Pickleable wrappers for Python collections with non-built-in type keys and cycles or self-references.
Interfaces to collections which solve the problem of unpickleable objects when non-built-in type keys are used and form cycles, either mutually or through self-reference.
A detailed article explaining the problem and this solution will soon be available at: http://www.petrounias.org/articles/
Version 1.0.0
Documentation: https://python-restorable-collections.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

Import the collections wrappers from the restorable_collections module.

and use it instead of the corresponding Python object:
self.foo = RestorableDict()
self.foo[self] = 42
