psyc - Parameter Store Your Configs!

psyc is a Python tool for managing config files in AWS Parameter Store.

Installation for use in a different project

pip install psyc and then add psyc to your project's requirements.txt file

Usage

1. Create a file .psyc.state in the package directory containing a json in the form:

{
		"config" : "name_of_config"
}

2. From the package directory, show all available commands with: psyc --help

Note: The included .psyc file in this repo contains the namespace for this project. Change the name of the 'namespace' value in order to use for other projects.

Development

If you just want to work on the psyc code:

1. Check out the psyc repo
2. Create & activate a virtualenv
3. Run pip install -e . to install in "editable" mode.
4. Run pip install -r requirements.txt to ensure you also get the dev dependencies, like flake8 and pre-commit.
5. Run pre-commit install to install the git pre-commit linting and formatting hook

If you want to develop psyc while testing/using in project "foo"

1. Navigate to your local checkout of foo
2. Activate the foo virtualenv. Note: just because foo isn't a python project doesn't mean it can't have a virtualenv.
3. Run pip install -e /path/to/your/psyc/repo
4. You can now make changes to the psyc code while testing the changes in foo.
