al-smart-settings 1.2.0

Smart setting files

Smart Settings

A nifty little wrapper around settings files. Particularly useful for cluster utils.

Run to install:

python3 -m pip install al-smart-settings

Main features

• Supports JSON, YAML and TOML files.

• Duplicate check. Duplicate keys in JSONs are caught and raise an exception.

• Objectification The resulting objects support dot access. By default they are immutable (but a mutable copy can be exported).

• Imports It allows for importing other JSON files with arbitrary level of nesting and recursion. Imports are carried out from the most nested and NEVER overwrite present values.

• Dynamic values Some values may be "computed" dynamically based on other content of the JSON (after all imports are performed). This includes access to environmental variables (present in os.environ).

API for changing keys in many files

python3 -m smart_settings.change_key settings/*.json train_params.opt_params optimizer_params

--> Changes train_params.opt_params to train_params.optimizer_params in every file matching the wildcard

python3 -m smart_settings.add_key settings/*.json  train_params.num_epochs 10 --override

--> Adds key train_params.num_epochs with value 10. --override controls overwriting of present values

python3 -m smart_settings.port_cluster_utils_3 settings/**/*.json

--> Performs all name changes required for porting to cluster_utils >=3.0
