描述
SQLACodegen is getting too many command line options to support comfortably. A configuration file would allow us to support a wide variety of options while keeping the required CLI incantations to a minimum. In particular, it would probably solve the problem presented in the oldest open issue, #25.
The biggest question is, what format to use? I think YAML and TOML are the only reasonable choices. YAML is in widespread use and offers a great end user experience. TOML, on the other hand, has a parser in standard library (3.11), but the standard is not widely used and even its author no longer recommends it. YAML has parsing pitfalls where special values can be interpreted as types other than the string the user probably expected. TOML
TOML pros:
- has a parser in standard library (3.11)
- we could use `pyproject.toml` to store the configuration
TOML cons:
- relatively new format, not widely used (tooling support isn't quite there yet)
- more verbose for complex structures than YAML
- even its author no longer recommends it
YAML pros:
- in widespread use
- offers a great end user experience
YAML cons:
- always requires an extra dependency
- has parsing pitfalls where special values can be interpreted as types other than the string the user probably expected
