Configuration Management Example

This guide provides a professional, step-by-step walkthrough for using the ConfigManager in the agenticaiframework package to set, retrieve, and manage configuration values.
It is intended for developers who need a centralized way to handle application settings and environment-specific parameters.

---

Prerequisites & Configuration

• Installation: Ensure agenticaiframework is installed and accessible in your Python environment.
• No additional configuration is required for this example.
• Python Version: Compatible with Python 3.8+.

---

Code

from agenticaiframework.configurations import ConfigManager

if __name__ == "__main__":
    config = ConfigManager()

    # Set a configuration value
    config.set("api_key", "123456")

    # Retrieve the configuration value
    print("API Key:", config.get("api_key"))

---

Step-by-Step Execution

1. Import the Class
   Import ConfigManager from agenticaiframework.configurations.

2. Instantiate the Manager
   Create an instance of ConfigManager to handle configuration storage and retrieval.

3. Set a Configuration Value
   Use set(key, value) to store a configuration parameter.

4. Retrieve a Configuration Value
   Use get(key) to fetch the stored value.

5. Output the Result
   Print or log the retrieved configuration value.

Best Practice: Store sensitive configuration values (e.g., API keys) in environment variables or secure vaults, and load them into ConfigManager at runtime.

---

Expected Input

No user input is required; the script uses hardcoded values for demonstration purposes. In production, configuration values could be loaded from environment variables, configuration files, or remote configuration services.

---

Expected Output

API Key: 123456

---

How to Run

Run the example from the project root:

python examples/configurations_example.py

If installed as a package, you can also run it from anywhere:

python -m examples.configurations_example

Tip: Use ConfigManager as a single source of truth for configuration values to avoid inconsistencies across your application.
