Cock stands for «**co**nfiguration file with cli**ck**». It is a configuration aggregator, which stands on shiny [`click`](https://github.com/pallets/click) library.

# Reason
No module for click with flat configuration file, which will mimic actual click options. There are [`click-config`](https://pypi.org/project/click-config) and [`click-config-file`](https://pypi.org/project/click-config-file), but they targets another goals.

# Features
- Aggregate configuration file and cli options into flat configuration object.
- Respect all click checks and conversions (`required` attribute forbidden, since it breaks internal logic).
- `dict`-like, flat, sorted, dot-accessed configuration object.
- Entrypoint builder.

# License
`cock` is offered under MIT license.

# Requirements
- python 3.7+

# Usage
``` python
from cock import build_entrypoint, Config, Option


def main(config: Config):
    print(config)


options = [
    Option("a_b_c", default="foo"),
    Option("b_c_d", default="bar"),
]
entrypoint = build_entrypoint(main, options, auto_envvar_prefix="EXAMPLE", show_default=True)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    entrypoint(prog_name="example")
```
This is almost pure click setup:
```
$ python example.py --help
Usage: example [OPTIONS] [CONFIGURATION_FILE]

Options:
  --a-b-c TEXT  [default: foo]
  --b-c-d TEXT  [default: bar]
  --help        Show this message and exit.  [default: False]
```
But there is a `CONFIGURATION_FILE` argument. Lets see use cases.
### All deafults
```
$ python example.py
{'configuration_file': None, 'a_b_c': 'foo', 'b_c_d': 'bar'}
```
### From environment variable
```
$ EXAMPLE_A_B_C=foo-env python example.py
{'configuration_file': None, 'a_b_c': 'foo-env', 'b_c_d': 'bar'}
```
### From cli arguments
```
$ EXAMPLE_A_B_C=foo-env python example.py --a-b-c foo-cli
{'a_b_c': 'foo-cli', 'configuration_file': None, 'b_c_d': 'bar'}
```
### From configuration yaml file
``` yaml
a-b-c: foo-file
```
```
$ EXAMPLE_A_B_C=foo-env python example.py --a-b-c foo-cli config-example.yml
{'a_b_c': 'foo-file', 'configuration_file': '/absolute/path/to/config-example.yml', 'b_c_d': 'bar'}
```

Priority is obvious: **file > cli arguments > env variables**

**Note**: for file `a-b-c` is the same as `a_b_c` or `a-b_c`. Use whatever you prefer.

As described in features paragraph, configuration is flattened before chaining with click options. So all configuration files listed below are equal:
``` yaml
a_b_c: foo-file
```
``` yaml
a:
  b:
    c: foo-file
```
``` yaml
a-b:
  c: foo-file
```
If provided file have key crossings:
``` yaml
a-b_c: foo-file1
a:
  b-c: foo-file2
```
Then `RuntimeError` will be raised.

`cock` uses `pyyaml` library for config loading, so it supports `yaml` and `json` formats, but this can be improved later if someone will need more configuration file types.

Configuration can be defined as dictionary too:
``` python
from cock import build_entrypoint, Option, Config


def main(config: Config):
    print(config)


options = {
    "a": {
        "b": {
            "c": Option(default="foo"),
        },
    },
    "a-b_d": Option(default="bar"),
}
entrypoint = build_entrypoint(main, options, auto_envvar_prefix="EXAMPLE", show_default=True)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    entrypoint(prog_name="example")
```

**Note**: for dictionaries you can use same rules in naming and structure as for files.

Configuration can be defined as multiple sources:
``` python
from cock import build_entrypoint, Option, Config


def main(config: Config):
    print(config)


dict_options = {"a-b-c": Option(default="foo")}
list_options = [Option("b_c-d", default="bar")]
entrypoint = build_entrypoint(main, dict_options, list_options,
                              auto_envvar_prefix="EXAMPLE", show_default=True)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    entrypoint(prog_name="example")
```

You can also gather all defaults from options as a `Config`:
``` python
from cock import get_options_defaults, Option

options = {
    "a": {
        "b": {
            "c": Option(default="foo"),
        },
    },
}
config = get_options_defaults(options)
assert config == {"a_b_c": "foo"}
assert config.a_b_c == "foo"
```

`Config` is an extended (with dot-access) version of `sortedcontainers.SortedDict`:
``` python
>>> from cock import Config
>>> c = Config(b=1, a=2)
Config({'a': 2, 'b': 1})
>>> c["a"], c.b
(2, 1)
>>> c.z
...
KeyError: 'z'
>>> c.items()
SortedItemsView(Config({'a': 2, 'b': 1}))
>>> c["0"] = 0
>>> c
Config({'0': 0, 'a': 2, 'b': 1})
```

# API
``` python
def build_entrypoint(
    main: Callable[[Config], Any],
    *options_stack: Union[dict, List[Union[Option, click.option]]],
    **context_settings
) -> Callable[..., Any]:
```
- `main` is a user-space function of exactly one argument, a dot-accessed config wrapper.
- `*options_stack` is a sequence of dicts and/or lists described above.
- `**context_settings` propagated to `click.command` decorator.

``` python
def get_options_defaults(
    *options_stack: Union[dict, List[Union[Option, click.option]]]
) -> Config:
```
- `*options_stack` is a sequence of dicts and/or lists described above.

``` python
class Option(
    name: Optional[str] = None,
    **attributes)
```
- `name` is a name in resulting `Config` object, which passed to `main`.
    - `name` can be set only once, further set will lead to exception.
    - `name` field will be converted to «underscore» view (e.g. `a-b_c` internaly will be converted to `a_b_c`).
- `**attributes` propagated to `click.option` decorator.
    - `required` attribute forbidden, since it breaks internal logic.


# Deprecations and removals
### `0.11.0`
Deprecations:
- Usage of `click.option` as option.
- `build_options_from_dict` function, since it is obsolete with new api.
