exception oslo_config.cfg.ArgsAlreadyParsedError(msg=None)¶

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.Error

Raised if a CLI opt is registered after parsing.

class oslo_config.cfg.BoolOpt(name, **kwargs)¶

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.Opt

Boolean options.

Bool opts are set to True or False on the command line using –optname or –nooptname respectively.

In config files, boolean values are cast with Boolean type.

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.Error

Raised if there is an error parsing a config file.

exception oslo_config.cfg.ConfigFileValueError(msg=None)¶

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.ConfigSourceValueError

Raised if a config file value does not match its opt type.

exception oslo_config.cfg.ConfigFilesNotFoundError(config_files)¶

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.Error

Raised if one or more config files are not found.

exception oslo_config.cfg.ConfigFilesPermissionDeniedError(config_files)¶

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.Error

class oslo_config.cfg.ConfigOpts¶

Bases: collections.abc.Mapping

Config options which may be set on the command line or in config files.

ConfigOpts is a configuration option manager with APIs for registering option schemas, grouping options, parsing option values and retrieving the values of options.

It has built-in support for config_file and config_dir options.

class GroupAttr(conf, group)¶

Bases: collections.abc.Mapping

Helper class.

Represents the option values of a group as a mapping and attributes.

class StrSubWrapper(conf, group=None, namespace=None)¶

Bases: object

Helper class.

Exposes opt values as a dict for string substitution.

class SubCommandAttr(conf, group, dest)¶

Bases: object

Helper class.

Represents the name and arguments of an argparse sub-parser.

class Template(template)¶

Bases: string.Template

idpattern = '[_a-z][\\._a-z0-9]*'¶

pattern = re.compile('\n \\$(?:\n (?P<escaped>\\$) | # Escape sequence of two delimiters\n (?P<named>[_a-z][\\._a-z0-9]*) | # delimiter and a Python identifier\n , re.IGNORECASE|re.VERBOSE)¶

clear()¶

Reset the state of the object to before options were registered.

This method removes all registered options and discards the data from the command line and configuration files.

Any subparsers added using the add_cli_subparsers() will also be removed as a side-effect of this method.

clear_default(name, group=None)¶

Clear an override an opt’s default value.

Clear a previously set override of the default value of given option.

Parameters

name – the name/dest of the opt
group – an option OptGroup object or group name

Raises

NoSuchOptError, NoSuchGroupError

clear_override(name, group=None)¶

Clear an override an opt value.

Clear a previously set override of the command line, config file and default values of a given option.

Parameters

name – the name/dest of the opt
group – an option OptGroup object or group name

Raises

NoSuchOptError, NoSuchGroupError

property config_dirs¶

disallow_names = ('project', 'prog', 'version', 'usage', 'default_config_files', 'default_config_dirs')¶

find_file(name)¶

Locate a file located alongside the config files.

Search for a file with the supplied basename in the directories which we have already loaded config files from and other known configuration directories.

The directory, if any, supplied by the config_dir option is searched first. Then the config_file option is iterated over and each of the base directories of the config_files values are searched. Failing both of these, the standard directories searched by the module level find_config_files() function is used. The first matching file is returned.

Parameters: name – the filename, for example ‘policy.json’
Returns: the path to a matching file, or None

get_location(name, group=None)¶

Return the location where the option is being set.

Parameters

name (str) – The name of the option.
group (str) – The name of the group of the option. Defaults to 'DEFAULT'.

Returns

LocationInfo

class oslo_config.cfg.ConfigParser(filename, sections)¶

Bases: oslo_config.iniparser.BaseParser

{'DEFAULT': {'key': [value, ...], ...},
 ...}

Also populates self._normalized which looks the same but with normalized section names.

assignment(key, value)¶: Called when a full assignment is parsed.

error_no_section()¶

new_section(section)¶: Called when a new section is started.

parse()¶

exception oslo_config.cfg.ConfigSourceValueError(msg=None)¶

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.Error, ValueError

Raised if a config source value does not match its opt type.

exception oslo_config.cfg.DefaultValueError(msg=None)¶

Bases: oslo_config.cfg.Error, ValueError

Raised if a default config type does not fit the opt type.

class oslo_config.cfg.DeprecatedOpt(name, group=None)¶

Bases: object

Represents a Deprecated option.

Here’s how you can use it:

oldopts = [cfg.DeprecatedOpt('oldopt1', group='group1'),
           cfg.DeprecatedOpt('oldopt2', group='group2')]
cfg.CONF.register_group(cfg.OptGroup('group1'))
cfg.CONF.register_opt(cfg.StrOpt('newopt', deprecated_opts=oldopts),
                      group='group1')

For options which have a single value (like in the example above), if the new option is present (“[group1]/newopt” above), it will override any deprecated options present (“[group1]/oldopt1” and “[group2]/oldopt2” above).

If no group is specified for a DeprecatedOpt option (i.e. the group is None), lookup will happen within the same group the new option is in. For example, if no group was specified for the second option ‘oldopt2’ in oldopts list:

oldopts = [cfg.DeprecatedOpt('oldopt1', group='group1'),
           cfg.DeprecatedOpt('oldopt2')]
cfg.CONF.register_group(cfg.OptGroup('group1'))
cfg.CONF.register_opt(cfg.StrOpt('newopt', deprecated_opts=oldopts),
                      group='group1')

then lookup for that option will happen in group ‘group1’.

