mojo-startup 2.0.1

Automation Mojo Startup Package

mojo-startup

This package sets up a pattern for extremely early pre-configuration of variable extensibility hook for the startup configuration. This module looks for a single environment variable to be set:

MJR_STARTUP_SETTINGS

The value of this variable is accessed like so:

from mojo.startup.startupvariables import MOJO_STARTUP_VARIABLES

print(MOJO_STARTUP_VARIABLES.MJR_STARTUP_SETTINGS)

The MJR_STARTUP_SETTINGS is an environment variable that is is set to the path for a config file that should point to the configuration file that is used to startup the environment of a process.

The default value for the MJR_STARTUP_SETTINGS variable is ~/.mojo.config.

The mojo-startup module makes a singleton ConfigParser available for other modules to use. This configuration parser can be accessed by:

from mojo.startup.wellknown import StartupConfigSingleton

cparser = StartupConfigSingleton()

defaults_section = cparser["DEFAULTS"]
someval = defaults_section["SOME_VARIABLE"]

Description

This module does one very important thing. It establishes the path for all other ‘mojo’ packages on where to load default config from. This is very important because it provides extensibility as early as possible before the running of any code.

The pattern established for defaults for variables is: * Variable is set to a hard coded default * Startup configuration is checked for an override * The environment variables are checked for an override
