Cheetah.SettingsManager module¶
- class Cheetah.SettingsManager.ConfigParserCaseSensitive(defaults=None, dict_type=<class 'dict'>, allow_no_value=False, *, delimiters=('=', ':'), comment_prefixes=('#', ';'), inline_comment_prefixes=None, strict=True, empty_lines_in_values=True, default_section='DEFAULT', interpolation=<object object>, converters=<object object>)¶
Bases:
ConfigParser
A case sensitive version of the standard Python ConfigParser.
- optionxform(optionstr)¶
Don’t change the case as is done in the default implemenation.
- exception Cheetah.SettingsManager.Error¶
Bases:
Exception
- class Cheetah.SettingsManager.NoDefault¶
Bases:
object
- class Cheetah.SettingsManager.SettingsManager¶
Bases:
_SettingsCollector
A mixin class that provides facilities for managing application settings.
SettingsManager is designed to work well with nested settings dictionaries of any depth.
- copySettings()¶
Returns a shallow copy of the settings dictionary
- deepcopySettings()¶
Returns a deep copy of the settings dictionary
- hasSetting(key)¶
True/False
- setSetting(name, value)¶
Set a setting in self._settings.
- setting(name, default=<class 'Cheetah.SettingsManager.NoDefault'>)¶
Get a setting from self._settings, with or without a default value
- settings()¶
Return a reference to the settings dictionary
- updateSettings(newSettings, merge=True)¶
Update the settings with a selective merge or a complete overwrite
- updateSettingsFromConfigFileObj(inFile, convert=True, merge=True)¶
See the docstring for .updateSettingsFromConfigFile()
The caller of this method is responsible for closing the inFile file object.
- updateSettingsFromConfigStr(configStr, convert=True, merge=True)¶
See the docstring for .updateSettingsFromConfigFile()
- updateSettingsFromPySrcStr(theString, merge=True)¶
Update the settings from a code in a Python src string.
- Cheetah.SettingsManager.convStringToNum(theString)¶
Convert a string representation of a Python number to the Python version
- Cheetah.SettingsManager.mergeNestedDictionaries(dict1, dict2, copy=False, deepcopy=False)¶
Recursively merge the values of dict2 into dict1.
This little function is very handy for selectively overriding settings in a settings dictionary that has a nested structure.
- Cheetah.SettingsManager.stringIsNumber(S)¶
Return True if theString represents a Python number, False otherwise. This also works for complex numbers and numbers with +/- in front.
