globconf 0.0.1

global configparser object to be used across modules

globconf

Creates a global configparser object, regardless of the project and module in need of it

Getting Started

In project:

from globconf import config
# config will attempt to read local config.ini file if present - otherwise:

if 'important section' not in config.sections():
    config.read_string("""
    [important sectioj]
    host = critical-system.com
    user = REST_USER
    pwd = REST_PASSWORD
    verify_ssl = false
    """)
# or config.read('some_other_config.ini')

# load class using globconf.config

In modules:

from globconf import config
class module(object):
    def __init__(self):
        sec = 'service now'
        if not sec in config.sections():
            raise configparser.NoSectionError(sec)
        cfg = config[sec]
        if not cfg.getboolean('verify_ssl', fallback=True):
            import urllib3
            urllib3.disable_warnings(InsecureRequestWarning)

        for key in ['host', 'user', 'pwd']:
            if key not in cfg:
                raise Exception('{} section needs the {} setting'.format(sec, key))
        self.cfg = cfg  # this is where the class stores all the needed vars..

And your module is happy as long as someone has initialised the needed section in the global config.
