Augeas (software)
Augeas is a free software configuration-management library, written in the C programming language. It is licensed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License.
Augeas uses programs called lenses to map a filesystem to an XML tree which can then be parsed using an XPath syntax, using a bidirectional transformation. Writing such lenses extends the amount of files Augeas can parse.Bindings
Augeas has bindings for Python, Ruby, OCaml, Perl, Haskell, Java, PHP, and Tcl.
