jgtcore

Core library for JGT utilities - configuration, settings, and utility functions.

This is a pure Python library extracted from jgtutils to provide clean programmatic access to JGT configuration and settings without CLI dependencies.

Installation

pip install jgtcore

Usage

Simple Configuration Access

import jgtcore

# Load configuration
config = jgtcore.get_config()
demo_config = jgtcore.get_config(demo=True)

# Get specific config values
user_id = jgtcore.get_config_value('user_id')
quotes_count = jgtcore.get_config_value('quotes_count', 1000)

Settings Management

import jgtcore

# Get all settings
settings = jgtcore.get_settings()

# Get specific setting with default
instrument = jgtcore.get_setting('instrument', 'EUR/USD')
timeframes = jgtcore.get_setting('_timeframes', 'D1')

Environment Setup

import jgtcore

# One-call environment setup
config, settings = jgtcore.setup_environment(demo=True)

# Check demo mode
if jgtcore.is_demo_mode():
    print("Running in demo mode")

Advanced Usage

from jgtcore import readconfig, load_settings

# Load with specific options
config = readconfig(demo=True, export_env=True)
settings = load_settings(custom_path="/path/to/settings.json")
