetime(key, default=None, format=None, options=[])
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list of datetime values.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_datetime_list(key, default=[], format=None, separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as Decimal.
        # If options and value is in options return value otherwise default.
        d.get_decimal(key, default=Decimal('0.0'), options=[])
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list of Decimal values.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_decimal_list(key, default=[], separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as dict.
        # If value is a json string it will be automatically decoded.
        d.get_dict(key, default={})
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as float.
        # If options and value is in options return value otherwise default.
        d.get_float(key, default=0.0, options=[])
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get email by key or keypath and return it.
        # If value is blacklisted it will be automatically ignored.
        # If check_blacklist is False, it will be not ignored even if blacklisted.
        d.get_email(key, default='', options=None, check_blacklist=True)
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list of float values.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_float_list(key, default=[], separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as int.
        # If options and value is in options return value otherwise default.
        d.get_int(key, default=0, options=[])
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list of int values.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_int_list(key, default=[], separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_list(key, default=[], separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get list by key or keypath and return value at the specified index.
        # If separator is specified and list value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_list_item(key, index=0, default=None, separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get phone number by key or keypath and return a dict with different formats (e164, international, national).
        # If country code is specified (alpha 2 code), it will be used to parse phone number correctly.
        d.get_phonenumber(key, country_code=None, default=None)
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as slug.
        # If options and value is in options return value otherwise default.
        d.get_slug(key, default='', options=[])
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list of slug values.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_slug_list(key, default=[], separator=',')
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as string.
        # Encoding issues will be automatically fixed.
        # If options and value is in options return value otherwise default.
        d.get_str(key, default='', options=[])
        ```
        
        ```python
        # Get value by key or keypath trying to return it as list of str values.
        # If separator is specified and value is a string it will be splitted.
        d.get_str_list(key, default=[], separator=',')
        ```
