NAME

       Config::ZOMG - Yet Another Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader-style layer over Config::Any

VERSION

       version 1.000000

DESCRIPTION

       "Config::ZOMG" is a fork of Config::JFDI.  It removes a couple of unusual features and
       passes the same tests three times faster than Config::JFDI.

       "Config::ZOMG" is an implementation of Catalyst::Plugin::ConfigLoader that exists outside
       of Catalyst.

       "Config::ZOMG" will scan a directory for files matching a certain name. If such a file is
       found which also matches an extension that Config::Any can read, then the configuration
       from that file will be loaded.

       "Config::ZOMG" will also look for special files that end with a "_local" suffix. Files
       with this special suffix will take precedence over any other existing configuration file,
       if any. The precedence takes place by merging the local configuration with the "standard"
       configuration via Hash::Merge::Simple.

       Finally you can override/modify the path search from outside your application, by setting
       the "${NAME}_CONFIG" variable outside your application (where $NAME is the uppercase
       version of what you passed to Config::ZOMG->new).

SYNPOSIS

        use Config::ZOMG;

        my $config = Config::ZOMG->new(
          name => 'my_application',
          path => 'path/to/my/application',
        );
        my $config_hash = $config->load;

       This will look for something like (depending on what Config::Any will find):

        path/to/my/application/my_application_local.{yml,yaml,cnf,conf,jsn,json,...}

       and

        path/to/my/application/my_application.{yml,yaml,cnf,conf,jsn,json,...}

       ... and load the found configuration information appropiately, with "_local" taking
       precedence.

       You can also specify a file directly:

        my $config = Config::ZOMG->new(file => '/path/to/my/application/my_application.cnf');

       To later reload your configuration:

        $config->reload;

METHODS

   new
        $config = Config::ZOMG->new(...)

       Returns a new "Config::ZOMG" object

       You can configure the $config object by passing the following to new:

       name
         The name specifying the prefix of the configuration file to look for and the ENV
         variable to read. This can be a package name. In any case, :: will be substituted with _
         in "name" and the result will be lowercased.  To prevent modification of "name", pass it
         in as a scalar reference.

       "path"
         The directory to search in

       "file"
         Directly read the configuration from this file. "Config::Any" must recognize the
         extension. Setting this will override "path"

       "no_local"
         Disable lookup of a local configuration. The "local_suffix" option will be ignored. Off
         by default

       "local_suffix"
         The suffix to match when looking for a local configuration. "local" by default

       "no_env"
         Set this to ignore ENV. "env_lookup" will be ignored. Off by default

       "env_lookup"
         Additional ENV to check if $ENV{<NAME>...} is not found

       "driver"
         A hash consisting of "Config::" driver information. This is passed directly through to
         "Config::Any"

       "default"
         A hash filled with default keys/values

   open
        $config_hash = Config::ZOMG->open( ... )

       As an alternative way to load a config "open" will pass given arguments to "new" then
       attempt to do "load"

       Unlike "load" if no configuration files are found "open" will return "undef" (or the empty
       list)

       This is so you can do something like:

        my $config_hash = Config::ZOMG->open( '/path/to/application.cnf' )
          or die "Couldn't find config file!"

       In scalar context "open" will return the config hash, not the config object. If you want
       the config object call "open" in list context:

           my ($config_hash, $config) = Config::ZOMG->open( ... )

       You can pass any arguments to "open" that you would to "new"

   load
        $config->load

       Load a config as specified by "new" and "ENV" and return a hash

       This will only load the configuration once, so it's safe to call multiple times without
       incurring any loading-time penalty

   found
        $config->found

       Returns a list of files found

       If the list is empty then no files were loaded/read

   find
         $config->find

       Returns a list of files that configuration will be loaded from. Use this method to check
       whether configuration files have changed, without actually reloading.

   clone
        $config->clone

       Return a clone of the configuration hash using Clone

       This will load the configuration first, if it hasn't already

   reload
        $config->reload

       Reload the configuration, examining ENV and scanning the path anew

       Returns a hash of the configuration
