pyfigure 1.0.4

Generate configuration files for classes.

pyfigure

Generate configuration files for classes.

Installation

pip install pyfigure

Usage

To generate a configuration file for a class, you must extend the class with Configurable, from the pyfigure module.

Then, to add options to the configuration, create a new Config class, and add variables of the Option class.

option_name: Option(
    default,
    type,
    parse,
    description,
)

Where the arguments are as follows:

argument	description	default value
default	The default value of the option	n/a
type	The python type the option is	str
parse	A function that parses the given value, returns a new value or throws an exception	lambda x: x
description	A comment to explain what the option is for	n/a

file.py

from pyfigure import Configurable, Option

class SomeClass(Configurable):

    class Config:
        string_option: Option("default", str, description="Any string works here.")
        integer_option: Option(24, int, description="Any integer here.")
        float_option: Option(15.55, float, description="Any float.")
    
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__()
        print(self.config)
        # {'string_option': 'default', 'integer_option': 24, 'float_option': 15.55}

SomeClass()

This class, when initialized, will create a new file named:

file.toml

string_option = "default" # Any string works here.
integer_option = 24 # Any integer here.
float_option = 15.55 # Any float.

Need to place the file at a different location? Simply pass an argument in the super().__init__() function.

def __init__(self):
    super().__init__('new/location/file.toml')

To-Do

• Rework the type checking system to utilize the typing library (Somehow).
• Support nested dictionaries.
