Documentation & Examples

Our documentation site is not yet live, sorry.

Basically, it lets you read a config file to produce a Clojure map. The config files themselves can contain one or more forms, each of which can be either a map or a list. Maps are simply merged. Lists correspond to invocations of extension points, which in turn produces a map, which is merged along with everything else.

A sample config file could look like this (see "/example-resources" in our project)

(include "config/config.edn")
(include "config/db.TEST.edn")

{:env :local
 :another-key {:map true
               :map-2 42}
 }

As you see, you can include other files.

Read the config using this in your code:

(gorillalabs.config/init)

to read "config.edn" from the classpath; or

(gorillalabs.config/init "ENV")

to read "[email protected]" from the classpath.

If you do not want to store your config on the classpath, just include a reference to a specific file in your config.edn file like this

(include "file:///external/config/some-config.edn")

Continuous Integration Status

Continuous Integration status

Development

config uses Leiningen 2. Make sure you have it installed and then run tests against supported Clojure versions using

lein all test

Then create a branch and make your changes on it. Once you are done with your changes and all tests pass, submit a pull request on GitHub.
