# DictDumper

&emsp; The `dictdumper` project is an open source Python program works as a stream formatted output dumper for `dict`.

- [About](#about)
    * `dictdumper.Dumper`
    * `dictdumper.JSON`
    * `dictdumper.PLIST`
    * `dictdumper.Tree`
    * `dictdumper.XML`
    * `dictdumper.HTML`

### About

&emsp; Currently, it supports following formats --

 - `dictdumper.Dumper` -- abstract base class of all dumpers
 - `dictdumper.JSON` -- dump JavaScript object notation (`JSON`) format file
 - `dictdumper.PLIST` -- dump Apple property list (`PLIST`) format file
 - `dictdumper.Tree` -- dump tree-view text (`TXT`) format file
 - `dictdumper.XML` -- dump extensible markup language (`XML`) file (__base class__)
 - `dictdumper.HTML` -- dump JavaScript file under `Vue.js` framework (__DEPRECATED__)

&nbsp;

### Installation:

> Note that `dictdumper` supports Python versions __2.7__ and all versions __since 3.0__

```
pip install dictdumper
```

&nbsp;

### Usage

&emsp; `dictdumper` is quite easy to use. After installation, importation, and initialisation, you can simple call the instance to dump contents.

> Take `dictdumper.Tree` for example

```python
import dictdumper
dumper = dictdumper.Tree('out.txt')
test_1 = dict(
    foo=-1,
    bar='Hello, world!',
    boo=dict(
        foo_again=True,
        bar_again=memoryview(b'bytes'),
        boo_again=None,
    ),
)
dumper(test_1, name='test_1')
```
```
$ cat out.txt
test_1
  |-- foo -> -1
  |-- bar -> Hello, world!
  |-- boo
        |-- foo_again -> True
        |-- bar_again
        |     |-- type -> memoryview
        |     |-- value -> 62 79 74 65 73
        |     |-- text -> bytes
        |-- boo_again -> NIL
```
```python
import datetime
test_2 = dict(
    foo=[1, 2.0, 3],
    bar=(1.0, bytearray(b'a long long bytes'), 3.0),
    boo=dict(
        foo_again=b'bytestring',
        bar_again=datetime.datetime(2020, 1, 31, 20, 15, 10, 163010),
        boo_again=float('-inf'),
    ),
)
dumper(test_2, name='test_2')
```
```

        |-- boo_again -> -Infinity
