That's pretty good, but it does clone the dict unnecessarily. I prefer:
class AttrDict(object):
def __init__(self, adict):
self.__dict__ = adict #a reference, not a copy
def __getattr__(self, attr):
if hasattr(dict, attr): #built-in methods of dict...
return getattr(self.__dict__, attr) #...are bound directly to the dict
else:
try:
return self.__dict__[attr]
except KeyError:
raise AttributeError(attr)
