envTOML 0.1.3

A simple way of using environment variables in TOML configs (via interpolation)

envTOML is an answer to a fairly simple problem: including values from environment variables in TOML configuration files. In this way, it is very similar to both envyaml and varyaml which provide very similar functionality for YAML and which greatly inspired this small package.

Example

Suppose we have the following configuration saved in config.toml

[db]
host = "$DB_HOST"
port = "$DB_PORT"
username = "$DB_USERNAME"
password = "$DB_PASSWORD"
name = "my_database"

with the environment variables being set to the following

DB_HOST=some-host.tld
DB_PORT=3306
DB_USERNAME=user01
DB_PASSWORD=veryToughPas$w0rd

this config can then be parsed with envTOML in the following way:

import envtoml

cfg = envtoml.load(open('./config.toml'))

print(cfg)
# {'db': {'host': 'some-host.tld',
#   'port': 3306,
#   'username': 'user01',
#   'password': 'veryToughPas$w0rd',
#   'name': 'my_database'}}
