- configglue -- glue for your apps' configuration
-
- Three things:
-
- AttributedConfigParser:
-
- a ConfigParser that gives you attributed options. So a config file with
-
- [foo]
- bar = Hello World
- bar.level = newbie
-
- will have one option under the 'foo' section, and that option will have a
- value ('Hello World') and an attribute 'level', with value 'newbie'.
-
- TypedConfigParser:
-
- an AttributedConfigParser that uses the 'parser' attribtue to parse the
- value. So
-
- [foo]
- bar = 7
- bar.parser = int
-
- will have a 'foo' section with a 'bar' option which value is int('7').
-
- configglue:
-
- A function that creates an TypedConfigParser and uses it to build an
- optparse.OptionParser instance. So you can have a config file with
-
- [foo]
- bar.default = 7
- bar.help = The bar number [%(default)s]
- bar.metavar = BAR
- bar.parser = int
-
- and if you load it with configglue, you get something like
-
- $ python sample.py --help
- Usage: sample.py [options]
-
- Options:
- -h, --help show this help message and exit
-
- blah:
- --foo-bar=BAR The bar number [7]
