Store your configuration in DynamoDB using DynamoDB Config Store.
Using this Python class you'll be able to easily manage application configuration directly in DynamoDB. It works almost like any configuration file, except that an option can have multiple values. For example your configuration could look like this:
------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+---------------- _store | _option | host | port | secret-key ------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+---------------- prod | db | db-cluster.com | 27017 | prod | external-port | | 80 | prod | secret-key | | | abcd1234 test | db | localhost | 27017 | test | external-port | | 4000 | prod | secret-key | | | test1234 ------------+----------------+----------------+----------------+----------------
You can then retrieve configuration like this:
store = DynamoDBConfigStore( connection, # dynamodb2 connection from boto 'config', # DynamoDB table name 'prod') # Store name # Get the 'db' option and all it's values store.config.get('db') # Returns {'host': 'db-cluster.com', 'port', Decimal(27017)}
In our lingo a Store is roughly equivivalent to a configuration file. And an Option is an key in the Store which holds zero or more Keys.
