I have a variable value in lower case and the same value is in one of the dictionary keys how do I f-CodePudding

i have document_title variable value with lowercase letters and same value is in the dic keys with upercase letter


TITLE_MAP = {
    'AUS Marketing Consent': "DOCUMENT_TYPE_MARKETING_CONSENT",
    'Consent & History': "DOCUMENT_TYPE_CONSENT",
}

document_title = 'aus marketing consent'

if i do this won't work with me

if document_title in TITLE_MAP.keys():
   return True

I want to fulfill the condition even with the difference

CodePudding user response：

You can use the casefold method to do string comparison. Since you want to apply it to all the keys, you can use a list comprehension.

if document_title.casefold() in [x.casefold() for x in TITLE_MAP.keys()]:
    print(True)

Hope this helps.

CodePudding user response：

if document_title.upper() in TITLE_MAP.key():
   return True

CodePudding user response：

Maybe it's overkill but you can try this solution :

if document_title.lower() in {k.lower() for k in TITLE_MAP.keys()}:
    print(True)

It lowers every keys from your dictionnary

CodePudding user response：

The two strings must be in the same case. You have to convert all keys to lowercase. Try the code below

TITLE_MAP = {
    'AUS Marketing Consent': "DOCUMENT_TYPE_MARKETING_CONSENT",
    'Consent & History': "DOCUMENT_TYPE_CONSENT",
}

TITLE_MAP = {k.lower(): v for k, v in TITLE_MAP.items()}

document_title = 'aus marketing consent'

if document_title.lower() in TITLE_MAP:
    print(True)