If the new option is not present and multiple deprecated options are present, the option corresponding to the first element of deprecated_opts will be chosen.

Multi-value options will return all new and deprecated options. So if we have a multi-value option “[group1]/opt1” whose deprecated option is “[group2]/opt2”, and the conf file has both these options specified like so:

[group1]
opt1=val10,val11

[group2]
opt2=val21,val22

Then the value of “[group1]/opt1” will be [‘val10’, ‘val11’, ‘val21’, ‘val22’].

New in version 1.2.

Return a list of default configuration dirs.

Parameters

project – an optional project name
prog – the program name, defaulting to the basename of sys.argv[0], without extension .py
extension – the type of the config directory. Defaults to ‘.conf.d’

We default to two config dirs: [${project}.conf.d/, ${prog}.conf.d/]. If no project name is supplied, we only look for ${prog.conf.d/}.

And we look for those config dirs in the following directories:

~/.${project}/
~/
/etc/${project}/
/etc/
${SNAP_COMMON}/etc/${project}
${SNAP}/etc/${project}

We return an absolute path for each of the two config dirs, in the first place we find it (iff we find it).

For example, if project=foo, prog=bar and /etc/foo/foo.conf.d/, /etc/bar.conf.d/ and ~/.foo/bar.conf.d/ all exist, then we return [‘/etc/foo/foo.conf.d/’, ‘~/.foo/bar.conf.d/’]

Parameters

project – an optional project name
prog – the program name, defaulting to the basename of sys.argv[0], without extension .py
extension – the type of the config file

And we look for those config files in the following directories:

~/.${project}/
~/
/etc/${project}/
/etc/
${SNAP_COMMON}/etc/${project}
${SNAP}/etc/${project}

We return an absolute path for (at most) one of each the default config files, for the topmost directory it exists in.

For example, if project=foo, prog=bar and /etc/foo/foo.conf, /etc/bar.conf and ~/.foo/bar.conf all exist, then we return [‘/etc/foo/foo.conf’, ‘~/.foo/bar.conf’]

If no project name is supplied, we only look for ${prog}.conf.

oslo_config.cfg.set_defaults(opts, **kwargs)¶

oslo_config.fixture module¶

class oslo_config.fixture.Config(conf=<oslo_config.cfg.ConfigOpts object>)¶

Bases: fixtures.fixture.Fixture

Allows overriding configuration settings for the test.

conf will be reset on cleanup.

config(**kw)¶

Override configuration values.

The keyword arguments are the names of configuration options to override and their values.

If a group argument is supplied, the overrides are applied to the specified configuration option group, otherwise the overrides are applied to the default group.

load_raw_values(group=None, **kwargs)¶

Load raw values into the configuration without registering them.

This method adds a series of parameters into the current config instance, as if they had been loaded by a ConfigParser. This method does not require that you register the configuration options first, however the values loaded will not be accessible until you do.

register_cli_opt(opt, group=None)¶

Options registered in this manner will automatically be unregistered during cleanup.

If a group argument is supplied, it will register the new option to that group, otherwise the option is registered to the default group.

CLI options must be registered before the command line and config files are parsed. This is to ensure that all CLI options are shown in –help and option validation works as expected.

register_cli_opts(opts, group=None)¶

This works in the same manner as register_opt() but takes a list of options as the first argument. All arguments will be registered to the same group if the group argument is supplied, otherwise all options will be registered to the default group.

CLI options must be registered before the command line and config files are parsed. This is to ensure that all CLI options are shown in –help and option validation works as expected.

register_opt(opt, group=None)¶

Options registered in this manner will automatically be unregistered during cleanup.

If a group argument is supplied, it will register the new option to that group, otherwise the option is registered to the default group.

register_opts(opts, group=None)¶

setUp()¶

Prepare the Fixture for use.

This should not be overridden. Concrete fixtures should implement _setUp. Overriding of setUp is still supported, just not recommended.

After setUp has completed, the fixture will have one or more attributes which can be used (these depend totally on the concrete subclass).

Raises: MultipleExceptions if _setUp fails. The last exception captured within the MultipleExceptions will be a SetupError exception.
Returns: None.

set_config_dirs(config_dirs)¶

Specify a list of config dirs to read.

This method allows you to predefine the list of configuration dirs that are loaded by oslo_config. It will ensure that your tests do not attempt to autodetect, and accidentally pick up config files from locally installed services.

set_config_files(config_files)¶

Specify a list of config files to read.

This method allows you to predefine the list of configuration files that are loaded by oslo_config. It will ensure that your tests do not attempt to autodetect, and accidentally pick up config files from locally installed services.

set_default(name, default, group=None)¶

Set a default value for an option.

This method is not necessarily meant to be invoked directly. It is here to allow the set_defaults() functions in various Oslo libraries to work with a Config fixture instead of a ConfigOpts instance.

Use it like:

class MyTest(testtools.TestCase):

    def setUp(self):
        super(MyTest, self).setUp()
        self.conf = self.useFixture(fixture.Config())

    def test_something(self):
        some_library.set_defaults(self.conf, name='value')
        some_library.do_something_exciting()
