python类的属性打印,打印Python类的所有属性

I have a class Animal with several properties like:

class Animal(object):

def __init__(self):

self.legs = 2

self.name = 'Dog'

self.color= 'Spotted'

self.smell= 'Alot'

self.age = 10

self.kids = 0

#many more...

I now want to print all these properties to a text file. The ugly way I'm doing it now is like:

animal=Animal()

output = 'legs:%d, name:%s, color:%s, smell:%s, age:%d, kids:%d' % (animal.legs, animal.name, animal.color, animal.smell, animal.age, animal.kids,)

Is there a better Pythonic way to do this?

In this simple case you can use vars():

an = Animal()

attrs = vars(an)

# {'kids': 0, 'name': 'Dog', 'color': 'Spotted', 'age': 10, 'legs': 2, 'smell': 'Alot'}

# now dump this in some way or another

print(', '.join("%s: %s" % item for item in attrs.items()))

If you want to store Python objects on the disk you should look at shelve — Python object persistence.
