Do you think there is a need for a configuration file validator? Sometimes I have nasty issues in manual created configuration files (e.g. a parameter in a wrong section or a mistyped name of a section or parameter).
The services themself to not validate the configuration files for logical issues. They check if the syntax is valid. They do not check if the parameter or section names makes sense (e.g. from time to time parameters change the sections or are deprecated in a new release) or if the used values for a parameter are correct. I started implementing a quick and dircty proof of concept script (I called it validus) to validate configuration files based on oslo.config and stevedore. If there exists a need I will cleanup, complete, and publish my proof of concept script on Stackforge. Just want to clarify first whether a need exists or not.
