globconf
- Creates a global configparser object, regardless of the project and module in need of it
- A docker container can be used to host protected config files, consumable by the parser object
- verify_required_options merges default options with the configparser ones, and optionally ENV options while validating required options have been set either way.
Getting Started
In a project using globconf:
from globconf import config, verify_required_options, read_config, fetch_config
# when starting the app, the config can be loaded from a specific path:
read_config(path='flaf.ini', force=True) # reloads config, even if it already is loaded
# or from the globconfd container - caching supported as convenience for offline devs:
fetch_config('http://127.0.0.1:5000/cfg.ini', 'user', 'pass', cache_timeout=86400, force=True)
# if config is not explicitly loaded, config.ini is read from current folder (if there).
# verify_required_options checks presence of options, yielding a dict with the merged options
# for the section
DEFAULTS = {'required': None, 'optional_a': 1234}
cfg = verify_required_options('Some section', ['required', 'options', 'for', 'the', 'section'])
# beyond this, its still basic ConfigParser as you know it..
In modules:
from globconf import verify_required_options
class module(object):
def __init__(self):
sec = 'service now'
self.cfg = verify_required_options(sec, ['host', 'user', 'pwd'])
if not self.cfg.getboolean('verify_ssl', fallback=True):
import urllib3
urllib3.disable_warnings(InsecureRequestWarning)
And your module is happy as long as someone has initialised the needed section in the global config.
