repoze.configuration README
repoze.configuration is a package that software developers can use
as a configuration system. It allows the use of YAML as a
configuration language. Application-defined “directives” can be
plugged in to repoze.configuration using one or more Python
setuptools entry points. For example, you could make sense out of the
following YAML using repoze.configuration and a custom “appsettings”
directive:
--- !appsettings
port_number = 8080
reload_templates = true
--- !include
filename = anotherfile.yml
Please see docs/index.rst or http://docs.repoze.org/configuration for more documentation.
repoze.configuration Changelog
0.8 (2012-03-29)
This release is the last which will maintain support for Python 2.4 /
Python 2.5.
Added support for continuous integration using tox and jenkins.
Added ‘setup.py dev’ alias (runs setup.py develop plus installs
nose and coverage).
Instances of repoze.configuration.context.Context now inherit
from dict. Previously, the context object was guaranteed to
have a subattr named registry which was presumed to be dictlike;
interpolation used this dictionary to resolve names. This
“registry”, for interpolation purposes, is now assumed to be the
context itself. A property alias named registry has been added
to the context for bw compat.
The declaration object’s registry property is now deprecated;
instead declaration.context should be used directly.
Added a class, repoze.configuration.imperative.ImperativeConfig,
which allows a configuration object to offer an imperative API that is
based on directives that are discoverable as entry points.
0.7 (2010-02-24)
Allow repoze.configuration.context.Context constructor to take
arbitrary keyword arguments. These kw arguments are added to the
instance __dict__ of the result context object.
The return value of repoze.configuration.context.Context.execute
is no longer the registry attribute of the context object; it is
instead None. The registry object is no longer “special”.
0.6 (2009-12-30)
When context.action was called with a None discriminator
(the default), it would conflict with other actions that did not
supply a discriminator either.
If a repoze.configuration.directive entry point name begins with
the characters ‘tag:’, treat the name as a YAML tag URI. YAML tag
URIs can be aliased at the top of YAML files to shorter !bang!
names via a YAML %TAG directive (see YAML global tag prefix
documentation.
The intent is to encourage directive writers to register both a
“short name” (a word) and a tag URI for the same entry point
function. Doing so means that a config file writer can optionally
use a tag URI (!<tag:repoze.org,2009:pypes/server>) in place of
a “short name” (!server) when the short version can’t be used
due to a conflict between two directives in separate packages that
share the same short name.
For example, an application might register both server = pypes.deploy.directives:server and
tag:repoze.org,2009:pypes/server = pypes.deploy.directives:server in a
repoze.configuration.directive section within setup.py. A
config file that used the above entry points might equivalently use
any of the three below forms as necessary within a given YAML file:
# tag alias
%TAG !pypes! tag:repoze.org,2009:pypes/
# short name
--- !server
name: main
port: 8082
host: 0.0.0.0
# rely on tag expansion from %TAG directive
--- !pypes!server
name: main
port: 8082
host: 0.0.0.0
# use literal tag URI
--- !<tag:repoze.org,2009:pypes/server>
name: main
port: 8082
host: 0.0.0.0
0.5 (2009-07-26)
Add documentation about interpolation.
Show only line numbers in error reports on console (previously both
line numbers and column numbers were reported, but the column
numbers seem to be meaningless in most debugging scenarios).
Fix an off by one error in line number reporting in errors.
Interpolation variables now try to use the registry first, but fall
back to “stack” values; the most important of which is %(here)s;
this interpolation variable can be used in any config file. It will
be the absolute path to the parent directory of the configuration
file in which it was declared. Any stack variable will be
overridden permanently (for interpolation purposes) by a registry
variable.
0.4 (2009-07-25)
Totally backwards incompatible.
Instead of accepting “context”, “structure” and “node”, directives
now accept “declaration” objects. A declaration object has most of
the methods that used to be supplied by the “context”, and some new
ones. The docs have been updated.
0.3 (2009-07-24)
Backwards incompatibility: directives must now accept three
arguments: context, structure, and node (previously they had only
accepted context and structure).
error method added to context.
Make discriminator conflict detection actually work.
Show actual lines from conflicting files when possible during a
discriminator conflict.
Ignore import errors when trying to resolve entry point loads.
Add a popvalue method to the context; it works like getvalue
except it pops the value out of the structure supplied instead of
just getting it.
It was not possible to resolve the single dot . using
repoze.configuration.context.Context.resolve to the current package.
Using a Python %(interpolation)s marker in any string value allows
you to replace values in strings. For example, using “%(here)s” in
a string value would attempt to resolve the name “here” from the
registry as a key.
Use pyyaml’s SafeLoader rather than Loader: we don’t really need to
be able to construct arbitrary Python objects.
0.2 (2009-07-13)
Trying to read any directive section that wasn’t a YAML mapping
caused a TypeError (e.g. construct_scalar takes no argument 'deep').
0.1 (2009-06-22)
Initial release.
