recap package¶

The recap package. The most important classes, CfgNode and URI are available as top-level exports.

Submodules¶

Configuration management by extending yacs.config.CfgNode.

class recap.config.CfgNode(init_dict=None, key_list=None, new_allowed=False)¶

Bases: yacs.config.CfgNode

A subclass of yacs’ CfgNode that additionally implements inheritance of configuration files and is compatible with recap URIs.

classmethod load_yaml_with_base(filename: os.PathLike) → recap.config.CfgNode ¶

Load a YAML configuration file that may inherit from other YAML files.

Parameters: filename (os.PathLike) – the path to the YAML file (can be a recap URI)
Returns: the loaded configuration
Return type: CfgNode

merge_with_dict(overrides: Dict[str, Any])¶

Merge a dict of configurations into this configuration object.

The dict must contain string keys. The configuration hierarchy is accessed using the “.” delimiter.

Parameters: overrides (Dict[str, Any]) – the dict of configurations to merge (overwrite)

params_dict() → Dict[str, Any]¶

Obtain a key-value map representing the configuration settings.

The keys use the “.” delimiter to denote going down a level in the configuration hierarchy.

Module for conveniently managing paths through the URI class which is fully compatible with pathlib.Path.

recap.path_manager.PathManager: recap.path_manager.PathManagerBase = <ObjectProxy at 0x7efd4dc04948 for PathManagerBase>¶: The public path manager instance.

class recap.path_manager.PathManagerBase¶

Bases: object

Base class for a path manager.

This class simultaneously acts as a context manager for the currently active path manager of the URI class.

Decorator to register a path handler for a given URI scheme.

resolve(path: os.PathLike) → pathlib.Path¶

Resolve a path (which might be a pathlib.Path) to a local path.

class recap.path_manager.PathTranslator¶

Bases: abc.ABC

Abstract class representing a path translator that can translate a specific type of URIs to local paths.

class recap.path_manager.URI(*args, **kwargs)¶

Bases: recap.path_manager._URIBase

A class representing a recap URI that is lazily evaluated to a local path when it is used.

It is fully compatible with pathlib.Path.

is_absolute() → bool¶: True if the path is absolute (has both a root and, if applicable, a drive).

recap.path_manager.register_translator(scheme: str, path: pathlib.Path)¶

Convenience method to register a path translator that forwards a URI scheme to a local path.
