**ConfigMate** streamlines heavyweight config parsing into a sleek, zero-boilerplate experience that lets you configure with confidence.

## Key Features

- *Extensible file format support*: Automatic detection & parsing of all standard config file formats.
- *Environment variable interpolation*: Parse environment variables while keeping defaults in your configuration file.
- *Override files*: Segregate base configuration management and DEV/STAG/PROD overrides in separate files.
- *CLI support*: Override configuration values with files or values directly from an automatically generated command line interface.
- *Type validation*: Custom validation support, and seamless extension for Pydantic's fantastic validation capabilities.

## Get Started with ConfigMate

ConfigMate simplifies your configuration management. Get started with these easy steps:

### Installation

Install ConfigMate with all standard features:

```bash
pip install "configmate[standard]"
```

Alternatively, install with specific features (e.g., Pydantic):
```bash
pip install "configmate[pydantic]"
```

#### Set Up Configuration
1. Create a Configuration File:
In this example we will do YAML, but ConfigMate supports all standard config file formats(json, toml, ini - you name it):

```yaml
# config.yaml
Database configuration:
    host: localhost
    port: ${DB_PORT:8000}
```

2. Load your config in python:
Use ConfigMate to load and validate configuration in your script:
```python
# example.py
import configmate
import dataclasses

@dataclasses.dataclass
class DatabaseConfig:
    host: str
    port: int

config = configmate.get_config(
    "config.yaml", 
    section='Database configuration', 
    validation=DatabaseConfig
)
print(config)
```

3. Run Your Script with Different Configurations
Execute your script, and override configurations using environment variables or command-line arguments:

```bash
# Default configuration
python example.py 
>> DatabaseConfig(host='localhost', port=8000)

# Override port using an environment variable
DB_PORT=9000 python example.py
>> DatabaseConfig(host='localhost', port=9000)

# Override host using a command-line argument
python example.py ++host foreignhost
>> DatabaseConfig(host='foreignhost', port=8000)
```
