Description: # Osearch - The tool for finding information in nested dicts/lists
        
        When you are working with imported JSON in python, it's often hard to get an overview of the datastructure. I created `osearch` to help you with this. It allows you to search for strings or integers in huge nested structures.
        Here is an example of a messy test structure:
        ```
        tstObj = [
            1,
            2,
            3,
            "listval2",
            "listval5",
            {
                "dict1": "dictval1",
                "dict2": "dictval2",
                "dict3": 3,
                "dict4": ["item1", "A long string here", 1000, "another string"],
                100: 222,
            },
        ]
        ```
        first we import the `osearch` lib: 
        ```
        from osearch import osearch
        ```
        Now we can do some funny searches for strings containing the part "val":
        ```
        >> osearch(tstObj, "val", method="contains", prettyprint=True)
        [3]='listval2'
        [4]='listval5'
        [5]['dict1']='dictval1'
        [5]['dict2']='dictval2'
        ```
        
        Or we could search for an integer:
        ```
        >> osearch(tstObj, 100, prettyprint=True)
        [5][100]
        ```
        
        Or maybe even a regular expression search that is non-case sensitive. Here we search for all occurances of keys/values that ends in val1 or val5:
        ```
        >> osearch(tstObj, r"val[15]$", method="regex-case", prettyprint=True)
        [4]='listval5'
        [5]['dict1']='dictval1'
        ```
        Have fun
