merge list values in dictionary in python code example

Example 1: merge a list of dictionaries python

>>> from collections import ChainMap
>>> a = [{'a':1},{'b':2},{'c':1},{'d':2}]
>>> dict(ChainMap(*a))
{'b': 2, 'c': 1, 'a': 1, 'd': 2}

Example 2: merge two list of dictionaries python with string

import pandas as pd

l1 = [{'id': 9, 'av': 4}, {'id': 10, 'av': 0}, {'id': 8, 'av': 0}]
l2 = [{'id': 9, 'nv': 45}, {'id': 10, 'nv': 0}, {'id': 8, 'nv': 30}]

df1 = pd.DataFrame(l1).set_index('id')
df2 = pd.DataFrame(l2).set_index('id')
df = df1.merge(df2, left_index=True, right_index=True)
df.T.to_dict()
# {9: {'av': 4, 'nv': 45}, 10: {'av': 0, 'nv': 0}, 8: {'av': 0, 'nv': 30}}
