NAME

       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';

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.

OPTIONS

       Mojolicious::Plugin::Config supports the following options.

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

   "ext"
	 # Mojolicious::Lite
	 plugin Config => {ext => 'stuff'};

   "file"
	 # Mojolicious::Lite
	 plugin Config => {file => 'myapp.conf'};
	 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.
