Konfy

Konfy is a configuration management system for GUI, TUI, REPL, and CLI applications. It allows applications to load settings from multiple sources such as defaults, configuration files, environment variables, and CLI/application arguments while ensuring the highest priority value is provided to the user.

Priority Order

Settings are loaded in the following order of priority, from highest to lowest:

1. CLI / Application arguments
2. Environment variables
3. Configuration files:
   1. Application/Directory-specific config file
   2. User configuration file
   3. Default system configuration file
4. Application defaults

Examples

Here's how to use Konfy in a typical application:

Example 1: Basic Usage

1. Default Configuration

TBD

2. User Configuration

TBD

3. Environment Variables:

TBD

4. CLI Argument:

TBD

Example 2: Python Integration

from konfy import ...

TBD

Example 3: Full Configuration

Assume you have an application that supports settings for theme, timeout, and
verbose mode.

1. Default Configuration

TBD

2. User Configuration

TBD

3. Environment Variables

TBD

4. CLI Argument

TBD

The resolved configuration will be:

• theme: dark (from CLI argument)
• timeout: 45 (from environment variable)
• verbose: true (from user configuration)

By following this priority order, Konfy ensures the most relevant and
user-specified configurations are always applied, making application
configuration seamless and robust.
