Load configs from json files
Project description
jconf
Package is used to load config from json files. Path to config can lead either to directory with a bunch of json files, or to a single json file. Contents is parsed and stored into config object, allowing attribute-based access to different options.
Installation
Package can be installed with pip:
pip install confj
Usage
Usage of this utility is very simple: import Config
class and load your config
with load
method. Path to configs might be set via environment variable
JSON_CONFIG_PATH
or passed directly to the load
call:
from confj import Config
config = Config()
config.load('/path/to/config')
If path to config is a directory, each file will be available as an attribute
of config
object. Otherwise, if path is a file, config
object will store
parsed json from given file, allowing access to first-level json-data via
attributes.
Config can be loaded during initialization step, just set autoload
parameter
to True
. Optionally path to load configs from might be passed during
initialization.
from confj import Config
config = Config(default_config_path='/path/to/config', autoload=True)
Config search precedence
If you directly call load
method with config_path
passed as parameter, then
this path is used. If no config_path
provided or autoload
option was used,
then default_config_path
from initialization step is used. The last option is
to set JSON_CONFIG_PATH
environment value. If the search is failed on all
three steps, then ConfigException
is raised.
