This may not be what you're asking for, but
https://github.com/buildbot/buildbot/blob/master/master/contrib/SimpleConfig.py
is roughly how I build my configurations;
rather than directly edit a master.cfg, I wrote SimpleConfig.py to
construct them from declarative info in master.json.

The SimpleConfig.py in contrib doesn't do much, but it might be
interesting as a starting point.
