Critical data loss

[ofek]

Using latest 0.7.0:

>>> import tomlkit
>>>
>>> doc = tomlkit.parse("""
... [tool.poetry.foo]
... option = 'test'
...
... [tool.poetry.bar]
... option = 'test'
... """)
>>>
>>> doc
{'tool': {'poetry': {'foo': {'option': 'test'}, 'bar': {'option': 'test'}}}}
>>> doc['tool']
{'poetry': {'bar': {'option': 'test'}}}
>>> dict(doc['tool'])
{'poetry': {'bar': {'option': 'test'}}}

Can you show us what print(doc) displays? Because there is a bug, but it doesn't cause critical data loss.

I tried your code using tomlkit 0.7.0 on Python 3.8.3. Here's what I got.

>>> print(doc)
{'tool': {'poetry': {'foo': {'option': 'test'}, 'bar': {'option': 'test'}}}}

>>> doc['tool']
{'poetry': {'bar': {'option': 'test'}}}


>>> doc['tool']['poetry']['foo']
{'option': 'test'}


>>> doc['tool']['poetry']['bar']
{'option': 'test'}

It shows the same as yours.

It is critical because I need to make copies of a subset of the document and referenced subsets don't contain everything.

tomlkit's containers and tables inherits from built-in dict and has some but not all customized implementations of the magic methods. It often leads to issue where the native version of the method is called instead of the customized one.

Any update?

I've created a fork of tomlkit v0.7.0 with the issue fixed, try it:
