Usage
-----

.. code-block:: python
  
  import kwconfig
  
  # Specify a file path for creating kwconfig object
  config = kwconfig.manage('config.json', defaults={'key0': 'value0'})
  
  # Update the config file with a key and value dict
  config.update({'key1': 'value1', 'key2': 'value2'})
  
  # Add a keyword dict to existing config file
  # If a key exists, it will be updated
  # If a key does not exist, it will be added
  other_config = {'key3': 'value3'}
  other_config = config.add(other_config)
  
  # Write new values using keyword dict
  config.overwrite({
    'new_key1': 'new_value1',
    'new_key2': 'new_value2'
  })
  
  # Obtain a dict of the config file contents
  kw = config.read()
  
  # Remove the key named "key1"
  config.remove('key1')
  
  # Reset to defaults
  config.reset()
  
  # Parsing a keyword list into dict ----
  
  # Create a sample list of keyword arguments
  argv = ['--key1=value1', '--key2=value2']
  
  # Parse into a keyword dict
  kwdict = kwconfig.parse(argv)
  
  # View the values of key1 and key2
  print('key1: ' + kwdict['key1'])
  print('key2: ' + kwdict['key2'])
