Python multi-level nested dictionary












-1














Change a list to a python3 multi-level nested dictionary with a new dictionary in the value of each layer.



I have data now:



list = [
('First', 'Second', 'Third'),
('First_2', 'Second_2', 'Third_3','Fourth_4')
]


The result I want:




[
{"name": "First", "children": [{"name": "Second", "children": [{"name": "Third", "children": [{"name": "Fourth"}]}]}]},
{"name": "First", "children": [{"name": "Second_1", "children": [{"name": "Second_2", "children": [{"name": "Third_3", "children": [{"name": "Fourth_4"}]}]}]}]}
]


As you can see, a big dictionary.
The key value of the first dictionary is 'name', and the value is the subscript of the list.
In the second dictionary, the key value is 'children', the value is a list, and there is a dictionary in the list. The dictionary has the same structure as the first level dictionary. The dictionary key value of children is +1 for the list. By analogy, all the elements in the list are looped.
Thank you for your answer or suggestion
