SUGGESTION: string version of sequence of attributes #298
Description
The following piece of code could be added in the source code, which allows using myboxobj("a.b.c.d") instead of myboxobj.a.b.c.d. This simplifies some dynamic coding.
#!/usr/bin/env python3 from box import Box # ---------------------- # # -- BETTER BOX CLASS -- # # ---------------------- # ### # We make the class Box callable to allow the use of virtual # pointed paths. ### class BoxPlus(Box): ### # prototype:: # content : a pointed path similar to a sequence of # attribute request. # # :return: the expected value. ### def __call__( self, str_attrs ): val = self for n in str_attrs.split('.'): val = getattr(val, n) return val
