"""Configuration file parser.
A setup file consists of sections, lead by a "[section]" header,
and followed by "name: value" entries, with continuations and such in
the style of RFC 822.
The option values can contain format strings which refer to other values in
the same section, or values in a special [DEFAULT] section.
For example:
something: %(dir)s/whatever
would resolve the "%(dir)s" to the value of dir. All reference
expansions are done late, on demand.
Intrinsic defaults can be specified by passing them into the
ConfigParser constructor as a dictionary.
class:
ConfigParser -- responsible for parsing a list of
configuration files, and managing the parsed database.
methods:
__init__(defaults=None)
create the parser and specify a dictionary of intrinsic defaults. The
keys must be strings, the values must be appropriate for %()s string
interpolation. Note that `__name__' is always an intrinsic default;
its value is the section's name.
sections()
return all the configuration section names, sans DEFAULT
has_section(section)
return whether the given section exists
has_option(section, option)
return whether the given option exists in the given section
options(section)
return list of configuration options for the named section
read(filenames)
read and parse the list of named configuration files, given by
name. A single filename is also allowed. Non-existing files
are ignored. Return list of successfully read files.
readfp(fp, filename=None)
read and parse one configuration file, given as a file object.
The filename defaults to fp.name; it is only used in error
messages (if fp has no `name' attribute, the string `<???>' is used).
get(section, option, raw=False, vars=None)
return a string value for the named option. All % interpolations are
expanded in the return values, based on the defaults passed into the
constructor and the DEFAULT section. Additional substitutions may be
provided using the `vars' argument, which must be a dictionary whose
contents override any pre-existing defaults.
getint(section, options)
like get(), but convert value to an integer
getfloat(section, options)
like get(), but convert value to a float
getboolean(section, options)
like get(), but convert value to a boolean (currently case
insensitively defined as 0, false, no, off for False, and 1, true,
yes, on for True). Returns False or True.
items(section, raw=False, vars=None)
return a list of tuples with (name, value) for each option
in the section.
remove_section(section)
remove the given file section and all its options
remove_option(section, option)
remove the given option from the given section
set(section, option, value)
set the given option
write(fp)
write the configuration state in .ini format
