The configparser of the Python module

Configparser

Configparser module for operating configuration files

Note: parser translated into "analytic" meaning.

The format of a configuration file is similar to a Windows INI file and can contain one or more sections (section), each of which can have multiple parameters (key = value or key: value).

In order to better understand this article, we first understand the configuration file composition and naming: Configuration file (INI file) consists of sections, keys, values.

-items (section) gets all the key-value pairs of the section
-get (section,option) Gets the value of option in section, returned as a string type
-getint (section,option) Gets the value of option in section and returns the INT type
