It reads settings that were initially configured during plugin installation via hcli and stored in ida-config.json, providing a simple API to fetch those values within plugin code. The library exposes methods to get, set, delete, check existence of, and list configuration values, though the primary use case is reading values that were declared in the plugin's ida-plugin.json file.\n\nThe library is tightly coupled to IDA Pro's plugin environment and does not function outside of it. It depends on ida-hcli as its only runtime dependency. Configuration changes are intended to be made through hcli or the IDA Pro GUI rather than programmatically, though programmatic access is available. The package also includes a graphical settings manager plugin that can be installed separately to browse and edit all plugin settings with validation and UI controls.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are developing IDA Pro plugins and need to access configuration values set during installation. The package is actively maintained, has low install friction, and is purpose-built for this use case. Not applicable outside of IDA Pro plugin development."},"id":"ida-settings","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/ida-settings","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/ida-settings.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/ida-settings/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-06-26","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"unclear","name":"ida-settings","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Fetch configuration values for IDA Pro plugins"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":80260,"position":14302,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"3.5.1"}
