Added code to interpret strings in the dictionary value field to be interpreted as Python values (int, float, bool, etc). Default behavior remains unchanged, this additional step only occurs if
convert_values=True
in theparse
function.An example has been added to the
parse
docstring and to the list of unit tests.PR is set as draft since I could not run tox on my local machine. I'll wait for Travis to run the tests and convert from draft to full PR once it's passing.
