from box import Box my_box = Box(key="value") print(my_box.key) # value
That is the equivalent of the following dictionary:
my_dict = dict(key="value") print(my_dict["key"]) # value
Keep in mind, at any time you can also access or modify the Box in the same manor as a dictionary.
print(my_box["key"]) # value
my_box = Box({"team": {"red": {"leader": "Sarge", "members": []}}})
print(my_box.team.red.leader)
# Sarge
Any time a dict or list is added to the Box, it is also updated to a Box or BoxList
my_box.team.blue = {"leader": "Church", "members": []}
print(repr(my_box.team.blue))
# <Box: {'leader': 'Church', 'members': []}> Access Boxes Inside Lists
my_box.team.red.members = [
{"name": "Grif", "rank": "Minor Junior Private Negative First Class"},
{"name": "Dick Simmons", "rank": "Captain"}
]
print(my_box.team.red.members[0].name)
# Grif
