class bidict.BidirectionalMapping#

Bases: Mapping[KT, VT]

Abstract base class for bidirectional mapping types.

Extends collections.abc.Mapping primarily by adding the (abstract) inverse property, which implementors of BidirectionalMapping should override to return a reference to the inverse BidirectionalMapping instance.

__abstractmethods__ = frozenset({'__getitem__', '__iter__', '__len__', 'inverse'})#
__class_getitem__ = <bound method GenericAlias of <class 'bidict.BidirectionalMapping'>>#
__contains__(key)#
__eq__(other)#

Return self==value.

abstract __getitem__(key)#
__hash__ = None#
classmethod __init_subclass__(*args, **kwargs)#

This method is called when a class is subclassed.

The default implementation does nothing. It may be overridden to extend subclasses.

__inverted__()[source]#

Get an iterator over the items in inverse.

This is functionally equivalent to iterating over the items in the forward mapping and inverting each one on the fly, but this provides a more efficient implementation: Assuming the already-inverted items are stored in inverse, just return an iterator over them directly.

Providing this default implementation enables external functions, particularly inverted(), to use this optimized implementation when available, instead of having to invert on the fly.

See also bidict.inverted()

Return type:

Iterator[tuple[~VT, ~KT]]

abstract __iter__()#
abstract __len__()#
__module__ = 'bidict'#
__orig_bases__ = (typing.Mapping[~KT, ~VT],)#
__parameters__ = (~KT, ~VT)#
__reversed__ = None#
__slots__ = ()#
classmethod __subclasshook__(C)#

Abstract classes can override this to customize issubclass().

This is invoked early on by abc.ABCMeta.__subclasscheck__(). It should return True, False or NotImplemented. If it returns NotImplemented, the normal algorithm is used. Otherwise, it overrides the normal algorithm (and the outcome is cached).

get(k[, d]) D[k] if k in D, else d.  d defaults to None.#
abstract property inverse: BidirectionalMapping[VT, KT]#

The inverse of this bidirectional mapping instance.

Raises:

NotImplementedError – Meant to be overridden in subclasses.

__eq__(other)[source]#

x.__eq__(other) ⟺ x == other

Equivalent to dict(x.items()) == dict(other.items()) but more efficient.

Note that bidict's __eq__() implementation is inherited by subclasses, in particular by the ordered bidict subclasses, so even with ordered bidicts, == comparison is order-insensitive (https://bidict.rtfd.io/other-bidict-types.html#eq-is-order-insensitive).

items()[source]#

A set-like object providing a view on the contained items.

When b._fwdm is a dict, b.items() returns a dict_items object that behaves exactly the same as collections.abc.ItemsView(b), except for:

  • offering better performance

  • being reversible on Python 3.8+

When b._fwdm is a dict, b.keys() returns a dict_keys object that behaves exactly the same as collections.abc.KeysView(b), except for

  • offering better performance

  • being reversible on Python 3.8+

  • having a .mapping attribute in Python 3.10+ that exposes a mappingproxy to b._fwdm.

on_dup = OnDup(key=OD.DROP_OLD, val=OD.RAISE, kv=OD.RAISE)#
values()[source]#

A set-like object providing a view on the contained values.

Since the values of a bidict are equivalent to the keys of its inverse, this method returns a set-like object for this bidict’s values rather than just a collections.abc.ValuesView. This object supports set operations like union and difference, and constant- rather than linear-time containment checks, and is no more expensive to provide than the less capable collections.abc.ValuesView would be.

__setitem__(key, val)[source]#

Set the value for key to val.

If key is already associated with val, this is a no-op.

If key is already associated with a different value, the old value will be replaced with val, as with dict’s __setitem__().

If val is already associated with a different key, an exception is raised to protect against accidental removal of the key that’s currently associated with val.

Use put() instead if you want to specify different behavior in the case that the provided key or value duplicates an existing one. Or use forceput() to unconditionally associate key with val, replacing any existing items as necessary to preserve uniqueness.

__eq__(other)#

x.__eq__(other) ⟺ x == other

Equivalent to dict(x.items()) == dict(other.items()) but more efficient.

