  • confuse

    painless YAML config files for Python

  • I have been using confuse here and there for simple projects. It was a configuration tool that spun off from a small team making a Python music library manager. Both confuse and dynaconf allow default key configuration, layers of configs that can override others, etc. But with confuse I eventually found my use-case to diverge from the one that the music-manager-app devs had in mind.
