conson 3.2.1

Module for creating parameters, saving them and loading from JSON formatted file.

pip install conson

from .conson import Conson

Usage:

1. Conson(cfile="config.json", cfilepath=os.getcwd(), salt="ch4ng3M3pl3453"): You can set file name/extension and path to config file directory. By default, current working directory is used.

2. Instance call, parameters: Calling Conson instance will return all kwargs that has already been set by create method. Values modified with .veil method will be encrypted and presented in hex value. Parameters:

    <instance>.file
    <instance>.file = <filename>, <cfilepath=os.getcwd()>
   
    <instance>.salt
    <instance>.salt = <your salt>
   

3. .create(key, *value): Creates parameter in key=value pair. Accepts single value or list of values. Example:

    settings = Conson()
   
    settings.create(key1, value1, value2, value3)
    settings.create(key2, [value1, value2, value3])
    settings.create(key3, {"subkey1": "value1", "subkey2": value2, "subkey3": value3})
   

4. .dispose(key): Removes created parameter from instance.

5. .dump() Removes all created parameters. Useful in case when only one instance is invoked and multiple configuration files are being loaded - allows to prevent mixing parameters simply by dumping them out.

6. .veil(key, index="0", marker=""): Passes created value through Fernet SHA-256 encryption. We point the key and value index number. Secret key is based on system-related UUID, so decryption is meant to happen only on device the encryption has place. If you want to reach value in nested dictionary, you can use subkey OR it's subkey's index number. You can also pass marker char (or chars) to put as first and last char of returned value, it will help with identifying veiled strings (you can combine unveil with slicing). Example:

      settings.veil("setting1", marker="$")
      settings.veil("setting3", 1)
      settings.veil("setting3", "key", "<>") 
   

   Result print(settings()):

      "setting1": "$674141414141426c65566a6c6123123330617a41416c6330307a3667794a41535965537733423sdvb347705f464a5648435a39596b586a45304b31506232646b645353355f2d4c4646623546fggf3395a6c4e38595f7358676269513d3d$"
      "setting3": "value1", "674141414141426c65566a6c6123123330617a41416c6330307a3667794a41535965537733423sdvb347705f464a5648435a39596b586a45304b31506232646b645353355f2d4c4646623546fggf3395a6c4e38595f7358676269513d3d"
      "setting3": {"key": "<674141414141426c65566a6c6123123330617a41416c6330307a3667794a41535965537733423sdvb347705f464a5648435a39596b586a45304b31506232646b645353355f2d4c4646623546fggf3395a6c4e38595f7358676269513d3d>"}
   

7. .unveil(value): Allows to decrypt veiled(encrypted) values. Value must be already present in instance (by .create or .load). Example:

   settings.unveil(settings()["setting1"])
   settings.unveil(settings()["setting3"][1])
   settings.unveil(settings()["setting3"]["key"])
   

8. .save(verbose=False): Saves all parameters created to file. Prints result of operation (success/failure) if verbose parameter has been given.

9. .load(verbose=False): Loads json formatted settings from file. Prints result of operation (success/failure) if verbose parameter has been given.