Note that bidict's __eq__() implementation is inherited by subclasses, in particular by the ordered bidict subclasses, so even with ordered bidicts, == comparison is order-insensitive (https://bidict.rtfd.io/other-bidict-types.html#eq-is-order-insensitive).

Parameters:

other (object) –

Return type:

bool

__getitem__(key)#

x.__getitem__(key) ⟺ x[key]

Parameters:

key (KT) –

Return type:

VT

__hash__ = None#
__init__(*args, **kw)#

Make a new bidirectional mapping. The signature behaves like that of dict. Items passed in are added in the order they are passed, respecting the on_dup class attribute in the process.

Parameters:
  • args (MapOrItems[KT, VT]) –

  • kw (VT) –

Return type:

None

classmethod __init_subclass__()#

This method is called when a class is subclassed.

The default implementation does nothing. It may be overridden to extend subclasses.

Return type:

None

__inverted__()#

Get an iterator over the items in inverse.

This is functionally equivalent to iterating over the items in the forward mapping and inverting each one on the fly, but this provides a more efficient implementation: Assuming the already-inverted items are stored in inverse, just return an iterator over them directly.

Providing this default implementation enables external functions, particularly inverted(), to use this optimized implementation when available, instead of having to invert on the fly.

See also bidict.inverted()

Return type:

Iterator[tuple[~VT, ~KT]]

__ior__(other)#

Return self|=other.

Parameters:
  • self (BT) –

  • other (Mapping[KT, VT]) –

Return type:

__setitem__(key, val)#

Set the value for key to val.

If key is already associated with val, this is a no-op.

If key is already associated with a different value, the old value will be replaced with val, as with dict’s __setitem__().

If val is already associated with a different key, an exception is raised to protect against accidental removal of the key that’s currently associated with val.

Use put() instead if you want to specify different behavior in the case that the provided key or value duplicates an existing one. Or use forceput() to unconditionally associate key with val, replacing any existing items as necessary to preserve uniqueness.

Raises:
Parameters:
  • key (KT) –

  • val (VT) –

Return type:

None

__slots__ = ()#
classmethod __subclasshook__(C)#

Abstract classes can override this to customize issubclass().

This is invoked early on by abc.ABCMeta.__subclasscheck__(). It should return True, False or NotImplemented. If it returns NotImplemented, the normal algorithm is used. Otherwise, it overrides the normal algorithm (and the outcome is cached).

  • offering better performance

  • being reversible on Python 3.8+

  • having a .mapping attribute in Python 3.10+ that exposes a mappingproxy to b._fwdm.

Return type:

ItemsView[KT, VT]

keys()#

A set-like object providing a view on the contained keys.

When b._fwdm is a dict, b.keys() returns a dict_keys object that behaves exactly the same as collections.abc.KeysView(b), except for

  • offering better performance

  • being reversible on Python 3.8+

  • having a .mapping attribute in Python 3.10+ that exposes a mappingproxy to b._fwdm.

KeysView[KT]

on_dup = OnDup(key=OD.DROP_OLD, val=OD.RAISE, kv=OD.RAISE)#
pop(key, default=MissingT.MISSING)#

Remove specified key and return the corresponding value.

Raises:

KeyError – if key is not found and no default is provided.

Parameters:
  • key (KT) –

  • default (ODT[DT]) –

Return type:

popitem()#

x.popitem() → (k, v)

Remove and return some item as a (key, value) pair.

Raises:

KeyError – if x is empty.

Return type:

tuple[~KT, ~VT]

put(key, val, on_dup=OnDup(key=OD.RAISE, val=OD.RAISE, kv=OD.RAISE))#

Associate key with val, honoring the OnDup given in on_dup.

For example, if on_dup is ON_DUP_RAISE, then key will be associated with val if and only if key is not already associated with an existing value and val is not already associated with an existing key, otherwise an exception will be raised.

If key is already associated with val, this is a no-op.

Raises:
Parameters:
  • key (KT) –

Parameters:
  • args (MapOrItems[KT, VT]) –

  • kw (VT) –

Return type:

None

values()#

A set-like object providing a view on the contained values.

