ConfigClasses

Build Status AppVeyor Coverage Docs Pypi Versions License

Think python's dataclasses module PEP-557 for configuration. Pulls in configuration from various sources into a single integrated, global configuration object. The configuration data can be reloaded on demand.

Read the Documentation

Features

  • Globally accessable configuration classes
  • Easily pull from many sources of configuration:
    • Environment variables
    • Command line arguments
    • Dotenv files
    • Json files
    • Toml files
    • Ini files
    • Consul Key/Value store
    • Planned sources: AWS Parameter Store, Etcd, Redis
  • prioritization when multiple sources are used together.
  • Typed configuration values out of the box
    • primitive types supported out of the box
    • Enum types can be used to specify valid values
    • converter functions can turn stringly typed or primitive types into complex types such as dicts or classes

Quickstart

from configclasses import configclass, LogLevel, Environment

# Wrap your configuration class in the `configclass` decorator
# By default, it looks for matching variables in the environment.
@configclass
class Configuration:
    HOST: str
    PORT: int
    DB_HOST: str = "localhost"  # Default if `DB_HOST` is not set as an environment variable.
    DB_PORT: int = 5432         # Default if `DB_PORT` is not set as an environment variable.
    ENVIRONMENT: Environment    # Enum used to specify the set of valid values
    LOG_LEVEL: LogLevel         # Enum with the same values as python's logging level constants

# Instantiating a `Configuration` will always return the same object
config = Configuration()

# access fields by name
config.HOST == "localhost"

# `int` typed fields will be ints
config.PORT == 8080

# Fields with `Enum` types will have variants as values
config.ENVIRONMENT == Environment.Development

# Reload config values from sources
config.reload()

# Configuration objects can now have different values
config.ENVIRONMENT == Environment.Production


# Config classes can also be configured with other `sources`
from configclasses.sources import DotEnvSource, EnvironmentSource

@configclass(sources=[DotEnvSource(), EnvironmentSource()])
class Configuration:
    HOST: str
    PORT: int
    DB_ADDRESS: str = "localhost"
    DB_PORT: int = 5432
    ENVIRONMENT: Environment
    LOG_LEVEL: LogLevel

# First, a `.env` file will be searched for values, then
# any values that are not present there will be searched
# for in the program's environment.
config = Configuration()

TODO

  • Reload method
  • CLI source
  • Deal with sources that only provide stringly typed values and values that provide other primitives
  • Type converters
  • Multiple named configuration objects
  • Some sources might be case-insensitive.
  • Async/Sync versions of sources
  • Research and design push updates (as opposed to polling updates)
  • Better error messages when config values are missing from all sources
  • Audit exception types raised.
  • Comprehensive docs Includes docs on adding your own sources.
