ihih — simple configuration parsers

Overview

ihih is an attempt to provide simple configuration parsers (for Python) with a dictionary-like interface.

It try to be flexible and let you alter the syntax by sub-classing it.

Why?

Because I Hate INI files. I don’t need sections, i think ConfigParser is a pain to use...

And also because in my opinion configuration files should not be executed (ie: i feel bad having a Python file as a configuration system, sure it is flexible, but, you know... [if you don’t, you probably don’t need this]).
