40 Mojolicious::Plugin::Config is a Perl-ish configuration plugin.
41
42 The application object can be accessed via $app or the "app" function,
43 strict, warnings, utf8 and Perl 5.16 features are automatically
44 enabled. A default configuration filename in the application home
45 directory will be generated from the value of "moniker" in Mojolicious
46 ("$moniker.conf"). You can extend the normal configuration file
47 "$moniker.conf" with "mode" specific ones like "$moniker.$mode.conf",
48 which will be detected automatically.
49
50 If the configuration value "config_override" has been set in "config"
51 in Mojolicious when this plugin is loaded, it will not do anything.
52
53 The code of this plugin is a good example for learning to build new
54 plugins, you're welcome to fork it.
55
56 See "PLUGINS" in Mojolicious::Plugins for a list of plugins that are
57 available by default.
58
60 Mojolicious::Plugin::Config supports the following options.
61
62 default
63 # Mojolicious::Lite
64 plugin Config => {default => {foo => 'bar'}};
65
66 Default configuration, making configuration files optional.
67
68 ext
69 # Mojolicious::Lite
70 plugin Config => {ext => 'stuff'};
71
72 File extension for generated configuration filenames, defaults to
73 "conf".
74
75 file
76 # Mojolicious::Lite
77 plugin Config => {file => 'myapp.conf'};
78 plugin Config => {file => '/etc/foo.stuff'};
79
80 Path to configuration file, absolute or relative to the application
81 home directory, defaults to the value of the "MOJO_CONFIG" environment
82 variable or "$moniker.conf" in the application home directory.
83
85 Mojolicious::Plugin::Config inherits all methods from
86 Mojolicious::Plugin and implements the following new ones.
87
88 load
89 $plugin->load($file, $conf, $app);
90
91 Loads configuration file and passes the content to "parse".
92
93 sub load {
94 my ($self, $file, $conf, $app) = @_;
95 ...
96 return $self->parse($content, $file, $conf, $app);
97 }
98
99 parse
100 $plugin->parse($content, $file, $conf, $app);
101
102 Parse configuration file.
103
104 sub parse {
105 my ($self, $content, $file, $conf, $app) = @_;
106 ...
107 return $hash;
108 }
109
110 register
111 my $config = $plugin->register(Mojolicious->new);
112 my $config = $plugin->register(Mojolicious->new, {file => '/etc/app.conf'});
113
114 Register plugin in Mojolicious application and merge configuration.
