Zensols Utilities

Command line, configuration and persistence utilities generally used for any more than basic application.

The command line interface library intends to make command line execution and configuration easy. The library supports (among other features) an mnemonic centric way to tie a command line an action to a Python 3 handler code segment. Features include:

• Better command line parsing than [optparse]. This a binding to from a command line option using an action mnemonic to invocation of a handler.
• Better application level support for configuration than [configparser]. Specifically, optional configuration and configuration groups.

This package also has other packages to:

• Streamline in memory and on disk persistence
• Construct objects using configuration files (both INI and YAML).
• Multi-processing work with a persistence layer.

Obtaining

The easiest way to install the command line program is via the pip installer:

pip3 install zensols.util

Command Line Interface

The API provides an advanced command line interface library for quickly easily tying action based commands, such as operands given after the program name, to Python classes.
