Python library to parse config files that require indexing
Project description
A class to parse configuration files that require indexing.
To use this parser to its full potential create config files in the
following format for example:
server_1 = somename
ip_1 = 1.2.3.4
server_2 = someothername
ip_2 = 4.3.2.1
universal_key = something universal
You keep raising the indexed number as much as you want.
The way to use this library is to pick a config definition
that you know will be different for each index. In this case I would
use "server" as the "defining key" and that would make each server name
into its own dictionary and the key/value pairs for it would be the config
key/values that are associated with the same index number.
There are 3 lists that are created on each parse:
keys = this is a list of the keys that are not indexed
(used for universal purposes)
index_keys = this is a list of all the keys that are indexed
(this is generated based on the defining key)
all_keys = this is a list of all the keys combined
