autoyaml 2019.9.23.950

Load and save config files for python projects

autoyaml because config should be easy

Autoconfig is a config generator that takes a dictionary, writes it to a file and loads it back as a dictionary.

The aim of this project is to standardise the way python projects create and feed parameters into python applications without having to rewrite the same IO functions every time.

Installation

pip install autoyaml

Usage

Write your config either from an interactive terminal or from a script

from autoyaml import write_config

conf = {
   'parameter1': 1,
   'parameter2': 'something'
}

application_name = 'app_name'

write_config(conf,application_name)

Load your config from another python application

from autoyaml import load_config

class My_Class(object):
   def __init__(self, **kwargs):
      self.parameter1 = kwargs['parameter1']
      self.parameter2 = kwargs['parameter2']
      self.show_parameters()

   def show_parameters(self):
      print('parameter1 : {}'.format(self.parameter1))
      print('parameter2 : {}'.format(self.parameter2))


if __name__ == "__main__":
   my_class = My_Class(**load_config('app_name'))
