So I have a list dictionary of dictionaries (lst) that I’m trying to iterate through, compare values, and return the appropriate values.
I have the following code to retrieve 2 arguments given from the command line, compare them through the dictionaries entries, and return the appropriate value:
def get_attribute_number(cmd1, cmd2, lst):
app_name = cmd1
attribute = cmd2
for name in lst: #lst is a dictionary
if name["description"] == app_name:
print(int(name[attribute]))
get_attribute_number(cmd1=sys.argv[1], cmd2=sys.argv[2], lst=data_list)
However, my program is not returning anything. It is supposed to for example if I provide the cmd line arguments python3 program.py [NAME] [ATTRIBUTE], is supposed to query the above data until it finds a match for the name, and return its requested attribute as an integer. Can anyone offer suggestions on why I’m not able to print(int(name[attribute])) for the corresponding napp_name?

i changes your code a little to be more friendly to user:
import sys
data_list = [{'{#Status}': "['failed']", '{#DESCRIPTION}': "['kytos/kytos']", '{#PASSED}': '316', '{#FAILED}': '1', '{#WARNING}': '204', '{#SKIPPED}': 0, '{#XFAILED}': 0},

def get_attribute_number(cmd1, cmd2, lst):
"""For each attribute under a napp, retrieve that attribute as a NUMBER"""
napp_name = cmd1
attribute_name = cmd2
for napp in lst: #lst is a dictionary
if napp_name in napp["{#DESCRIPTION}"]: # change happened here
print(napp)
print(int(napp[attribute_name]))
get_attribute_number(sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2], data_list)
basicly thay need to enter just substring to get some results, so this:
python tt.py 'kytos/kytos' {#SKIPPED}
outputs only desired data:
{'{#Status}': "['failed']", '{#DESCRIPTION}': "['kytos/kytos']", '{#PASSED}': '316', '{#FAILED}': '1', '{#WARNING}': '204', '{#SKIPPED}': 0, '{#XFAILED}': 0}
