s1ard.config.init(target, source=None, overwrite=False, **kwargs)

Initialize a configuration file.

Create a file in the current working directory. work_dir and a scene search option (in this case SQLite via db_file) must be defined, other configuration is read from the default configuration file.

>>> from s1ard.config import init
>>> init(target='config.ini', work_dir='.', db_file='scenes.db')

s1ard.config.read_config_file(config_file=None)

Reads a configuration file and returns a ConfigParser object

Parameters:

Return type:

ConfigParser

Returns:

the configuration object

• target (str) – the name of the output file

• overwrite (bool) – overwrite an existing file if it exists?
