Read and write python config files non-destructively (preserves comments and line-order)
Turns this kind of thing:
foo = True
bar = None
baz = whatever
qux = apples,bananasInto this kind of thing:
{ foo: true
, bar: null
, baz: "whatever"
, qux: ["apples", "bananas"]
}(comments are stored in meta-data keys __lines and __keys)
npm install --save pyconfvar pyconf = require('pyconf');
// alias for fs.readFile() then pyconf.parse()
pyconf.readFile("/path/to/foo.conf", function (err, obj) {
console.log(obj);
});
// alias for pyconf.stringify() then safeReplace.writeFile()
pyconf.writeFile("/path/to/foo.conf", obj, function (err, obj) {
console.log("wrote file");
});Note: the writeFile function uses safe-replace so that it will work even in environments where race conditions are possible and will also create a backup file whatever.conf.bak of the config being overwritten.

.parse(str, cb) // => err, object
.stringify(obj, cb) // => err, text
.readFile(filename, cb) // => err, object
