Splits a property line respecting compound properties.
Ex:    a1=[c1=d1,c2=[e1=[g1=h1],e2=f2]],a2=b2
    -> [("a1", [("c1", "d1"),
                ("c2", [("e1", [("g1", "h1")]),
                        ("e2", "f2")])],
        ("a2", "b2")]

sloppy_unescape(value, escaped, escape=`'\\'`)

Examples with \ as escape character,
E as escaped character and X as a non-escaped character:
    X -> X
    \E -> E
    \ ->         \X -> \X
    X\ -> X        E\ -> E        \\E -> \E
    \\X -> \X

parse_args(args)

source code

Parse flumotion-launch arguments.

Parse flumotion-launch arguments, returning a list of component configs.

A component config is what we will pass to a component when we create it. It is a dict:

'name': component name
'type': component type
'properties': dict of property name => property value
'feed': list of [feeder name,...]
'source': list of [feeder name,...], (optional)
'clock-master': clock master or None
'plugs': dict of socket name => plug config
