Made with Python

PREFS stores a Python dictionary in a total human-readable file, the PREFS file is created when it can't find it (normally the first time you run the program), otherwise if the file already exists it just read it's content.

Installation:

On windows: pip install PREFS

On MacOS and Linux: pip3 install PREFS

Syntax:

Each PREFS file is an instance of the PREFS class:
The PREFS class has one required parameter, which is a dictionary with the default preferences (used to create the file when it can't it).

default_prefs = {
  "theme": "light", 
  "lang": "en", 
  "keybindings": {"Ctrl+C": "Copy", "Ctrl+V": "Paste", "Ctrl+X": "Cut"}
}

user_prefs = PREFS.Prefs(default_prefs)

This code will create a file like this:

#PREFS
theme='light'
lang='en'
keybindings=>
  Ctrl+C='Copy'
  Ctrl+V='Paste'
  Ctrl+X='Cut'

A total human readable file that supports cascade/tree in nested dictionaries.

Other functions

  • read_json_file().
  • read_yaml_file().
  • read_prefs_file().
  • convert_to_prefs().

Documentation

PREFS documentation can be found at https://patitotective.github.io/PREFS/docs/ with more examples and information.
