configglue

Is there any way to access options in a shorter format?

Asked by Stuart Metcalfe

For example, I've created my schema and got my config object as described in the getting started docs, but I have to do this to get my configuration:

config.values('__main__')['optionname']
config.values('sectionname')['optionname']

Is there any way to do something slightly shorter like this?

config.optionname <- note: no need to specify __main__
config.sectionname.optionname

With the code currently in trunk there is. The configglue helper function

>>> class MySchema(Schema):
... project = StringConfigOption(default='my-project')

>>> glue = configglue(MySchema, ['config.ini'])

returns an object which has a 'options' attribute you can use exactly as proposed.

>>> glue.options.project
'my-project'

Can you help with this problem?
