any way to composite configuration/.ini files in pylons?

Question

We're running a pylons app with multiple ini files (production, staging, development, etc). When a new setting is added that can be the same in all environments, it would be great to be able to set it once in some sort of master configuration that gets included with all .ini files. Or included via some other way to load centralized config as well as deploy-specific config.

It doesn't look like there's an "import" syntax for pylons ini files. What's the best way to achieve this type of config compositing for pylons, if any?

Answer 1

You can use the ConfigParser module.
