"""
The Python module ConfigParser supports configuration files with the
usual Windows .INI file syntax. The present configdata module extends
the syntax of configuration files and provides a more easy-to-use
interface to such files. Variables can also be defined on the
command-line and through environment variables in addition to the
configuration file.

"""
__author__ = 'Hans Petter Langtangen <hpl@simula.no>'

_configfile_description = """\
User-friendly reading of configuration files with an extended
Windows .INI syntax.

The configuration file has sections in square brackets
(e.g., [modes]) and option=value assignments in each section.
The extended syntax offers type specification of the options.
After the = sign the type appears in <> brackets followed by
the value, e.g.::

  [my section]
  my first option = <bool> off   # can be on, off, yes, no, 1, 0
  my second option = <float> 3.2
  my third option = <eval> [1, 4, 'tmp.ps']  # a list as option value
  my fourth option = MyClass     # no type specification here
  my fifth option = <eval> StringFunction('sin(x)*cos(x)')

The type must be bool, int, float, str, or eval.
As an example, the 'my second option' value will be a Python
float object with the value 3.2 (without this type facility,
the value would be the string "3.2"). In case of eval,
the value is processed as eval(value) such that values can become
lists, dictionaries, or other user-defined objects. In the latter
case, the globals_ keyword must be set explicitly so that this
function has access to the user's classes (eval(value, globals_)).
For example, 'my fifth option' will evaluate to StringFunction
object, but this requires supply of globals_ with the user's
imported modules (from StringFunction and math).

There is also a syntax for marking options to be read-only, i.e.,
these options are meant to be set in configuration files and
not changed later in the program. Preceeding the type specification
by an r or R indicates the read-only property, e.g.::

  my first option = r<bool> off

Options set in the configuration file can be overridden by
associated environment variables whose names are on the form::

  prefix_section_option

For example, an option 'DEBUG' in section 'globals' can have
an associated environment variable MYPACK_globals_DEBUG,
if the prefix is MYPACK. The prefix is set in a special section
called 'modes' (see below).

Options can also be overridden by command-line arguments. The
command-line options have the same names as the associated
environment variable names, but additionally prefixed by a double
hyphen, e.g. --MYPACK_globals_DEBUG.
The 'command line arguments' option in the 'modes' section
must have a true value for this functionality to be active.

Here is an example of the 'modes' section::

  [modes]
  envir prefix = MATHPACK
  command line arguments = yes

If section or option names contain space(s), the corresponding
environment variable name and command-line option have the space(s)
replaced by underscore(s), e.g.::

  MATHPACK_my_section_my_first_option
  --MATHPACK_my_section_my_first_option

Such command-line options and values are removed from sys.argv after
being read.

A convenient feature of configuration files is that variable interpolation
is possible(see the documentation of ConfigParser in the Python
Library Reference). Here is an example::

  [DEFAULT]
  path = /my/home/dir/

  [storage]
  datapath = %(path)s/data
  input = %(path)s/%(datapath)s/input

One can also provide variables for being used in variable interpolation
throught the default_dict4intpl argument to this function.

A configuration file is searched for and read in as follows
(in the listed order):

  1. basename.cfg in the default_file_location directory,
  2. basename.cfg files for each directory in other_locations list,
  4. .basename.cfg in the user's home directory,
  3. .basename.cfg in the directory where the main script is running.

This priority implies that the a config file in the current working
directory will override any user or any other system settings.
