Hi guys,

I'm working on this long file, where i have to keep reading and
storing different excerpts of text (data) in different variables (list).

Once done that i want to store in dicts the data i got from the lists mentioned before. I want them on a list of dicts for later RDBMs purpose's.

The data i'm working with, don't have fixed pattern (see example bellow), so what i'm doing is for each row, i want to store combinations of  word/value (Key-value) to keep track of all the data.

My problem is that once i'm iterating over the list (original one a.k.a file_content in the link), then i'm nesting several if clause to match
the keys i want. Done that i select the keys i want to give them values and lastly i append that dict into a new list. The problem here is that i end up always with the last line repeated several times for each row it found's.

Please take a look on what i have now:
