utf8config 0.0.2

A utf8 charset config file parser

Welcome to utf8config Documentation

utf8 format config file IO tool.

Features:

1. Comment Control. (You can choose ignore comment or not while dumping)

2. Allow unicode character.

3. Smart parser for number, string, boolean, None, list.

Example:

# content of config.ini
### DEFAULT is the default section
### DEFAULT是默认Section
[DEFAULT]
localhost = 192.168.0.1 # IP地址, 默认 192.168.0.1
port = 8080 # 端口号

### 下面的是尝试连接的最长时间
connection_timeout = 60 # 单位是秒, 默认60

# Test是用来测试各种数据类型是否能被成功解析的
# 用Configuration.load()看看会不会成功吧

[TEST]
# Single Value
# 以下是单值项
# 即非列表的值
int = 123 # 123
int_pos = +123 # 123
int_neg = -123 # -123
float = 3.14 # 3.14
float_pos = +3.14 # 3.14
float_neg = -3.14 # -3.14
str = Hello World! # str "Hello World!"
str_quote = 'Good Boy' # str "Good Boy"
str_double_quote = "Bad Boy" # str "Bad Boy"
str_quote_in_quote = '"Boy"' # str '"Boy"'
str_int = '123' # str "123"
str_float = '3.14' # str "3.14"
str_bool = 'True' # str "True"
str_path = C:\用户\管理员 # str "C:\用户\管理员"
str_utf8 = 中文 # str "中文"
bool_true = True # True
bool_yes = Yes # True
bool_false = False # False
bool_no = No # No
none_none = None # None
none_null = null # None
none = # None

# List Value
# 以下是各种列表
empty_list = , # Empty list []
int_list = 1, -2, 3 # [1, -2, 3]
int_none_list = , -2,3 # [None -2, 3]
float_list = 1.1, -2.2, 3.3 # [1.1, -2.2, 3.3]
float_none_list = , -2.2,3.3 # [None -2.2, 3.3]
str_list = a, b, c # ["a", "b", "c"]
str_single_quote_list = '1', '2', '3' # ["1", "2", "3"]
str_double_quote_list = "1", "2", "3" # ["1", "2", "3"]
str_path_list = C:\windows, C:\中文 # ["C:\windows", "C:\中文"]
str_special_list = a, '1', '3.14', "True", "no", ,"None" # ["a", "1", "3.14", "True", "no", "None"]
bool_list = True, False # [True, False]
bool_yes_no_list = Yes, No # [True, False]

Usage:

Read and Write:

from utf8config import Config, Section, Field

config = Config.load("config.ini")
for section_name, section in config.items():
    ...

section = Config["DEFAULT"]
for field_name, field in section.items():
    ...

localhost = section["localhost"]
port = section["port"]

localhost.key # "localhost"
localhost.value # "192.168.0.1"

with open("config.ini", "w") as f:
    text = config.dump("config.ini", ignore_comment=True)
    f.write(text)

Programmatically Construct Config:

config = Config()
DEFAULT = config["DEFAULT"]
DEFAULT.add_field(Field(key="localhost", value="192.168.0.1"))

TEST = Section("TEST")
TEST.add_field(Field(key="numbers", value=[1, 2, 3]))
config.add_section(TEST)
