gin.

Gin is a system for configuring python code that is still very much in early phases, but very powerful.

Intro to Gin Required Settings Functions as Config Blacklist External Configurations

Notes

Sometimes you'd like a setting to be manditory. The files below reflect that.

config.gin

simulate.n_samples = 200

simulate.py

import gin
import random

@gin.configurable
def simulate(n_samples=gin.REQUIRED)
    return sum(random.random() for i in range(n_samples))

if __name__ == "__main__":
    gin.parse_config_file("config.gin")
    print(simulate())
