1974
        Test the ConfigObj against a configspec.
1975
        
1976
        It uses the ``validator`` object from *validate.py*.
1977
        
1978
        To run ``validate`` on the current ConfigObj, call: ::
1979
        
1980
            test = config.validate(validator)
1981
        
1982
        (Normally having previously passed in the configspec when the ConfigObj
1983
        was created - you can dynamically assign a dictionary of checks to the
1984
        ``configspec`` attribute of a section though).
1985
        
1986
        It returns ``True`` if everything passes, or a dictionary of
1987
        pass/fails (True/False). If every member of a subsection passes, it
1988
        will just have the value ``True``. (It also returns ``False`` if all
1989
        members fail).
1990
        
1991
        In addition, it converts the values from strings to their native
1992
        types if their checks pass (and ``stringify`` is set).
1993
        
1556.2.1 by Aaron Bentley
Switched to ConfigObj 4.2.0
1994
        If ``preserve_errors`` is ``True`` (``False`` is default) then instead
1995
        of a marking a fail with a ``False``, it will preserve the actual
1996
        exception object. This can contain info about the reason for failure.
1997
        For example the ``VdtValueTooSmallError`` indeicates that the value
1998
        supplied was too small. If a value (or section) is missing it will
1999
        still be marked as ``False``.
2000
        
2001
        You must have the validate module to use ``preserve_errors=True``.
2002
        
2003
        You can then use the ``flatten_errors`` function to turn your nested
2004
        results dictionary into a flattened list of failures - useful for
2005
        displaying meaningful error messages.

    INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES
2978
    ====================
2979
    
2980
    (I have removed a lot of needless complications - this list is probably not
2981
    conclusive, many option/attribute/method names have changed)
2982
    
2983
    Case sensitive
2984
    
2985
    The only valid divider is '='
2986
    
2987
    We've removed line continuations with '\'
2988
    
2989
    No recursive lists in values
2990
    
2991
    No empty section
2992
    
2993
    No distinction between flatfiles and non flatfiles
2994
    
2995
    Change in list syntax - use commas to indicate list, not parentheses
2996
    (square brackets and parentheses are no longer recognised as lists)
2997
    
2998
    ';' is no longer valid for comments and no multiline comments
2999
    
3000
    No attribute access
3001
    
3002
    We don't allow empty values - have to use '' or ""
3003
    
3004
    In ConfigObj 3 - setting a non-flatfile member to ``None`` would
3005
    initialise it as an empty section.
3006
    
3007
    The escape entities '&mjf-lf;' and '&mjf-quot;' have gone
3008
    replaced by triple quote, multiple line values.
3009
    
3010
    The ``newline``, ``force_return``, and ``default`` options have gone
3011
    
3012
    The ``encoding`` and ``backup_encoding`` methods have gone - replaced
3013
    with the ``encode`` and ``decode`` methods.
3014
    
3015
    ``fileerror`` and ``createempty`` options have become ``file_error`` and
3016
    ``create_empty``
3017
    
3018
    Partial configspecs (for specifying the order members should be written
3019
    out and which should be present) have gone. The configspec is no longer
3020
    used to specify order for the ``write`` method.
3021
    
3022
    Exceeding the maximum depth of recursion in string interpolation now
3023
    raises an error ``InterpolationDepthError``.
3024
    
3025
    Specifying a value for interpolation which doesn't exist now raises an
3026
    error ``MissingInterpolationOption`` (instead of merely being ignored).
3027
    
3028
    The ``writein`` method has been removed.
3029
    
3030
    The comments attribute is now a list (``inline_comments`` equates to the
3031
    old comments attribute)

    ISSUES
3034
    ======
3035
    
1556.2.1 by Aaron Bentley
Switched to ConfigObj 4.2.0
3036
    ``validate`` doesn't report *extra* values or sections.
3037
    
