[Python] Setting "self.client.headers" in a locust test by reading values from a config.txt...

I'm using configparser to read below values in a sample text file named config.txt:

cookie='StaticWebAppsAuthCookie=GKeVpelA4wK+udvu7de737v7v8cv8v'
Accept='*/*'
Accept-Encoding=' gzip, deflate, br'
Connection= 'keep-alive'`


I'm reading the config.txt through below python code:

config = configparser.ConfigParser()
config.read('config.txt')
self.client.headers = {'cookie': config.get('DEFAULT','cookie'),
'Accept':config.get('DEFAULT','Accept'),
'Accept-Encoding':config.get('DEFAULT','Accept-Encoding'),
'Connection':config.get('DEFAULT','Connection')}'```

I'm getting below error when executed:




configparser.MissingSectionHeaderError: File contains no section headers.





Kindly help in this, or suggest an alternate to achieve setting client-headers by reading values over a given .txt file
