Introduction ------------ *HTTP Headers* and *URL query string* require specific data structure: *multidict*. It behaves mostly like a regular ``dict`` but it may have several *values* for the same *key* and *preserves insertion ordering*. The *key* is ``str`` (or ``istr`` for case-insensitive dictionaries). ``multidict`` has four multidict classes: ``MultiDict``, ``MultiDictProxy``, ``CIMultiDict`` and ``CIMultiDictProxy``. Immutable proxies (``MultiDictProxy`` and ``CIMultiDictProxy``) provide a dynamic view for the proxied multidict, the view reflects underlying collection changes. They implement the ``collections.abc.Mapping`` interface. Regular mutable (``MultiDict`` and ``CIMultiDict``) classes implement ``collections.abc.MutableMapping`` and allows to change their own content. *Case insensitive* (``CIMultiDict`` and ``CIMultiDictProxy``) ones assume the *keys* are case insensitive, e.g.:: >>> dct = CIMultiDict(key='val') >>> 'Key' in dct True >>> dct['Key'] 'val' *Keys* should be ``str`` or ``istr`` instances. The library has optional Cython_ optimization for sake of speed.
