This gem will help you if you need to store and read user configurations on environments, global or local files.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'user-configurations'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install user-configurations

Usage

Precedence

ENV > local > global

Writing

configs = UserConfigurations::Configuration.new('project')
configs.store(user_name: 'stupied4ever')

Will store on a local file placed on ~/.project a YAML file with user_name.

Reading

configs = UserConfigurations::Configuration.new('project')
configs['user_name'] # 'stupied4ever'

If you had a global file (/etc/project) with the user_name configurations, or an ENV var it would be readable too, just pay attention on precendences.