1185.12.49 by Aaron Bentley
Switched to ConfigObj
3038
    You can't have a keyword with the same name as a section (in the same
3039
    section). They are both dictionary keys - so they would overlap.
3040
    
1556.2.1 by Aaron Bentley
Switched to ConfigObj 4.2.0
3041
    ConfigObj doesn't quote and unquote values if ``list_values=False``.
3042
    This means that leading or trailing whitespace in values will be lost when
3043
    writing. (Unless you manually quote).
3044
    
1185.12.49 by Aaron Bentley
Switched to ConfigObj
3045
    Interpolation checks first the 'DEFAULT' subsection of the current
3046
    section, next it checks the 'DEFAULT' section of the parent section,
3047
    last it checks the 'DEFAULT' section of the main section.
3048
    
3049
    Logically a 'DEFAULT' section should apply to all subsections of the *same
3050
    parent* - this means that checking the 'DEFAULT' subsection in the
3051
    *current section* is not necessarily logical ?
3052
    
3053
    In order to simplify unicode support (which is possibly of limited value
3054
    in a config file) I have removed automatic support and added the
3055
    ``encode`` and ``decode methods, which can be used to transform keys and
3056
    entries. Because the regex looks for specific values on inital parsing
3057
    (i.e. the quotes and the equals signs) it can only read ascii compatible
3058
    encodings. For unicode use ``UTF8``, which is ASCII compatible.
3059
    
3060
    Does it matter that we don't support the ':' divider, which is supported
3061
    by ``ConfigParser`` ?
3062
    
3063
    The regular expression correctly removes the value -
3064
    ``"'hello', 'goodbye'"`` and then unquote just removes the front and
3065
    back quotes (called from ``_handle_value``). What should we do ??
3066
    (*ought* to raise exception because it's an invalid value if lists are
3067
    off *sigh*. This is not what you want if you want to do your own list
3068
    processing - would be *better* in this case not to unquote.)
3069
    
3070
    String interpolation and validation don't play well together. When
3071
    validation changes type it sets the value. This will correctly fetch the
3072
    value using interpolation - but then overwrite the interpolation reference.
3073
    If the value is unchanged by validation (it's a string) - but other types
3074
    will be.

3077
    List Value Syntax
3078
    =================
3079
    
3080
    List values allow you to specify multiple values for a keyword. This
3081
    maps to a list as the resulting Python object when parsed.
3082
    
3083
    The syntax for lists is easy. A list is a comma separated set of values.
3084
    If these values contain quotes, the hash mark, or commas, then the values
3085
    can be surrounded by quotes. e.g. : ::
3086
    
3087
        keyword = value1, 'value 2', "value 3"
3088
    
3089
    If a value needs to be a list, but only has one member, then you indicate
3090
    this with a trailing comma. e.g. : ::
3091
    
3092
        keyword = "single value",
3093
    
3094
    If a value needs to be a list, but it has no members, then you indicate
3095
    this with a single comma. e.g. : ::
3096
    
3097
        keyword = ,     # an empty list
3098
    
3099
    Using triple quotes it will be possible for single values to contain
3100
    newlines and *both* single quotes and double quotes. Triple quotes aren't
3101
    allowed in list values. This means that the members of list values can't
3102
    contain carriage returns (or line feeds :-) or both quote values.
3103
      
3104
    CHANGELOG
3105
    =========
3106
    
1556.2.1 by Aaron Bentley
Switched to ConfigObj 4.2.0
3107
    2006/02/04
3108
    ----------
3109
    
3110
    Removed ``BOM_UTF8`` from ``__all__``.
3111
    
3112
    The ``BOM`` attribute has become a boolean. (Defaults to ``False``.) It is
3113
    *only* ``True`` for the ``UTF16`` encoding.
3114
    
3115
    File like objects no longer need a ``seek`` attribute.
3116
    
3117
    ConfigObj no longer keeps a reference to file like objects. Instead the
3118
    ``write`` method takes a file like object as an optional argument. (Which
3119
    will be used in preference of the ``filename`` attribute if htat exists as
3120
    well.)
3121
    
