I have a Python app that contains an object structure that the user can manipulate. What I want to do is allow the user to create a file declaring how the object structure should be created.

For example, I would like the user to be able to create the following file:

foo.bar.baz = true
x.y.z = 12

and for my app to then create that object tree automatically. What's the best way to do something like this?
