== Mixlib::Config
Mixlib::Config provides a class-based configuration object, like the one used in Chef. To use in your project:
require 'rubygems'
require 'mixlib/config'
class MyConfig
extend(Mixlib::Config)
configure do |c|
c[:first_value] = 'something'
c[:other_value] = 'something_else'
end
end
Or...
class MyConfig
extend(Mixlib::Config)
first_value 'something'
other_value 'something_else'
end
To check a configuration variable:
MyConfig.first_value # returns 'something'
MyConfig[:first_value] # returns 'something'
To change a configuration variable at runtime:
MyConfig.first_value('foobar') # sets first_value to 'foobar'
MyConfig[:first_value] = 'foobar' # sets first_value to 'foobar'
You should populate your class with the default values for every configuration variable that might be accessed. If you try and access a variable that does not exist, Mixlib::Config will throw an <ArgumentError>.
To load a ruby configuration file (which will evaluate in the context of your configuration class):
MyConfig.from_file('your_config_file.rb')
Enjoy!
