Perl port of the Ruby Konfa configuration interface.

Konfa aims to solve some of the common mishaps related to application configration such as:

• Bugs attributed to misspelt configuration variable names
• Forgotten configuration options that nobody knows what they do or where they are used
• Seamlessly reading configuration values from either the environment or YAML (or any other source for that matter)

package AppConfig;
use parent 'Konfa';

sub env_variable_prefix { 'APP_' }
sub allowed_variables {
  {
    'api_key' => undef,
    'feature_enabled' => 'yes',
  }
}

# -- Later on --

AppConfig->init_with_env;

# -- Even later --

use AppConfig vars => 'config';

if(config->is_feature_enabled) {
   # do what is needed
}

See the module documentation for more examples and complete API reference.

Because Konfa is not (yet) on CPAN, it has to be manually installed (assuming Module::Build is available):

  git clone [email protected]:avidity/konfa-perl
  cd konfa-perl
  perl Build.pl
  ./Build installdeps
  ./Build test
  ./Build install
