Destructuring dicts and objects in Python [duplicate]

You can use operator module from standard library as follows:

from operator import attrgetter
id, email, gender, username = attrgetter('id', 'email', 'gender', 'username')(current_user)
print(id, email, gender, username)

In case you have a dict like from your example

currentUser = {
  "id": 24,
  "name": "John Doe",
  "website": "http://mywebsite.com",
  "description": "I am an actor",
  "email": "example@example.com",
  "gender": "M",
  "phone_number": "+12345678",
  "username": "johndoe",
  "birth_date": "1991-02-23",
  "followers": 46263,
  "following": 345,
  "like": 204,
  "comments": 9
}

just use itemgetter instead of attrgetter:

from operator import itemgetter
id, email, gender, username = itemgetter('id', 'email', 'gender', 'username')(currentUser)
print(id, email, gender, username)
