RecursiveMapConverter

Description

The RecursiveMapConverter class allows you to convert arbitrary values into map objects using extended conversion rules.

Important points

• This class is similar to MapConverter. The difference is that it recursively converts all values stored in objects and arrays.

Instance methods

to_map

Converts value into map object or returns empty map when conversion is not possible

static to_map(value: Any): Any

• value: Any - the value to convert.
• returns: Any - map object or empty map when conversion is not supported.

to_map_with_default

Converts value into map object or returns default when conversion is not possible

static to_map_with_default(value: Any, default_value: Any): Any

• value: Any - the value to convert.
• default_value: Any - the default value.
• returns: Any - map object or empty map when conversion is not supported.

to_nullable_map

Converts value into map object or returns None when conversion is not possible.

static to_nullable_map(value: Any): Any

• value: Any - the value to convert.
• returns: Any - map object or None when conversion is not supported.

Examples

value1 = RecursiveMapConverter.to_nullable_map({ 'key': 123 }) # Returns {'key': 123}
value2 = RecursiveMapConverter.to_nullable_map([1,[2,3]])      # Returns {0: 1, 1: {0: 2, 1: 3}}
