Coil: A Configuration Library.
Introduction
============
Coil is a configuration file format that is parsed into a tree of
dict like Struct objects. The format supports inheritance, allowing
complicated configurations to be as compact as possible.
Design Goals
============
General design/implementation goals, some have been met, others are
still in progress.
- Support Twisted and non-Twisted reactor driven Python programs.
- Scalable to complex configurations, easily avoiding duplication.
- Orthogonal to code; code should not be required to know about the
config system used, it should be regular Python or Twisted code.
- Minimal boilerplate.
