Mini Shell
Here's an example configuration file:
.. topic:: example.cfg
:class: write-file
::
[A Section]
dir=frob
long: this value continues
on the next line
.. invisible-code-block: python
# change to the temp directory
import os
original_dir = os.getcwd()
os.chdir(tempdir.path)
To parse this file using the :mod:`ConfigParser` module, you would
do the following:
.. code-block:: python
from configparser import ConfigParser
config = ConfigParser()
config.read('example.cfg')
The items in the section are now available as follows:
>>> for name, value in sorted(config.items('A Section')):
... print('{0!r}:{1!r}'.format(name, value))
'dir':'frob'
'long':'this value continues\non the next line'
.. invisible-code-block: python
# change out again
import os
os.chdir(original_dir)
