translate isn't called for dictionaries

[stratoukos]

I am trying to use a custom dictionary class for all parsed dictionaries and I thought that I could do that using the translate callback to load/loads. Turns out, translate is only called for scalars and lists, but not for dictionaries (even though there is an elif kind == 'table': in process_value).

It would also be useful if there was a way to provide the dict class and have it done automatically (uiri/toml has such an option).

Thanks!

Thanks! I guess translate is only called for inline tables. I'll have a look at the problem when I have a bit more time, and I'll probably also add object_hook and object_pairs_hook akin to what json.load has, so you can use object_pairs_hook=OrderedDict directly without going through translate.
