Multidict is dict-like collection of *key-value pairs* where key
might occur more than once in the container.

Introduction
------------

*HTTP Headers* and *URL query string* require specific data structure:
*multidict*. It behaves mostly like a regular dict but it may have
several *values* for the same *key* and *preserves insertion ordering*.

The *key* is str (or istr for case-insensitive dictionaries).

multidict has four multidict classes:
MultiDict, MultiDictProxy, CIMultiDict
and CIMultiDictProxy.

Immutable proxies (MultiDictProxy and
CIMultiDictProxy) provide a dynamic view for the
proxied multidict, the view reflects underlying collection changes. They
implement the ``collections.abc.Mapping`` interface.

Regular mutable (MultiDict and CIMultiDict) classes
implement ``collections.abc.MutableMapping`` and allows them to change
their own content.

*Case insensitive* (CIMultiDict and
CIMultiDictProxy) assume the *keys* are case
insensitive, e.g.::

   >>> dct = CIMultiDict(key='val')
   >>> 'Key' in dct
   True
   >>> dct['Key']
   'val'

*Keys* should be str or istr instances.

The library has optional C Extensions for speed.

Library Installation
--------------------

.. code-block:: bash

   $ pip install multidict

The library is Python 3 only!

PyPI contains binary wheels for Linux, Windows and MacOS.  If you want to
install
multidict on another operating system (or *Alpine Linux* inside a Docker)
the
tarball will be used to compile the library from source.  It requires a C
compiler and
Python headers to be installed.

To skip the compilation, please use the `MULTIDICT_NO_EXTENSIONS`
environment variable,
e.g.:

.. code-block:: bash

   $ MULTIDICT_NO_EXTENSIONS=1 pip install multidict

Please note, the pure Python (uncompiled) version is about 20-50 times
slower depending on
the usage scenario!!!

For extension development, set the MULTIDICT_DEBUG_BUILD environment
variable to compile
the extensions in debug mode:

.. code-block:: console

   $ MULTIDICT_DEBUG_BUILD=1 pip install multidict
