Project description

Stela

Easily manage your application settings and secrets

PyPI Build PyPI - Python Version

Welcome to Stela

Stela were the "information files" of ancient times. This library aims to simplify your project configurations, proposing an opinionated way to manage your project using dotenv files, or using any source you need.

Install

$ pip install stela

Documentation


Key features:

  1. Learn once, use everywhere. Stela aims to be easily used in any Python project or Framework.
  2. Separate settings from secrets from environments. Instead of using a single dotenv file to store all your settings, we use multiple dotenv files, one for each environment. This way, you can split secrets from settings, and you can have different values for the same setting in different environments.
  3. Easy to implement. Use the command stela init to initialize your project and configure .env and .gitignore files.
  4. Easy to use. To access you configuration just include from stela import env in your code. Simple as that.
  5. One Interface, Any Source. You're not limited to dotenv files. Create your custom logic to import data from any source you need.

Quick Start

Run Stela initialization command. This command will create .env, .env.local and .gitignore files.

$ stela init --use-default
# Add this to .env
API_URL="http://localhost:8000"
DB_URL="db://user:password@db:0000/name"
# my_script.py
from stela import env

API_URL = env.API_URL  # http://localhost:8000
DATABASE_URL_CONNECTION = env.DB_URL  # db://user:password@db:0000/name
# Add to .env.local
DB_URL="db://real_user:real_password@real_db:0000/name"
# my_script.py
from stela import env

API_URL = env.API_URL  # http://localhost:8000
DATABASE_URL_CONNECTION = env.DB_URL  # db://real_user:real_password@real_db:0000/name

That's it! Just check our Documentation for tons of customization and advice.

Migrating from version 4.x

  • Stela 5.0 is a major rework. The old format still works, but we strongly advise updating your code as soon as possible. Please check this document to understand how to update your existing project.
  • Drop support to Python 3.8

Not working?

Don't panic. Get a towel and, please, open an issue.
