- """Configuration file parser.
-
- A setup file consists of sections, lead by a "[section]" header,
- and followed by "name: value" entries, with continuations and such in
- the style of rfc822.
-
- The option values can contain format strings which refer to other
- values in the same section, or values in a special [DEFAULT] section.
- For example:
-
- something: %(dir)s/whatever
-
- would resolve the "%(dir)s" to the value of dir. All reference
- expansions are done late, on demand.
-
- Intrinsic defaults can be specified by passing them into the
- ConfigParser constructor as a dictionary.
-
- class:
-
- ConfigParser -- responsible for for parsing a list of
- configuration files, and managing the parsed database.
-
- methods:
-
- __init__(defaults=None) -- create the parser and specify a
- dictionary of intrinsic defaults. The
- keys must be strings, the values must
- be appropriate for %()s string
- interpolation. Note that `name' is
- always an intrinsic default; it's value
- is the section's name.
-
- sections() -- return all the configuration section names, sans DEFAULT
-
- options(section) -- return list of configuration options for the named
- section
-
- read(*filenames) -- read and parse the list of named configuration files
-
- get(section, option, raw=0) -- return a string value for the named
- option. All % interpolations are
- expanded in the return values, based on
- the defaults passed into the constructor
- and the DEFAULT section.
-
- getint(section, options) -- like get(), but convert value to an integer
-
- getfloat(section, options) -- like get(), but convert value to a float
-
- getboolean(section, options) -- like get(), but convert value to
- a boolean (currently defined as 0
- or 1, only)
