Bases: BaseModel

Base class for settings, allowing values to be overridden by environment variables.

This is useful in production for secrets you do not wish to save in code, it plays nicely with docker(-compose), Heroku and any 12 factor app design.

All the below attributes can be set via model_config.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
_case_sensitive bool | None

Whether environment variables names should be read with case-sensitivity. Defaults to None.

None
_nested_model_default_partial_update bool | None

Whether to allow partial updates on nested model default object fields. Defaults to False.

None
_env_prefix str | None

Prefix for all environment variables. Defaults to None.

None
_env_file DotenvType | None

The env file(s) to load settings values from. Defaults to Path(''), which means that the value from model_config['env_file'] should be used. You can also pass None to indicate that environment variables should not be loaded from an env file.

ENV_FILE_SENTINEL
_env_file_encoding str | None

The env file encoding, e.g. 'latin-1'. Defaults to None.

None
_env_ignore_empty bool | None

Ignore environment variables where the value is an empty string. Default to False.

The nested env values delimiter. Defaults to None.

None
_env_parse_none_str str | None

The env string value that should be parsed (e.g. "null", "void", "None", etc.) into None type(None). Defaults to None type(None), which means no parsing should occur.

None
_env_parse_enums bool | None

Parse enum field names to values. Defaults to None., which means no parsing should occur.

None
_cli_prog_name str | None

The CLI program name to display in help text. Defaults to None if _cli_parse_args is None. Otherwse, defaults to sys.argv[0].

None
_cli_parse_args bool | list[str] | tuple[str, ...] | None

The list of CLI arguments to parse. Defaults to None. If set to True, defaults to sys.argv[1:].

None
_cli_settings_source CliSettingsSource[Any] | None

Override the default CLI settings source with a user defined instance. Defaults to None.

None
_cli_parse_none_str str | None

The CLI string value that should be parsed (e.g. "null", "void", "None", etc.) into None type(None). Defaults to _env_parse_none_str value if set. Otherwise, defaults to "null" if _cli_avoid_json is False, and "None" if _cli_avoid_json is True.

None

None
_cli_avoid_json bool | None

Avoid complex JSON objects in CLI help text. Defaults to False.

_cli_exit_on_error bool | None

Determines whether or not the internal parser exits with error info when an error occurs. Defaults to True.

None
_cli_prefix str | None

The root parser command line arguments prefix. Defaults to "".

SettingsConfigDict

Bases: ConfigDict

pyproject_toml_depth instance-attribute

pyproject_toml_depth: int

Number of levels up from the current working directory to attempt to find a pyproject.toml file.

This is only used when a pyproject.toml file is not found in the current working directory.

pyproject_toml_table_header instance-attribute

pyproject_toml_table_header: tuple[str, ...]

Header of the TOML table within a pyproject.toml file to use when filling variables. This is supplied as a tuple[str, ...] instead of a str to accommodate for headers containing a ..

For example, toml_table_header = ("tool", "my.tool", "foo") can be used to fill variable values from a table with header [tool."my.tool".foo].

To use the root table, exclude this config setting or provide an empty tuple.

Bases: EnvSettingsSource, Generic[T]

Source class for loading settings values from CLI.

Note

A CliSettingsSource connects with a root_parser object by using the parser methods to add settings_cls fields as command line arguments. The CliSettingsSource internal parser representation is based upon the argparse parsing library, and therefore, requires the parser methods to support the same attributes as their argparse library counterparts.

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
cli_prog_name str | None

The CLI program name to display in help text. Defaults to None if cli_parse_args is None. Otherwse, defaults to sys.argv[0].

None
cli_parse_args bool | list[str] | tuple[str, ...] | None

The list of CLI arguments to parse. Defaults to None. If set to True, defaults to sys.argv[1:].

None
cli_parse_none_str str | None

The CLI string value that should be parsed (e.g. "null", "void", "None", etc.) into None type(None). Defaults to "null" if cli_avoid_json is False, and "None" if cli_avoid_json is True.

None
cli_hide_none_type bool | None

Hide None values in CLI help text. Defaults to False.

None
cli_avoid_json bool | None

Avoid complex JSON objects in CLI help text. Defaults to False.

None
cli_enforce_required bool | None

Enforce required fields at the CLI. Defaults to False.

None
cli_use_class_docs_for_groups bool | None

Use class docstrings in CLI group help text instead of field descriptions. Defaults to False.

None
cli_exit_on_error bool | None

Determines whether or not the internal parser exits with error info when an error occurs. Defaults to True.

None
cli_prefix str | None

Prefix for command line arguments added under the root parser. Defaults to "".

None
cli_implicit_flags bool | None

Whether bool fields should be implicitly converted into CLI boolean flags. (e.g. --flag, --no-flag). Defaults to False.

None
case_sensitive bool | None

Whether CLI "--arg" names should be read with case-sensitivity. Defaults to True. Note: Case-insensitive matching is only supported on the internal root parser and does not apply to CLI subcommands.

True
root_parser Any

The root parser object.

None
parse_args_method Callable[..., Any] | None

The root parser parse args method. Defaults to argparse.ArgumentParser.parse_args.

parse_args
add_argument_method Callable[..., Any] | None

The root parser add argument method. Defaults to argparse.ArgumentParser.add_argument.

add_argument
add_argument_group_method Callable[..., Any] | None

The root parser add argument group method. Defaults to argparse.ArgumentParser.add_argument_group.

add_argument_group
add_parser_method Callable[..., Any] | None

The root parser add new parser (sub-command) method. Defaults to argparse._SubParsersAction.add_parser.

add_parser
add_subparsers_method Callable[..., Any] | None

The root parser add subparsers (sub-commands) method. Defaults to argparse.ArgumentParser.add_subparsers.

add_subparsers
formatter_class Any

A class for customizing the root parser help text. Defaults to argparse.RawDescriptionHelpFormatter.

The subcommand model if found, otherwise None.

Raises:

Type Description
SystemExit

When no subcommand is found and is_required=True and cli_exit_on_error=True (the default).
