Raymond Hettinger <rhettin...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:
We need a more generic solution that allows multi-line reprs for a
variety of types. Here is an example that doesn't involve named tuples:
>>> pprint(s, width=15)
[OrderedDict([('x', 30000000000), ('y', 4000000000), ('z', 5000000000)]),
OrderedDict([('x', 6000000000), ('y', 70000000), ('z', 8000000000)])]
What we want is to have it print like regular dictionaries do:
>>> pprint([dict(p) for p in s], width=15)
[{'x': 30000000000,
'y': 4000000000,
'z': 5000000000},
{'x': 6000000000,
'y': 70000000,
'z': 8000000000}]
It would also be nice if pprint could accept arguments telling it how to
format various types:
>>> pprint(s, width=15, format={int: '15,'})
[{'x': ' 30,000,000,000',
'y': ' 4,000,000,000',
'z': ' 5,000,000,000'},
{'x': ' 6,000,000,000',
'y': ' 70,000,000',
'z': ' 8,000,000,000'}]
