=head1 NAME
CGI::Application::Plugin::ConfigAuto - Easy config file management for CGI::Application
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use CGI::Application::Plugin::ConfigAuto (qw/cfg/);
In your instance script:
my $app = WebApp->new(PARAMS => { cfg_file => 'config.pl' });
$app->run();
In your application module:
sub my_run_mode {
my $self = shift;
# Access a config hash key directly
$self->cfg('field');
# Return config as hash
%CFG = $self->cfg;
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
CGI::Application::Plugin::ConfigAuto adds easy access to config file variables
to your L<CGI::Application|CGI::Application> modules. Lazy loading is used to
prevent the config file from being parsed if no configuration variables are
accessed during the request. In other words, the config file is not parsed
until it is actually needed. The L<Config::Auto|Config::Auto> package provides
the framework for this plugin.
=head1 RATIONALE
C<CGI::Application> promotes re-usable applications by moving a maximal amount
of code into modules. For an application to be fully re-usable without code changes,
it is also necessary to store configuration variables in a separate file.
This plugin supports multiple config files for a single application, allowing
config files to override each other in a particular order. This covers even
complex cases, where you have a global config file, and second local config
file which overrides a few variables.
It is recommended that you to declare your config file locations in the
instance scripts, where it will have minimum impact on your application. This
technique is ideal when you intend to reuse your module to support multiple
configuration files. If you have an application with multiple instance scripts
which share a single config file, you may prefer to call the plugin from the
setup() method.
=head1 DECLARING CONFIG FILE LOCATIONS
# In your instance script
# value can also be an arrayref of config files
my $app = WebApp->new(PARAMS => { cfg_file => 'config.pl' })
# OR ...
# Pass in an array of config files, and they will be processed in order.
$app->cfg_file('../../config/config.pl');
Your config files should be referenced using the syntax example above. Note
that the key C<config_files> can be used as alternative to cfg_file.
The format is detected automatically using L<Config::Auto|Config::Auto>. It it
known to support the following formats: colon separated, space separated,
equals separated, XML, Perl code, and Windows INI. See that modules
documentation for complete details.
=head1 METHODS
=head2 cfg()
# Access a config hash key directly
$self->cfg('field');
# Return config as hash
my %CFG = $self->cfg;
# return as hashref
my $cfg_href = $self->cfg;
A method to access project configuration variables. The config
file is parsed on the first call with a perl hash representation stored in memory.
Subsequent calls will use this version, rather than re-reading the file.
In list context, it returns the configuration data as a hash.
In scalar context, it returns the configuration data as a hashref.
=head2 config()
L<CGI::Application::Standard::Config/config()> is provided as an alias to cfg() for compliance with
L<CGI::Application::Standard::Config>. It always exported by default per the
standard.
=head2 std_config()
L<CGI::Application::Standard::Config/std_config()> is implemented to comply with L<CGI::Application::Standard::Config>. It's
for developers. Users can ignore it.

=head2 cfg_file()
# Usual

$self->cfg_file('my_config_file.pl',{ format => 'perl' } );
Supply an array of config files, and they will be processed in order. If a
hash reference if found it, will be used to supply the format for the previous
file in the array.

=head1 FILE FORMAT HINTS
=head2 Perl
Here's a simple example of my favorite config file format: Perl.
Having the "shebang" line at the top helps C<Config::Auto> to identify
it as a Perl file. Also, be sure that your last statement returns a
hash reference.
#!/usr/bin/perl
my %CFG = ();
# directory path name
$CFG{DIR} = '/home/mark/www';
# website URL
$CFG{URL} = 'http://mark.stosberg.com/';
\%CFG;
