A more convenient and practical approach to manage .ini files. You can link a class property with an .ini file option and delegating your management.
๐ฆ Installation
Install it via pip
$ [sudo] pip install iniconfig.py
Or download zip and then install it by running
$ [sudo] python setup.py install
Example
from iniconfig import IniConfig
class Config(IniConfig):
# file section
useCsvWizard = IniConfig.iniproperty('file', 'useCsvWizard', True)
owner = IniConfig.iniproperty('file', 'owner', {'name':'david', 'login':'yeap'})
files = IniConfig.iniproperty('file', 'files', [])
# tools section
searches = IniConfig.iniproperty('tools', 'searches', ['primate', 'wolf', 'rabbit'])
matchMode = IniConfig.iniproperty('tools', 'matchMode', 0)
weight = IniConfig.iniproperty('tools', 'weight', False)
# config section
restore = IniConfig.iniproperty('config', 'restore', True)
config = Config('demo.ini')#, autocreate=True)
print '\nafter'
print 'file/useCsvWizard:', config.useCsvWizard
print 'file/owner:', config.owner
print 'file/files:', config.files
print 'tools/searches:', config.searches
config.useCsvWizard = False
config.files = ['myfile.py']
config.owner['name'] = 'joan'
config.owner['surname'] = 'miro'
del(config.owner['login'])
del config.searches[2]
print '\nbefore'
print 'file/useCsvWizard:', config.useCsvWizard
print 'file/owner:', config.owner
print 'file/files:', config.files
print 'tools/searches:', config.searchesResult
after
file/useCsvWizard: True
file/owner: {'login': 'yeap', 'name': 'david'}
file/files: []
tools/searches: ['primate', 'wolf', 'rabbit']
before
file/useCsvWizard: False
file/owner: {'surname': 'miro', 'name': 'joan'}
file/files: ['myfile.py']
tools/searches: ['primate', 'wolf']Now the content .ini file is:
[file]
usecsvwizard = False
files = ['myfile.py']
owner = {'surname': 'miro', 'name': 'joan'}
[tools]
searches = ['primate', 'wolf']
