firestring_conf_parse - read and parse a configuration file
SYNOPSIS
#include <firestring.h>
-lfirestring
struct firestring_conf_t *firestring_conf_parse(const char *filename)
DESCRIPTION
firestring_conf_parse() attempts to read a configuration from filename and parse the results into a structure that it then returns.
The support configuration format is fairly flexible:
# Configuration file example
# These are comments
variable_name = value
variable_name2=value
variable_name3="quoted value"
variable_name4="array value 1"
variable_name4="array value 2"
include as a variable name is special; it causes firestring to parse the file referenced by the value, overriding any previous values
(although they are still accessible as arrays).
RETURN VALUE
Returns a pointer to a structure containing the data read from the config file, or NULL if the file cannot be opened.

Mojolicious::Plugin::Config - Perl-ish configuration plugin
SYNOPSIS
# myapp.conf
{
foo => "bar",
music_dir => app->home->rel_dir('music')
};
# Mojolicious
my $config = $self->plugin('Config');
# Mojolicious::Lite
my $config = plugin 'Config';
# Reads "myapp.conf" by default
my $config = app->config;
# Everything can be customized with options
my $config = plugin Config => {file => '/etc/myapp.stuff'};
DESCRIPTION
Mojolicious::Plugin::Config is a Perl-ish configuration plugin.
The application object can be accessed via $app or the "app" function. You can extend the normal configuration file "myapp.conf" with
"mode" specific ones like "myapp.$mode.conf". A default configuration filename will be generated by decamelizing the application class with
"decamelize" in Mojo::Util or from the application filename.
The code of this plugin is a good example for learning to build new plugins, you're welcome to fork it.

"default"
# Mojolicious::Lite
plugin Config => {default => {foo => 'bar'}};

plugin Config => {ext => 'stuff'};
File extension for generated configuration filenames, defaults to "conf".
"file"
# Mojolicious::Lite

plugin Config => {file => '/etc/foo.stuff'};
Full path to configuration file, defaults to the value of the "MOJO_CONFIG" environment variable or "myapp.conf" in the application home
directory.
