appconfigA gem for centralizing different sources of application configuration data. Supports YAML files, ActiveRecord models and simple hashes as data sources.
¶ ↑
Usage¶ ↑
Adding configuration sources- From YAML file
-
AppCfg::Source.add(‘/path/to/configuration.yml’)
- From namespaced YAML file
-
AppCfg::Source.add(‘/path/to/configuration.yml’, :env => Rails.env)
- From ActiveRecord model
-
AppCfg::Source.add(ConfigurationModel)
- From hash object
-
AppCfg::Source.add({:some_key => ‘value’})
- From .properties file (features missing! Refer to pending tests)
-
AppCfg::Source.add(‘/path/to/configuration.properties’)
¶ ↑
Accessing configuration valuesConfiguration data can be accessed via both object and hash syntax, called on AppCfg module:
AppCfg.some_key # => 'value' AppCfg['some_key'] # => 'value'
Note that these options differ when trying to access inexistent key:
AppCfg.wrong_key # => raises exception AppCfg['wrong_key'] # => nil
¶ ↑
Overwriting and reloadingConfiguration sources are stacked in the order of being added:
AppCfg::Source.add({:some_key => 'some value'}) AppCfg::Source.add({:some_key => 'other value'}) AppCfg.some_key # => 'other value'
Configuration values are cached at the moment of being added. If sources are modified (for example, configuration values stored in database change), data can be refreshed via:
AppCfg::Source.reload_sources!
