buttons_and_dials

Customizable configs for your packages.

Use case

You have your potato software that somewhere within it's contents contains a file default-potato.toml describing some settings.

Let say you want to enable your users to customize those settings:

• by providing a file potato-settings.toml in the CWD.
• by providing a toml file pointed by environment variable POTATO_FILE=some/path
• by passing command line arguments to some script

Then you should use buttons_and_dials.

Snippet

In your code, simply define

from buttons_and_dials import ConfigSet

configs = ConfigSet(
    set_name='potato-settings',
    initial_settings_path='internal/path/default-potato.toml'
    check_cwd=True,
    argv_prefix='--cfg'
)

And from now on, you can access attributes of configs object and enjoy.
