yamlsettings 1.0.1

Yaml Settings Configuration Module

A Settings Configuration Module.

A library to help manage project settings, without having to worry about accidentally checking non-public information, like api keys. Along with environment variable support.

Example setup

Python Code - Base Functions

import yamlsettings


app_settings = yamlsettings.load('defaults.yaml')
app_settings.update(yamlsettings.load('settings.yaml'))
yamlsettings.update_from_env(app_settings)
user = app_settings.myproj.databases.primary_sql.user

# Program Defaults, do not edit this file!!!
# All values should be overridden in the following ways:
# 1. In the 'settings.yaml' file.
# 2. With environment variables. Example myproj.databases.primary_sql.user can
#    be overridden with MYPROJ_DATABASES_PRIMARY_SQL_USER.

Example package resource loading

"""Parameters that can be passed are:
 resource: The resource to load from the package (default: settings.yaml)
 env: When set the yamldict will update with env variables (default: true)
 prefix: Prefix for environment loading (default: None)
 persist: When set the yamldict will only be loaded once. (default: true)
"""
yamlsettings.load('package://example')
yamlsettings.load('package://example?resource=diff.yaml')
yamlsettings.load('package://example?prefix=MY_FUN&persist=false')

Plugins

This project also supports plugins. The base project has two plugins:

• file: Loads from the file system.

• package: Loads settings from a package resource.

Example Plugin:

setup.py

from setuptools import setup

setup(
    name='yamlsettings-example',
    version='1.0.0',
    author='Kyle Walker',
    author_email='[e-mail]',
    description='Quick Example',
    py_modules=['yamlsettings_example'],
    entry_points={
        'yamlsettings10': [
            'ext = yamlsettings_example:ZxcExtension',
        ],
    },
)

yamlsettings_example.py

import yamlsettings


class ZxcExtension(yamlsettings.YamlSettingsExtension):
    """Quick Example Plugin

    Standard file opener, but will merge in values passed to kwargs
    """
    protocols = ['zxc']

    @classmethod
    def load_target(cls, scheme, path, fragment, username,
                    password, hostname, port, query,
                    load_method, **kwargs):
        full_path = (hostname or '') + path
        obj = load_method(open(full_path, **query))
        obj.update(kwargs)
        return obj

usage

import yamlsettings
yamlsettings.load("zxc://defaults.yaml", foo='bar')

# Note: this is automatically detected when the extension is installed
# alternatively the extension can be manually registered with:
yamlsettings.registry.add(ZxcExtension)
