Read all the contents in ini file into dictionary with Python

Question

Normally, I code as follows for getting a particular item in a variable as follows

try:
    config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
    config.read(self.iniPath         


        

Answer 1

suppose file: config.properties contains the following:

• k =v
• k2= v2
• k3= v3

python code:

def read_config_file(file_path):
        with open(file=file_path, mode='r') as fs:
            return {k.strip(): v.strip() for i in [l for l in fs.readlines() if l.strip() != ''] for k, v in [i.split('=')]}


print('file as dic: ', read_config_file('config.properties'))

Answer 2

from https://wiki.python.org/moin/ConfigParserExamples

def ConfigSectionMap(section):
dict1 = {}
options = Config.options(section)
for option in options:
    try:
        dict1[option] = Config.get(section, option)
        if dict1[option] == -1:
            DebugPrint("skip: %s" % option)
    except:
        print("exception on %s!" % option)
        dict1[option] = None
return dict1
