Convert irregular list to dictionary-CodePudding

Im trying to convert a list with colons separated elements into a dictionary, but im getting error using dict().

Error example:

ValueError: dictionary update sequence element #0 has length 7; 2 is required

This is an example of the list Im trying to convert:

I would like to get something like:

{"inetnum":"1.1.1.0-1.1.1.255", "netname":"APNIC-LABS"}

What can i do?

Use a regular for loop for readability. Use str.split to split on : into a maximum of 2 elements. Skip strings where no : is found.

If you just want to ignore the list elements that don't follow the key:value format, filter to those that only contain one colon:

Without that if i.count(":") == 1 filter, you get errors on some of the strings because some of them are empty (hence they have length 0 when split) and at least one has three :s (hence it has length 4).

Note that this solution simply ignores those entries rather than trying to make sense of them or raise an error. If you wanted to do something else with the 3-: entries (like split them into two key-value pairs, or allow for keys and/or values to contain : characters) you'd need to settle on an approach and modify the way that the key:value sequence is built.

Using a generator as the input to a dict() constructor has been shown to good effect by @Samwise

Here's a simple loop that might be easier to understand:

Use the split method on : to separate the strings in your list into key-value pairs for the dict.

for entry in data:
    try:
        k, v = entry.split(':')
        res[k] = v
    except ValueError:
        pass

print(res)

Of note, you have one entry '6CordeliaSt' that is neither separated by a colon, nor a blank string. Tweaking the code further would depend on whether or not you wanted to keep or ignore this entry (the above code will ignore it).

I also noticed that you have several entries that start with 'remarks', so this code above will only maintain the last one. A more complex solution would be to keep a list as the value of each dictionary key and append to it, like so

for entry in data:
    try:
        k, v = entry.split(':')
        if k in res.keys():
            res[k].append(v)
        else:
            res[k] = [v]
    except ValueError:
        pass

print(res)

This will still ignore strings that aren't split on a colon like 6CordeliaSt, but it will keep all values together that start with the same key, like remarks, but your "simpler" entries will need to be accessed via the list

CodePudding user response：

for exemple you can try this code plz my bro

list =['inetnum:1.1.1.0-1.1.1.255', 'netname:APNIC-LABS','']

d = {}
for x in list :
    if ':' in x :
        d[x.split(":", 1)[0]] = x.split(":", 1)[1]
        
print(d)
