convert_side(data, sides='LR', both=False)

Replace recursively all iterations of {} with side in a data structure.

Parameters

• data (list or dict) – The data to traverse and update.

• sides (str) – The sides to replace brackets with.

• both (bool) – By default, if the key is “sided”, the values associated will only get the same side as the key. Otherwise, values will get both sides. Default is False.

Example

data = side.convert_side({
    "spine_01_grp": "spine_01_jnt",
    "{}_shoulder_mechanic_grp": "{}_arm_shoulder_jnt",
    "{}_knee_pistons_grp": "{}_leg_knee_jnt",
})

>>> # Result: {"L_knee_pistons_grp": "L_leg_knee_jnt",
     "L_shoulder_mechanic_grp": "L_arm_shoulder_jnt",
     "R_knee_pistons_grp": "R_leg_knee_jnt",
     "R_shoulder_mechanic_grp": "R_arm_shoulder_jnt",
     "spine_01_grp": "spine_01_jnt"} #

Returns

An updated and sided copy of the given data.
