A library to read config files written in Python.
Project description
Overview
A library for reading config files written in Python. Since Python config files are not sandboxed, you should only read config files that you trust.
By controlling the globals, locals, and builtins that are passed in to tthe config file, you can ‘pre-populate’ the config file with values, and you can control (to a very limited extent) what Python features are available to the config file.
Two interfaces are provided:
A low-level interface for that takes strings.
A high-level interfaces that supports nested configuration files.
In addition, there is a simple function to convert dicts to namedtuples.
Typical usage
Low-level interface
High-level interface
to_namedtuple
Change log
0.3 2016-08-22 Eric V. Smith
Fixed fl_validator. Switched to a single namespace, instead of using globals and locals (This is because at module level, they’re the same). Switch to a dict-based interface, instead of always using namedtuples. Added to_namedtuple.
0.2 2016-08-21 Eric V. Smith

0.1 2016-08-20 Eric V. Smith
