bidict:

  • has been used for many years by several teams at Google, Venmo, CERN, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, Bloomberg, Two Sigma, and many others

  • has carefully designed APIs for safety, simplicity, flexibility, and ergonomics

  • is fast, lightweight, and has no runtime dependencies other than Python’s standard library

  • integrates natively with Python’s collections.abc interfaces

  • provides type hints for all public APIs

  • is implemented in concise, well-factored, pure (PyPy-compatible) Python code that is optimized for running efficiently as well as for reading and learning [1]

  • has extensive docs and test coverage (including property-based tests and benchmarks) run continuously on all supported Python versions

Note: Python 3 Required

As promised in the 0.18.2 release (see changelog [2]), Python 2 is no longer supported. Version 0.18.3 is the last release of bidict that supports Python 2. This makes bidict more efficient on Python 3 and enables further improvement to bidict in the future. See python3statement.org for more info.

Installation

pip install bidict

Quick Start

>>> from bidict import bidict
>>> element_by_symbol = bidict({'H': 'hydrogen'})
>>> element_by_symbol['H']
'hydrogen'
>>> element_by_symbol.inverse['hydrogen']
'H'

Learning from bidict

One of the best things about bidict is that it touches a surprising number of interesting Python corners, especially given its small size and scope.

Check out learning-from-bidict [1] if you’re interested in learning more.

Contributing

bidict is currently a one-person operation maintained on a voluntary basis.

Your help would be most welcome!

Reviewers Wanted!

One of the most valuable ways to contribute to bidict – and to explore some interesting Python corners [1] while you’re at it – is to review the relatively small codebase.

Please create an issue or pull request with any improvements you’d propose or any other results you found. Submitting a draft PR with feedback in inline code comments, or a “Review results” issue, would each work well.

You can also +1 this issue to sign up to give feedback on future proposed changes that are in need of a reviewer.

Giving Back

bidict is the product of hundreds of hours of unpaid, voluntary work.

If bidict has helped you accomplish your work, especially work you’ve been paid for, please consider chipping in toward the costs of its maintenance and development and/or ask your organization to do the same.
