easy to define and reference config options
Project description
Introduction
econf make it easy to define config options and reference them. The options can be provided through command line or config file.
Install
$ pip install http://github.com/wangst321/econf.git
How to Use
define options
First, import econf
from econf import *
For default options, that belong to ‘default’ section:
from econf import BaseConf class DefaultConf(BaseConf): host = StrOpt(default='0.0.0.0', cmdline=True, help='ip address') port = IntOpt(default=9090, cmdline=True, help='tcp port')
For options belong to other section:
class ZKConf(BaseConf): __section__ = 'zk' hosts = StrOpt( required=True, help='list of zookeeper ip:port pair. i.e. localhost:2181') max_retry = IntOpt( default=3, help='number of tries before giving up connecting')
use options in your code
There are two ways to reference an option. First, use the specific Conf Class:
host, port = DefaultConf.host, DefaultConf.port
Second, use the general CONF:
host, port = CONF.host, CONF.port zk_hosts = CONF.zk.hosts
parse cli options and config file
If a default config is supplied:
from econf import CONF CONF('path/to/your/default.conf')
or,
from econf import CONF CONF()
Usually, this code is executed just before your service gonna start.
def run(): from econf import CONF CONF() my_service.init(CONF.host, CONF.port, ...) my_service.start()
