Install
$ pip install dynaconf
Initialize Dynaconf on project root directory
$ cd path/to/your/project/
$ dynaconf init -f toml
⚙️ Configuring your Dynaconf environment
------------------------------------------
🐍 The file `config.py` was generated.
🎛️ settings.toml created to hold your settings.
🔑 .secrets.toml created to hold your secrets.
🙈 the .secrets.* is also included in `.gitignore`
beware to not push your secrets to a public repo.
🎉 Dynaconf is configured! read more on https://dynaconf.com
TIP: You can select
toml|yaml|json|ini|pyondynaconf init -f <fileformat>toml is the default and also the most recommended format for configuration.
Dynaconf init creates the following files
.
├── config.py # This is from where you import your settings object (required)
├── .secrets.toml # This is to hold sensitive data like passwords and tokens (optional)
└── settings.toml # This is to hold your application settings (optional)
On the file config.py Dynaconf init generates the following boilerpate
from dynaconf import Dynaconf
settings = Dynaconf(
envvar_prefix="DYNACONF", # export envvars with `export DYNACONF_FOO=bar`.
settings_files=['settings.yaml', '.secrets.yaml'], # Load files in the given order.
)
TIP: You can create the files yourself instead of using the
initcommand as shown above and you can give any name you want instead of the defaultconfig.py(the file must be in your importable python path) - See more options that you can pass toDynaconfclass initializer on https://dynaconf.com
Using Dynaconf
Put your settings on settings.{toml|yaml|ini|json|py}
username = "admin"
port = 5555
database = {name='mydb', schema='main'}
Put sensitive information on .secrets.{toml|yaml|ini|json|py}
password = "secret123"
IMPORTANT:
dynaconf initcommand puts the.secrets.*in your.gitignoreto avoid it to be exposed on public repos but it is your responsibility to keep it safe in your local environment, also the recommendation for production environments is to use the built-in support for Hashicorp Vault service for password and tokens.
Optionally you can now use environment variables to override values per execution or per environment.
# override `port` from settings.toml file and automatically casts as `int` value.
export DYNACONF_PORT=9900
On your code import the settings object
from path.to.project.config import settings
# Reading the settings
settings.username == "admin" # dot notation with multi nesting support
settings.PORT == 9900 # case insensitive
settings['password'] == "secret123" # dict like access
settings.get("nonexisting", "default value") # Default values just like a dict
settings.databases.name == "mydb" # Nested key traversing
settings['databases.schema'] == "main" # Nested key traversing
