"""
invirt-getconf loads an invirt configuration file (either the original YAML
source or the faster-to-load JSON cache) and prints the configuration option
with the given name (key).  Keys are dot-separated paths into the YAML
configuration tree.  List indexes (0-based) are also treated as path
components.

(Due to this path language, certain restrictions are placed on the keys used in
the YAML configuration; e.g., they cannot contain dots.)

Examples:

  invirt-getconf db.uri
  invirt-getconf authn.0.type
