"My standard" goto package for all my scripts/apps. Get argparse cli and configuration management in ONE LINE per parameter ;-) 

With minimal boilerplate to handle:
- System, default and script level configuration management files with *confuse* using *YAML* 
- *OS enviroment* does overwite settings from *YAML*
- Automagic *argparse* CLI creation and handling. Will overwrite all settings from *YAML* and *os enviroment*
- Setting the *logging* level

And:
- Creating the user default and script level *YAML* files at first run
- Optional: Saving state at exit
- and so much more ...

See:
- [confused-argparse](https://pypi.org/project/confused-argparse/) THIS PACKAGE

- [venv](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html) for python virtual enviroment

- [confuse](https://confuse.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) for handling configuration *TOML* files
- [argparse](https://docs.python.org/3/library/argparse.html) for creating a *CLI parser*
- [os.environ](https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html) for reading *enviroment* variables
- [logging](https://docs.python.org/3/library/logging.html) for *logging* to console
- [YAML](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML) for saving configuration data


## Install:
- bash Shell:
```bash
$ python3 -m venv /path/to/new/virtual/environment
$ cd /path/to/new/virtual/environment
$ source ./bin/activate
$ pip install confused-argparse
```

## First Excample
- PROGNAME.py:
```python
import confused-argparse
ca=confused-argparse.set_var()
ca('input_file', str, 'Input file: Read from a local file')
```

Behind the scenes:
- If `input_file` was set in any of the *YAML* files, it will already have a value (Actually views of values, see *confuse*)
- If `input_file` was set in the *os enviroment*, `input_file` will be set accrodingly, overriting the *YAML* setting
- If `--input_file` was set via the *command line* interface with `python3 PROGNAME.py --input_file my_file.txt`, overriting the *YAML* and *os enviroment* setting to *my_file.txt*

In the bash shell:

```bash
$ python3 PROGNAME.py -h

usage: PROGNAME.py [-h] [--input_file INPUT_FILE]

optional arguments:
  -h, --help                  show this help message and exit
  --input_file INPUT_FILE     Input file: Read from a local file
```

---

## Next level:

- PROGNAME.py:
```python
import confused-argparse
ca = confused-argparse.set_var(standard=True, description='My App: Solves a problem')
ca('input_file', str, 'Input file: Read from a local file', group='I/O')
```

Behind the scenes:
- `standard=True`:
  - There are a number of standard argparse options already set, like `--verbose`, `--debug`, `--cron`
  - Scans and read the values defined in the *os enviroment*, case independant, so also the enviroment variable `VERBOSE`
  - For excample: `--verbose` will set the logging level to *INFO*
- `description='My App: Solves a problem'`
  - argparse will print this
- `group='I/O'`:
  - *argparse* will group options with this optional parameter

```bash
$ python3 PROGNAME.py -h

usage: PROGNAME.py [-h] [--input_file INPUT_FILE] [--list_defaults] [--debug] [--verbose] [--cron]

My App: Solves a problem

optional arguments:
  -h, --help                  show this help message and exit

I/O:
  --input_file INPUT_FILE     Input file: Read from a local file [str]=''

Debug options:
Note: Will override 
  --list_defaults             List: List all Vars in dict with there Defaults [bool]=False
  --debug                     Debug: Logging DEBUG Messages (if not --cron, overrides --verbose) [bool]=False
  --verbose                   Verbose: Logging INFO Messages (if not --cron) [bool]=False
  --cron                      Called from Cronjob [bool]=False
```
