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>, allow_unnamed_section=False)¶
- 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.
