xmltodict.parse(xml, dict_constructor=dict)
is already available since a few years.
If it's not working for you, you should state your Python version and your xmltodict version.
using dict
instead of OrderedDict
is also the default if you're using Python 3.7+ (dicts with insertion order are only an implementation detail in C-Python 3.6, not an official Python feature).
related issue: #252
The "dict_constructor" keyword is not mentioned in the docstring of parse()
- not in v0.12.0, or at HEAD (https://github.com/martinblech/xmltodict/blob/master/xmltodict.py#L202).
Can we get an option that parse will return the object as normal dictionaries instead of OrderedDict?
