The application_properties package was born out of necessity. During the creation of the PyMarkdown project, there was a distinct need for a configuration subsystem that was able to handle more complex configuration schemas.

The application_properties library has the following advnatages:

  • Thoroughly tested
    • The project currently has over 65 tests and coverage percentages over 99%.
  • Simple... With Examples
    • The package was created with the intention of being as easy to use as possbile.
    • To that extent, there are 4 basic usage examples and over 10 advanced usage examples.
  • Complex When Required
    • The default is simplicity, but the package can step up when required to do so.
    • Any actions outside of the simple scenario of getting an optional string value should be relatively easy to request of the package API.
  • Hierarchically Aware
    • By default, uses the . character in the property names to define levels of hierarchy.
    • Hierarchy levels can be used to find only those properties that exist under a given hierarchy.
    • If desired, the ApplicationPropertiesFacade object can be used to restrict access to only those properties that exist under a given hierarchy.
  • Command Line Aware
    • The set_manual_property function allows for one or more individual properties to be supplied by the command line.
  • Extensible
    • The loading of the properties is separate from access to the values for those properties.
    • Due to the separation of the loading and accessing parts of the library, custom loading classes can be added with ease.
      • Current loading classes include loaders for Json files, with Simple Property files right around the corner
