class easybuild.framework.easyconfig.format.pyheaderconfigobj.EasyConfigFormatConfigObj(*args, **kwargs)

Bases: easybuild.framework.easyconfig.format.format.EasyConfigFormat

Extended EasyConfig format, with support for a header and sections that are actually parsed (as opposed to exec’ed). It’s very limited for now, but is already huge improvement.

3 parts in easyconfig file: - header (^# style) - pyheader (including docstring)

• contents is exec’ed, docstring and remainder are extracted

• begin of regular section until EOF

• feed to ConfigObj
