=head1 NAME

Mojolicious::Plugin::Config - Perl-ish configuration plugin

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  # myapp.conf (it's just Perl returning a hash)
  {
    # Just a value
    foo => "bar",

    # Nested data structures are fine too
    baz => ['♥'],

    # You have full access to the application
    music_dir => app->home->child('music')
  };

  # Mojolicious
  my $config = $app->plugin('Config');
  say $config->{foo};

  # Mojolicious::Lite
  my $config = plugin 'Config';
  say $config->{foo};

  # foo.html.ep
  %= config->{foo}

  # The configuration is available application-wide
  my $config = app->config;
  say $config->{foo};

  # Everything can be customized with options
  my $config = plugin Config => {file => '/etc/myapp.stuff'};

=head1 DESCRIPTION

L<Mojolicious::Plugin::Config> is a Perl-ish configuration plugin.

The application object can be accessed via C<$app> or the C<app> function, L<strict>, L<warnings>, L<utf8> and Perl
5.16 L<features|feature> are automatically enabled. A default configuration filename in the application home directory
will be generated from the value of L<Mojolicious/"moniker"> (C<$moniker.conf>). You can extend the normal
configuration file C<$moniker.conf> with C<mode> specific ones like C<$moniker.$mode.conf>, which will be detected
automatically.

These configuration values are currently reserved:

=over 2

=item C<config_override>

If this configuration value has been set in L<Mojolicious/"config"> when this plugin is loaded, it will not do anything
besides loading deployment specific plugins.

=item C<plugins>

  plugins => [{SetUserGroup => {user => 'sri', group => 'staff'}}]

One or more deployment specific plugins that should be loaded right after this plugin has been loaded.

=back

The code of this plugin is a good example for learning to build new plugins, you're welcome to fork it.

See L<Mojolicious::Plugins/"PLUGINS"> for a list of plugins that are available by default.

=head1 OPTIONS

L<Mojolicious::Plugin::Config> supports the following options.

=head2 default

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

=head2 ext

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

=head2 file

  # Mojolicious::Lite
  plugin Config => {file => 'myapp.conf'};
  plugin Config => {file => '/etc/foo.stuff'};

Path to configuration file, absolute or relative to the application home directory, defaults to the value of the
C<MOJO_CONFIG> environment variable or C<$moniker.conf> in the application home directory.
