# `yapeco`: Yet Another Python Envvar Config Object
A positively miniscule utility module to access `.env` (and otherwise environment-defined) config values in a structured way through a Python object. Created out of annoyance with not being able to autocomplete said envvars in my editor :^)
## Features & Limitations
- Case-insensitive + snake-case (i.e. `SNAKE_case`) field names
- Primitives such as `str`, `bool`, `int` and `float` are supported (no guarantees with `float` though, because, well... floating point)
- Assuming use of the above primitives, supports `Optional[*]` types (and by extension `Union[*,None]`), but no others from `typing`
- Default values through class variable assignment; assumed to be `None` for optional types
- Will (intentionally) raise a `RuntimeError` if there is no value set and no default value
- Common boolean config formats (i.e. `VAR=0/1/true/false/True/False`) work as expected
## Usage
Installation (PyPI):
```bash
pip3 install yapeco
```
A simple example:
```bash
# -- [mock environment] ---------------------------
API_KEY=abc123
DELAY_MSEC=18
FEATURE_A_ENABLED=false
FEATURE_B_ENABLED=1
```
```python
# --- contrived_config.py -------------------------
from yapeco import BaseEnvironment as Env
class Config(Env):
api_key: str
delay_msec: int
feature_a_enabled: bool
feature_a_flags: str = "-a -b -c"
feature_b_enabled: bool
feature_b_flags: Optional[str]
# --- main.py -------------------------------------
from config import Config
Config.api_key # "abc123"
Config.delay_msec # 18
Config.feature_a_enabled # False
Config.feature_a_flags # "-a -b -c"
Config.feature_b_enabled # True
Config.feature_b_flags # None
# ...
# API_KEY=def456
# FEATURE_B_ENABLED=false
Config.refresh() # update environment
Config.api_key # "def456"
Config.feature_b_enabled # False
```
## Development
Requires [poetry](https://python-poetry.org/).
```bash
poetry install # install dependencies
poetry build # build package
poetry run pytest . # run tests
poetry run pyright . # run type checks
```
## Feature Backburner
- Support implied types (type conversion currently depends on `cls.__annotations__`)
## Extra
Pedantic note:
