Python Config Parser can't find section?

问题

I'm trying to use ConfigParser to read a .cfg file for my pygame game. I can't get it to function for some reason. The code looks like this:

import ConfigParser
def main():
    config = ConfigParser.ConfigParser()
    config.read('options.cfg')
    print config.sections()
    Screen_width = config.getint('graphics','width')
    Screen_height = config.getint('graphics','height')

The main method in this file is called in the launcher for the game. I've tested that out and that works perfectly. When I run this code, I get this error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Scripts\Launcher.py", line 71, in <module>
    Game.main()
  File "C:\Users\astro_000\Desktop\Mini-Golf\Scripts\Game.py", line 8, in main
    Screen_width = config.getint('graphics','width')
  File "c:\python27\lib\ConfigParser.py", line 359, in getint
    return self._get(section, int, option)
  File "c:\python27\lib\ConfigParser.py", line 356, in _get
    return conv(self.get(section, option))
  File "c:\python27\lib\ConfigParser.py", line 607, in get
    raise NoSectionError(section)
ConfigParser.NoSectionError: No section: 'graphics'

The thing is, there is a section 'graphics'.

The file I'm trying to read from looks like this:

[graphics]
height = 600
width = 800

I have verified that it is, in fact called options.cfg. config.sections() returns only this: "[]"

I've had this work before using this same code, but it wont work now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

回答1:

I always use the SafeConfigParser:

from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser

def main():
    parser = SafeConfigParser()
    parser.read('options.cfg')
    print(parser.sections())
    screen_width = parser.getint('graphics','width')
    screen_height = parser.getint('graphics','height')

Also make sure there is a file called options.cfg and specify the full path if needed, as I already commented. Parser will fail silently if there is no file found.

Your config file probably is not found. The parser will just produce an empty set in that case. You should wrap your code with a check for the file:

from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser
import os

def main():
    filename = "options.cfg"
    if os.path.isfile(filename):
        parser = SafeConfigParser()
        parser.read(filename)
        print(parser.sections())
        screen_width = parser.getint('graphics','width')
        screen_height = parser.getint('graphics','height')
    else:
        print("Config file not found")

if __name__=="__main__":
    main()
