I use the Python package 'sorcery' [0] in all my production services. It gives dict unpacking but also a shorthand dict creation like this: from sorcery import dict_of, unpack_keys a, b = unpack_keys({'a': 1, 'b': 42}) assert a == 1 assert b == 42 assert dict_of(a, b) == {'a': 1, 'b': 42} [0] https://github.com/alexmojaki/sorcery https://github.com/alexmojaki/sorcery
