Getting Started
1. load default configurations from a dictionary (or an object)
# from a dictionary
from easyconfig import Config
config = Config({'DEBUG': True})
assert config.DEBUG == True
# from an object
from easyconfig import Config
from yourapplication import default_config
config = Config(default_config)
assert config.DEBUG == True2. load/update configurations from a dictionary
from easyconfig import Config
config = Config()
config.load({'PORT': 5000})3. load/update configurations from an object
from easyconfig import Config
from yourapplication import default_config
config = Config()
config.load(default_config)4. load configurations from environment variables
import os
os.environ.setdefault('SECRET_KEY', '123***456')
from easyconfig import Config
config = Config(datasrc=os.environ)
assert config.SECRET_KEY == '123***456'5. load/update configurations from a string pointing to an object
from easyconfig import Config, str_object
config = Config()
config.load(str_object('yourapplication.default_config'))
assert config.SECRET_KEY == '123***456'6. load/update configurations from an environment variable pointing to an object
import os
os.environ.setdefault('EASY_CONFIG', 'yourapplication.default_config')
from easyconfig import Config, str_object
config = Config()
config.load(str_object('EASY_CONFIG', is_envvar=True))
assert config.SECRET_KEY == '123***456'7. load/update configurations from a JSON file
from easyconfig import Config, json_mapping
config = Config()
config.load(json_mapping('/data/configs/default_config.json'))
assert config.SECRET_KEY == '123***456'8. load/update configurations from an environment variable pointing to a JSON file
import os
os.environ.setdefault('EASY_CONFIG', '/data/configs/default_config.json')
from easyconfig import Config, json_mapping
config = Config()
config.load(json_mapping('EASY_CONFIG', is_envvar=True))
assert config.SECRET_KEY == '123***456'9. load/update configurations from a YAML file
from easyconfig import Config, yaml_mapping
config = Config()
config.load(yaml_mapping('/data/configs/default_config.yml'))
assert config.SECRET_KEY == '123***456'10. load/update configurations from an environment variable pointing to a YAML file
import os
os.environ.setdefault('EASY_CONFIG', '/data/configs/default_config.yml')
from easyconfig import Config, yaml_mapping
config = Config()
config.load(yaml_mapping('EASY_CONFIG', is_envvar=True))
assert config.SECRET_KEY == '123***456'
