Python Configuration File

A Python Configuration File is a software configuration file that specifies python application settings and python project parameters for python system configuration.

• AKA: Python Settings File, Python Config File, Python Setup File.
• Context:
  • It can typically store Python Configuration Data using python configuration formats and python configuration syntax.
  • It can typically define Python Configuration Parameters including python configuration values and python configuration options.
  • It can typically support Python Configuration Parsing through python configuration readers and python configuration loaders.
  • It can typically enable Python Configuration Management via python configuration updates and python configuration validation.
  • It can typically organize Python Configuration Structures with python configuration sections and python configuration hierarchy.
  • ...
  • It can often implement Python Configuration Overrides using python configuration precedence and python configuration merge.
  • It can often facilitate Python Configuration Environments through python configuration profiles and python configuration variants.
  • It can often provide Python Configuration Templates with python configuration defaults and python configuration examples.
  • It can often maintain Python Configuration Version Control via python configuration tracking and python configuration history.
  • ...
  • It can range from being a Simple Python Configuration File to being a Complex Python Configuration File, depending on its python configuration complexity.
  • It can range from being a Static Python Configuration File to being a Dynamic Python Configuration File, depending on its python configuration generation.
  • It can range from being a Local Python Configuration File to being a Distributed Python Configuration File, depending on its python configuration scope.
  • It can range from being a Plain Text Python Configuration File to being a Structured Python Configuration File, depending on its python configuration format.
  • ...
  • It can integrate with Python Configuration Librarys for python configuration processing.
  • It can connect to Python Configuration Systems for python configuration management.
  • It can utilize Python Configuration Parsers for python configuration reading.
  • It can interface with Python Configuration Validators for python configuration verification.
  • It can coordinate with Python Configuration Tools for python configuration automation.
  • ...
• Example(s):
  • Python Project Configuration Files, such as:
    • Python Project Files for python project setup.
    • Pyproject.toml Files for python project standard configuration.
    • Setup.cfg Files for python setuptools configuration.
  • Python Application Configuration Files, such as:
    • Config.py Files for python application settings.
    • Settings.ini Files for python ini configuration.
    • Config.json Files for python json configuration.
  • Python Environment Configuration Files, such as:
    • .env Files for python environment variables.
    • Dotenv Files for python environment configuration.
  • Python Testing Configuration Files for python test settings.
  • Python Logging Configuration Files for python log configuration.
  • ...
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Python Source Files, which contain python executable code rather than python configuration.
  • Database Configuration Files, which configure database systems rather than python applications.
  • System Configuration Files, which configure operating systems without python specificity.
  • Binary Configuration Files, which use binary formats incompatible with python configuration parsing.
