Trying to get column data from an a list of dictionaries

Question

I have the following data:

locations = [
    {"id": 1,"Name": "Ottawa"},
    {"id": 2,"Name": "Ahmedabad"},
    {"id": 3,"Name": "London"}

and I am trying to get an output which shows a list of names so: [Ottawa, Ahmedabad, London] or something similar to this. How can I go about making this or is this even possible?

I have created a function that can give individual names

def find_names(Name):
    try:
        return ( location['Name'] for location in locations if location['Name'] == Name)
    except:
        raise BadRequest(f"Can't find the location by name {Name}")

that gives an output of "Ottawa" when looking at that specific route.

Answer 1

Your function filters for some Name. Remove that and it should work

# use a list comprehension
[d['Name'] for d in locations]
# ['Ottawa', 'Ahmedabad', 'London']

Another way is to call operator.itemgetter

from operator import itemgetter
print(*map(itemgetter('Name'), locations))
# Ottawa Ahmedabad London
