YAML Config
===========

A Python client for reading yaml based config files

Documentation
-------------
YAML Config provides a Config Class for retrieving configuration variables from YAML based config files.

Recommended usage is to subclass this class to define default_file and/or default_config_root as necessary, or to override __init__ with relevant defaults.

.. code-block:: python

class GBRConfig(Config):
default_file = 'config.yaml'
default_config_root = os.path.join(BASE_PATH, 'config')

def __init__(self, config_file=None, config_dir=None, section=None):
super(GBRConfig, self).__init__(
config_file=config_file, config_dir=config_dir,
section=section, env_prefix='GBR_CONFIG'
)

example usage:

.. code-block:: python

CONFIG = GBRConfig()
TIMEZONE = CONFIG.get('timezone', default='utc')

Installation
------------

``pip install yaml-config``

You may setup environmental variables to the path and folder containing config files:
_DIR

_ROOT

``export GBR_CONFIG_ROOT=/path/to/your/config``