3122
    Full unicode support added. New options/attributes ``encoding``,
3123
    ``default_encoding``.
3124
    
3125
    utf16 files decoded to unicode.
3126
    
3127
    If ``BOM`` is ``True``, but no encoding specified, then the utf8 BOM is
3128
    written out at the start of the file. (It will normally only be ``True`` if
3129
    the utf8 BOM was found when the file was read.)
3130
    
3131
    File paths are *not* converted to absolute paths, relative paths will
3132
    remain relative as the ``filename`` attribute.
3133
    
3134
    Fixed bug where ``final_comment`` wasn't returned if ``write`` is returning
3135
    a list of lines.
3136
    
3137
    2006/01/31
3138
    ----------
3139
    
3140
    Added ``True``, ``False``, and ``enumerate`` if they are not defined.
3141
    (``True`` and ``False`` are needed for *early* versions of Python 2.2,
3142
    ``enumerate`` is needed for all versions ofPython 2.2)
3143
    
3144
    Deprecated ``istrue``, replaced it with ``as_bool``.
3145
    
3146
    Added ``as_int`` and ``as_float``.
3147
    
3148
    utf8 and utf16 BOM handled in an endian agnostic way.
3149
    
3150
    2005/12/14
3151
    ----------
3152
    
3153
    Validation no longer done on the 'DEFAULT' section (only in the root
3154
    level). This allows interpolation in configspecs.
3155
    
3156
    Change in validation syntax implemented in validate 0.2.1
3157
    
3158
    4.1.0
3159
    
3160
    2005/12/10
3161
    ----------
3162
    
3163
    Added ``merge``, a recursive update.
3164
    
3165
    Added ``preserve_errors`` to ``validate`` and the ``flatten_errors``
3166
    example function.
3167
    
3168
    Thanks to Matthew Brett for suggestions and helping me iron out bugs.
3169
    
3170
    Fixed bug where a config file is *all* comment, the comment will now be
3171
    ``initial_comment`` rather than ``final_comment``.
3172
    
3173
    2005/12/02
3174
    ----------
3175
    
3176
    Fixed bug in ``create_empty``. Thanks to Paul Jimenez for the report.

3181
    Fixed bug in ``Section.walk`` when transforming names as well as values.
3182
    
3183
    Added the ``istrue`` method. (Fetches the boolean equivalent of a string
3184
    value).
3185
    
3186
    Fixed ``list_values=False`` - they are now only quoted/unquoted if they
3187
    are multiline values.
3188
    
3189
    List values are written as ``item, item`` rather than ``item,item``.

3205
    a reference to the new section.
3206
    
3207
    2005/09/09
3208

3234
    
3235
    Interpolation is switched off before writing out files.
3236
    
3237
    Fixed bug in handling ``StringIO`` instances. (Thanks to report from
3238
    "Gustavo Niemeyer" <gustavo@niemeyer.net>)
3239
    
3240
    Moved the doctests from the ``__init__`` method to a separate function.
3241

    2005/08/26
3246
    ----------
3247
    
3248
    String values unchanged by validation *aren't* reset. This preserves
3249
    interpolation in string values.

3251
    2005/08/18
3252
    ----------
3253
    
3254
    None from a default is turned to '' if stringify is off - because setting 
3255
    a value to None raises an error.

3282
    By Nicola Larosa
3283
    
3284
    Reworked the ConfigObj._parse, _handle_error and _multiline methods:
3285
    mutated the self._infile, self._index and self._maxline attributes into
3286
    local variables and method parameters
3287
    
3288
    Reshaped the ConfigObj._multiline method to better reflect its semantics
3289
    
3290
    Changed the "default_test" test in ConfigObj.validate to check the fix for
3291
    the bug in validate.Validator.check
