pprint with custom float formats

问题

I have a nested dictionary structure with tuple keys. Here's what an entry looks like when I pretty-print the dictionary using pprint:

...
 ('A', 'B'): {'C': 0.14285714285714285,
              'D': 0.14285714285714285,
              'E': 0.14285714285714285,
              'F': 0.14285714285714285,
              'G': 0.14285714285714285,
              'H': 0.14285714285714285,
              'I': 0.14285714285714285},
...

It's pretty nifty, but I'd like to customize it further by cutting down some extra digits from the floats. I was thinking that it'd be possible to achieve by subclassing pprint.PrettyPrint but I don't know how that would be done.

Thanks.

As you said, you can achieve this by subclassing PrettyPrinter and overwriting the format method. Note that the output is not only the formatted string, but also some flags.

Once you're at it, you could also generalize this and pass a dictionary with the desired formats for different types into the constructor:

class FormatPrinter(pprint.PrettyPrinter):

    def __init__(self, formats):
        super(FormatPrinter, self).__init__()
        self.formats = formats

    def format(self, obj, ctx, maxlvl, lvl):
        if type(obj) in self.formats:
            return self.formats[type(obj)] % obj, 1, 0
        return pprint.PrettyPrinter.format(self, obj, ctx, maxlvl, lvl)

Example:

>>> d = {('A', 'B'): {'C': 0.14285714285714285,
...                   'D': 0.14285714285714285,
...                   'E': 0.14285714285714285},
...       'C': 255}
...
>>> FormatPrinter({float: "%.2f", int: "%06X"}).pprint(d)
{'C': 0000FF,
 ('A', 'B'): {'C': 0.14,
              'D': 0.14,
              'E': 0.14}}