Since the values of a bidict are equivalent to the keys of its inverse, this method returns a set-like object for this bidict’s values rather than just a collections.abc.ValuesView. This object supports set operations like union and difference, and constant- rather than linear-time containment checks, and is no more expensive to provide than the less capable collections.abc.ValuesView would be.

class bidict.FrozenOrderedBidict(*args, **kw)#

Bases: OrderedBidictBase[KT, VT]

Hashable, immutable, ordered bidict type.

Like a hashable bidict.OrderedBidict without the mutating APIs, or like a reversible bidict.frozenbidict even on Python < 3.8.

If you are using Python 3.8+, frozenbidict gives you everything that FrozenOrderedBidict gives you, but with less space overhead. On the other hand, using FrozenOrderedBidict when you are depending on the ordering of the items can make the ordering dependence more explicit.

Parameters:

__annotations__ = {'__hash__': 't.Callable[[t.Any], int]'}#

The inverse of this bidirectional mapping instance.

items()#

A set-like object providing a view on the contained items.

When b._fwdm is a dict, b.items() returns a dict_items object that behaves exactly the same as collections.abc.ItemsView(b), except for:

  • offering better performance

  • being reversible on Python 3.8+

  • having a .mapping attribute in Python 3.10+ that exposes a mappingproxy to b._fwdm.

Return type:

ItemsView[KT, VT]

keys()#

A set-like object providing a view on the contained keys.

When b._fwdm is a dict, b.keys() returns a dict_keys object that behaves exactly the same as collections.abc.KeysView(b), except for

  • offering better performance

  • being reversible on Python 3.8+

  • having a .mapping attribute in Python 3.10+ that exposes a mappingproxy to b._fwdm.

Return type:

KeysView[KT]

on_dup = OnDup(key=OD.DROP_OLD, val=OD.RAISE, kv=OD.RAISE)#
values()#

A set-like object providing a view on the contained values.

Since the values of a bidict are equivalent to the keys of its inverse, this method returns a set-like object for this bidict’s values rather than just a collections.abc.ValuesView. This object supports set operations like union and difference, and constant- rather than linear-time containment checks, and is no more expensive to provide than the less capable collections.abc.ValuesView would be.

See keys() for more information.

Return type:

BidictKeysView[VT]

class bidict.OrderedBidict(*args, **kw)#

Bases: OrderedBidictBase[KT, VT], MutableBidict[KT, VT]

Mutable bidict type that maintains items in insertion order.

Parameters:
  • args (MapOrItems[KT, VT]) –

  • kw (VT) –

__abstractmethods__ = frozenset({})#
__annotations__ = {}#
__class_getitem__ = <bound method GenericAlias of <class 'bidict.OrderedBidict'>>#
__contains__(key)#

True if the mapping contains the specified key, else False.

Parameters:

key (Any) –

Return type:

bool

__copy__()#

Make a (shallow) copy of this bidict.

Parameters:

self (BT) –

Return type:

BT

__delitem__(key)#

x.__delitem__(y) ⟺ del x[y]

Parameters:

key (KT) –

Return type:

None

__dict__ = mappingproxy({'__module__': 'bidict', '__doc__': 'Mutable bidict type that maintains items in insertion order.', 'clear': <function OrderedBidict.clear>, '_pop': <function OrderedBidict._pop>, 'popitem': <function OrderedBidict.popitem>, 'move_to_end': <function OrderedBidict.move_to_end>, 'keys': <function OrderedBidict.keys>, 'items': <function OrderedBidict.items>, '__orig_bases__': (bidict.OrderedBidictBase[~KT, ~VT], bidict.MutableBidict[~KT, ~VT]), '__parameters__': (~KT, ~VT), '_inv_cls': <class 'bidict.OrderedBidict'>, '__abstractmethods__': frozenset(), '_abc_impl': <_abc._abc_data object>, '__annotations__': {}})#
__eq__(other)#

x.__eq__(other) ⟺ x == other

Equivalent to dict(x.items()) == dict(other.items()) but more efficient.

Note that bidict's __eq__() implementation is inherited by subclasses, in particular by the ordered bidict subclasses, so even with ordered bidicts, == comparison is order-insensitive (https://bidict.rtfd.io/other-bidict-types.html#eq-is-order-insensitive).

