You instantiate a ConfigurationManager, add settings definitions (string, integer, boolean, etc.), then call retrieve() with a list of sources; it merges them and returns a single configuration object with all your settings as attributes.\n\nThe library is designed to reduce boilerplate when building programs that need to read settings from many places. Instead of writing separate parsers for each source, you declare what settings exist and let setoptconf handle the lookup and override logic. It has no runtime dependencies, making it lightweight to add to a project.","worth_installing":"No. The package is abandoned (last commit 2021-09-10, over 1800 days ago) with no active maintenance. While it has no known vulnerabilities and low install friction, the lack of maintenance means no bug fixes, security updates, or compatibility work for future Python versions. For new projects, consider actively maintained alternatives."},"id":"setoptconf","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/setoptconf","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/setoptconf.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/setoptconf/"},"maintenance":{"status":"abandoned"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2021-09-09","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"setoptconf","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"A module for retrieving program settings from various sources in a consistant method."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":138132,"position":11343,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.3.0"}
