A library for parsing .envi files and configuration files.

Project description

load_xl - A Python Configuration Parser Library

load_xl is a simple and easy to use library for parsing environment variable and configuration files in Python. It provides a convenient way to load environment variables from .envi files and parse unique syntax configuration files. Installation

The package can be installed using pip.

pip install load-xl

Usage

Here's how to use load_xl in your Python code:

import load_xl
# Load environment variables from .envi file
load_xl.load_envi_file('.envi')

# Read configuration file
config = load_xl.read_config_file('.configx')
  • The load_envi_file function takes a file path to a .envi file and loads the defined environment variables to the environment.

  • The read_config_file function takes a file path to a unique syntax configuration file and returns a dictionary of all the keys and values defined in the file. .envi file format

The .envi file should contain one environment variable per line in the following format:

# Key and Value
KEY=VALUE

Lines starting with a # symbol will be ignored as comments. Unique syntax configuration file format

The unique syntax configuration file should follow the following rules:

  • Lines starting with a - symbol are treated as environment variables and split on the : sign.
  • Lines starting with & or % are ignored as comments.
  • Only values that start with $ are taken into consideration.

Example

# This is a comment line, ignored by the parser
& This is a comment line &, ignored by the parser
% This is a comment line %, ignored by the parser


# Keys and Values
$ key1: value1 # This line follows the correct syntax for key-value pair
$ key2: value2
- key3: value3 # This line follows the correct syntax for environment variable

Error and Exception handling

The library provides a comprehensive error and exception handling mechanism to ensure the stability and reliability of your code.
