app_skellington
===============
Application framework for Python, features include:
 * Pain-free multi-level command menu: Expose public class methods as commands available to user.
 * Simple to define services and automatic dependency injection based on name (with custom invocation as an option). *WIP
 * INI-style config and and validation (provided through ConfigObj).
 * Colored logging (provided through colorlog)
 * Works on Linux, Windows, and Mac.

Principles:
 * Lend to creating beautiful, easy to read and understand code in the application.
 * Minimize coupling of applications to this framework.
 * Compatable with Linux, Windows, and Mac. Try to be compatible as possible otherwise.
 * Try to be compatible with alternate Python runtimes such as PyPy and older python environments. *WIP

Application Configuration
-------------------------
Site configurations are supported through configobj. There is a config.spec
in the src directory which is a validation file; it contains the accepted
parameter names, types, and limits for configurable options in the
application which is built on app_skellington. The format is multi-level .ini syntax.

See the configobj documentation for more information.

Site configuration files (config.ini) are created if they don't exit. The
file always contains the full specification of parameters; i.e. even default
parameters are added into the config file.

Linux:
  
/home/\<user\>/.config/\<app_name\>/config.ini
  
/home/\<user\>/.cache/\<app_name\>/log/\<app_name\>.log

Windows:
  
C:\Users\\\<user>\\\<app_name\>\\Local\\\<app_name\>\\config.ini
  
C:\Users\\\<user>\\\<app_name\>\\Local\\\<app_name\>\\Logs\\\<app_name\>.log

Application configuration can be overridden ad-hoc through the --config <filename>
argument.

Debug - Turn on Logging
---------------------------
Set 'APPSKELLINGTON_ENABLE_LOGGING' environment variable to any value which turns
on AppSkellington-level logging. For example,

    APP_SKELLINGTON_DEBUG=1 <executable>

or

    export APP_SKELLINGTON_DEBUG=1
    <executable>

Tests
-----
Tests are a WIP. Recommendation is to run 'pytest' in the 'tests' directory.
