    Function●Since v0.1

    merge_dicts

    Merge dictionaries.

    Merge many dicts, handling specific scenarios where a key exists in both dictionaries but has a value of None in 'left'. In such cases, the method uses the value from 'right' for that key in the merged dictionary.

    Copy
    merge_dicts(
        left: dict[str, Any],
        *others: dict[str, Any] = (),
    ) -> dict[str, Any]

    Example:

    If left = {"function_call": {"arguments": None}} and right = {"function_call": {"arguments": "{\n"}}, then, after merging, for the key 'function_call', the value from 'right' is used, resulting in merged = {"function_call": {"arguments": "{\n"}}.

    Parameters

    NameTypeDescription
    left*dict[str, Any]

    The first dictionary to merge.

    othersdict[str, Any]
    Default:()

    The other dictionaries to merge.
