# environment_configurable

Description

===========

A library that makes environment dependent configuration easy in rails.

Rationale

========

Environment dependent configuration is a common problem in rails, and we noticed

a common pattern:

  * We tend to extract configuration variables to a yaml file

  * We often wrap the yaml configuration in a configuration helper

  

Environment Configurable accomplishes both of these task succinctly.

Install

====

  * gem install environment_configurable

  * Add config.gem "environment_configurable" to your environment.rb file

  

Dependencies

============

* Rails 2.3.0 >=

Example

=======

    class S3Helper

      include EnvironmentConfigurable

      configure_with "config/s3.yml"

      

      def self.connect!

         AWS::S3::Base.establish_connection!(

            :access_key_id     => config.access_key_id,

            :secret_access_key => config.secret_access_key

          )

      end

    end

    

  s3.yml

  

    production: &DEFAULTS

      access_key_id: ACCESS_KEY_ID

      secret_access_key: SECRET_ACCESS_KEY

      bucket: the-prod-bucket

    staging:

      <<: *DEFAULTS

      bucket: the-staging-bucket

    development:

      <<: *DEFAULTS

      bucket: the-development-bucket

    test:

      <<: *DEFAULTS

      bucket: the-test-bucket
