We've used a lot of boolean environment variables in a recent project
I've been working on, this led us to create a wrapper to os.getenv that
essentially converts the result to a boolean using
distutils.util.strtobool if an optional kwarg to our wrapper is set to True.
Would it be far-fetched to have os.getenv incorporate this
functionality? We already have the building blocks (strtobool and
getenv), and the signature change would be minimal and backwards-compatible:
def getenv(key, default=None, to_bool=False):
...
Why not use just to_bool(getenv(key))?
The implementation would be trivial too.
No. There would be hundreds different trivial implementations.
