Python Config Parser Library

confparser is a config parser by yml file or dictionary.

In confparser, you can easily access to value through dot notation.

Like, conf.debug, conf.server.dev.debug.

Installation

pip3 install confparser

Usage

Config by .yml file

Create yml file

debug: True
server:
  dev:
    debug: True
    port: 8000
  prod:
    debug: False
    port: 80

Import confparser and insert your yml file.

from confparser import ConfParser


config = ConfParser(path='./config.yml').to_obj()

print(config)
# {'debug': True, 'server': {'dev': {'debug': True, 'port': 8000}, 'prod': {'debug': False, 'port': 80}}}

print(config.debug)  
# True

print(config.server)
# {'dev': {'debug': True, 'port': 8000}, 'prod': {'debug': False, 'port': 80}}

print(config.server.dev)
# {'debug': True, 'port': 8000}

print(config.server.dev.debug)  
# True

print(config.server.dev.port)  
# 8000

print(config.server.prod.debug)  
# False

print(config.server.prod.port)  
# 80

Config by dictionary

Import confparser and insert your dictionary.

from confparser import ConfParser

conf_dict = {
    'debug': True,
    'server': {
        'dev': {
            'debug': True,
            'port': 8000,
        },
        'prod': {
            'debug': False,
            'port': 80,
        },
    }
}
config = ConfParser(conf_dict=conf_dict).to_obj()

print(config)
# {'debug': True, 'server': {'dev': {'debug': True, 'port': 8000}, 'prod': {'debug': False, 'port': 80}}}

print(config.debug)  
# True

print(config.server)
# {'dev': {'debug': True, 'port': 8000}, 'prod': {'debug': False, 'port': 80}}

print(config.server.dev)
# {'debug': True, 'port': 8000}

print(config.server.dev.debug)  
# True

print(config.server.dev.port)  
# 8000

print(config.server.prod.debug)  
# False

print(config.server.prod.port)  
# 80

Note

path and conf_dict cannot be used at once.

Dependencies

To use parsing yml file, pyyaml is needed.

But it will be install automatically with confparser so you don't have to install manually.
