Python dictionary in to html table

Question

Is there any way to print the python dictionary in to a table in HTML. I have a python dictionary and am sending to HTML by using

return render_template(\'i         


        

Answer 1

so I wanted an easy way to generate html from python dictionary with only inline styles (because emails) and couldn't find anything that I was satasfied with so I wrote this,

it's very simple to use and easy to add styles to

    

        
col1
        
col2
        
col3
        
col4
    

    

        
value11
        
value21
        
value31
        
value41
    
    

        
value12
        
value22
        
value32
        
value42
    
    

        
value13
        
value23
        
value33
        
value43
    

lets say you have the following dictionary

myDict = {
    'col1' : ['value11', 'value12', 'value13'],
    'col2' : ['value21', 'value22', 'value23'],
    'col3' : ['value31', 'value32', 'value33'],
    'col4' : ['value41', 'value42', 'value43'],
}

it can be converted with

class HTML:

    def __init__(self, Header, tableStyles = {}, trStyles = {}, thStyles = {}):
        self.tableStyles = HTML._styleConverter(tableStyles)
        trStyles = HTML._styleConverter(trStyles)
        thStyles = HTML._styleConverter(thStyles)
        self.rows = []
        self.Header= f''
        for th in Header:
            self.Header += f'\n{th}'
        self.Header += '\n'

    @staticmethod
    def _styleConverter(styleDict : dict):
        if styleDict == {}:
            return ''
        styles = ''
        for [style, value] in styleDict.items():
            styles +=f'{style}: {value};'
        return f'style="{styles}"'

    def addRow(self, row, trStyles = {}, tdStyles = {}):
        trStyles = HTML._styleConverter(trStyles)
        tdStyles = HTML._styleConverter(tdStyles)
        temp_row = f'\n'
        for td in row:
            temp_row += f'\n{td}'
        temp_row += '\n'
        self.rows.append(temp_row)


    def __str__(self):


        return \
f'''

{self.Header}
{''.join(self.rows)}

'''



def dictionaryToHTMLTable(dict : dict):
    html = HTML(Header = dict.keys(),
                tableStyles={'margin': '3px'},
                trStyles={'background-color': '#7cc3a97d'},
                thStyles={ 'color': 'white'})
    for i, row in enumerate(zip(*dict.values())):
        print(row)
        if i%2 == 0:
            BGC = 'aliceblue'
        else:
            BGC = '#c2d4e4'
        html.addRow(row, trStyles={'background-color' : BGC}, tdStyles={'padding': '1rem'})
    return html

and to output

print(dictionaryToHTMLTable(myDict))