See also equals_order_sensitive()

Parameters:

other (object) –

Return type:

bool

__getitem__(key)#

x.__getitem__(key) ⟺ x[key]

Parameters:

key (KT) –

Return type:

VT

__hash__ = None#
__init__(*args, **kw)#

Make a new ordered bidirectional mapping. The signature behaves like that of dict. Items passed in are added in the order they are passed, respecting the on_dup class attribute in the process.

The order in which items are inserted is remembered, similar to collections.OrderedDict.

Parameters:
  • args (MapOrItems[KT, VT]) –

  • kw (VT) –

Return type:

None

classmethod __init_subclass__()#

This method is called when a class is subclassed.

The default implementation does nothing. It may be overridden to extend subclasses.

Return type:

None

__inverted__()#

Get an iterator over the items in inverse.

This is functionally equivalent to iterating over the items in the forward mapping and inverting each one on the fly, but this provides a more efficient implementation: Assuming the already-inverted items are stored in inverse, just return an iterator over them directly.

Providing this default implementation enables external functions, particularly inverted(), to use this optimized implementation when available, instead of having to invert on the fly.

See also bidict.inverted()

Return type:

Iterator[tuple[~VT, ~KT]]

__ior__(other)#

Return self|=other.

Parameters:

other (Mapping[KT, VT]) –

Return type:

__orig_bases__ = (bidict.OrderedBidictBase[~KT, ~VT], bidict.MutableBidict[~KT, ~VT])#
__parameters__ = (~KT, ~VT)#
__reduce__()#

Return state information for pickling.

Return type:

tuple[Any, …]

Iterator[KT]

__ror__(other)#

Return other|self.

Parameters:
  • self (BT) –

  • other (Mapping[KT, VT]) –

Return type:

BT

__setitem__(key, val)#

Set the value for key to val.

If key is already associated with val, this is a no-op.

If key is already associated with a different value, the old value will be replaced with val, as with dict’s __setitem__().

If val is already associated with a different key, an exception is raised to protect against accidental removal of the key that’s currently associated with val.

Use put() instead if you want to specify different behavior in the case that the provided key or value duplicates an existing one. Or use forceput() to unconditionally associate key with val, replacing any existing items as necessary to preserve uniqueness.

Raises:
Parameters:
  • key (KT) –

  • val (VT) –

Return type:

None

__slots__ = ()#
classmethod __subclasshook__(C)#

Abstract classes can override this to customize issubclass().

This is invoked early on by abc.ABCMeta.__subclasscheck__(). It should return True, False or NotImplemented. If it returns NotImplemented, the normal algorithm is used. Otherwise, it overrides the normal algorithm (and the outcome is cached).

__weakref__#

list of weak references to the object (if defined)

clear()[source]#

Remove all items.

Return type:

None

copy()#

Make a (shallow) copy of this bidict.

Parameters:

self (BT) –

Return type:

BT

equals_order_sensitive(other)#

Order-sensitive equality check.

See also __eq__() is order-insensitive (https://bidict.rtfd.io/other-bidict-types.html#eq-is-order-insensitive)

Parameters:

other (object) –

Return type:

bool

forceput(key, val)#

Associate key with val unconditionally.

Replace any existing mappings containing key key or value val as necessary to preserve uniqueness.

Parameters:
  • key (KT) –

  • val (VT) –

Return type:

None

forceupdate(*args, **kw)#

Like a bulk forceput().

Parameters:
  • args (MapOrItems[KT, VT]) –

  • kw (VT) –

popitem(last=True)[source]#

b.popitem() → (k, v)

If last is true, remove and return the most recently added item as a (key, value) pair. Otherwise, remove and return the least recently added item.

Raises:

KeyError – if b is empty.

Parameters:

last (bool) –

Return type:

tuple[~KT, ~VT]

put(key, val, on_dup=OnDup(key=OD.RAISE, val=OD.RAISE, kv=OD.RAISE))#

Associate key with val, honoring the OnDup given in on_dup.

For example, if on_dup is ON_DUP_RAISE, then key will be associated with val if and only if key is not already associated with an existing value and val is not already associated with an existing key, otherwise an exception will be raised.

If key is already associated with val, this is a no-op.

Raises:
