Hiveconf - a UNIX configuration framework
Overview
Hiveconf is a system for storing configuration data (key-value
pairs). The purpose is similiar to the Windows registry or
GConf. Configuration data can be retrieved and modifyed via a simple
API. The data is stored using different "backends". The default
backend is using a text file format, similiar to smb.conf or Windows
.INI files.
Status
A Python implementation exists.
Documentation
An
overview is available online.
The Hiveconf documentation is included in the software releases, but also available
via ViewCVS.
