iniparse is a INI parser for Python which is:
|
|
- Compatiable with ConfigParser:
|
|
Backward compatible implementations of ConfigParser,
|
|
RawConfigParser, and SafeConfigParser are included that are
|
|
API-compatible with the Python standard library.
|
|
They pass all the unit tests in Python-2.4.4.
|
|
|
|
- Preserves structure of INI files:
|
|
Order of sections & options, indentation, comments, and blank
|
|
lines are preserved as far as possible when data is updated.
|
|
|
|
- More convenient:
|
|
Values can be accessed using dotted notation (cfg.user.name),
|
|
or using container syntax (cfg['user']['name']).
|
|
|
|
It is very useful for config files that are updated both by users and by
|
|
programs, since it is very disorienting for a user to have her config
|
|
file completely rearranged whenever a program changes it. iniparse also
|
|
allows making the order of entries in a config file significant, which is
|
|
desirable in applications like image galleries.
