Python Chain getattr as a string

Question

import amara
def chain_attribute_call(obj, attlist):
    \"\"\"
    Allows to execute chain attribute calls
    \"\"\"
    splitted_attrs = attlist.split(\".\")
             


        

Answer 1

Just copying from Useful code which uses reduce() in Python:

from functools import reduce
reduce(getattr, "X.Y.Z".split('.'), doc)

Answer 2

you could also use:

from operator import attrgetter
attrgetter('x.y.z')(doc)
