Vars file
=========

The vars collector gets the vars from YAML files like this one::

extends: inherit.yaml

vars:
string_var: a string
int_var: 42
interpreted_var: __import__('datetime').date.today()
combined_var: 'Today: {interpreted_var:%Y-%m-%d}'

interpreted-vars:
- interpreted_var

The ``inherit.yaml`` is an other file with the same syntax that will provide
initial vars.

The ``vars`` section is where we define the vars values, the YAML files
support typing, than ``42`` will be an integer.

The ``interpreted-vars`` is a list of variable that the value will be
interpreted, than the ``interpreted_var`` will have the value ``4``,
See: `eval() <https://docs.python.org/2/library/functions.html#eval>`_.

The ``combined_var`` reuse a predefined variable and format,
See: `str.format() <https://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#formatstrings>`_.
