21 with 'MouseX::SimpleConfig';
22
23 has 'foo' => (is => 'ro', isa => 'Str', required => 1);

63 This role loads simple configfiles to set object attributes. It is
64 based on the abstract role MouseX::ConfigFromFile, and uses Config::Any
65 to load your configfile. Config::Any will in turn support any of a
66 variety of different config formats, detected by the file extension.
67 See Config::Any for more details about supported formats.
68
69 Like all MouseX::ConfigFromFile -derived configfile loaders, this
70 module is automatically supported by the MouseX::Getopt role as well,
71 which allows specifying "-configfile" on the commandline.
72
74 configfile
75 Provided by the base role MouseX::ConfigFromFile. You can provide a
76 default configfile pathname like so:
77
78 has '+configfile' => ( default => '/etc/myapp.yaml' );
79
80 You can pass an array of filenames if you want, but as usual the array
81 has to be wrapped in a sub ref.
82
83 has '+configfile' => ( default => sub { [ '/etc/myapp.yaml', '/etc/myapp_local.yml' ] } );
84
85 Config files are trivially merged at the top level, with the right-hand
86 files taking precedence.
87
89 new_with_config
90 Class method provided by the base role MouseX::ConfigFromFile. Acts
91 just like regular "new()", but also accepts an argument "configfile" to
92 specify the configfile from which to load other attributes. Explicit
93 arguments to "new_with_config" will override anything loaded from the
94 configfile.
95
96 get_config_from_file
97 Class method called internally by either "new_with_config" or
98 MouseX::Getopt's "new_with_options". Invokes Config::Any to parse
99 "configfile".
