Adapter based configuration handler (supports ENV and AWS SSM).

Project description

blinkist-config-python

The package simplifies accessing different configuration stores. The current supported stores are: ENV - read from the application's environment variable SSM - read from the AWS SSM Parameter Store

Usage

ENV

import blinkistconfig.Config

# Setup the Config to use the ENV as config store
config = blinkistconfig.Config(env="development", app_name="my_nice_app", adapter_type="ENV")

my_config_value = config.get("some/folder/config")

# This is being translated to ENV["SOME_FOLDER_CONFIG"]

SSM

For SSM this tool simulates namespace/directory functionality with each application having its own. By default requesting a parameter myparam1 within the application called my_nice_app will query the SSM parameter store for /application/my_nice_app/myparam1.

This harmonizes nicely with the ability of the SSM param store to do a prefix search. The /application/my_nice_app prefix is the default "private" scope.

import blinkistconfig.Config

# setup the Config to use the SSM as config store
config = blinkistconfig.Config(env="development", adapter_type="SSM", app_name="my_nice_app")

my_config_value = config.get("some/folder/config")

# This will try to get a parameter from SSM at "/application/my_nice_app/some/folder/config"

It is also possible to also have other scopes, possibly shared between the applications. For example

my_config_value = config.get("another/config", scope="global")

# This will replace `my_nice_app` with `global` and try to resolve "/application/global/another/config"
