This module provides an implementation of Distilery’s configuration provider behavior, so that TOML files can be used for configuration in releases.

Usage

Add the following to your rel/config.exs

release :myapp do
  # ...snip...
  set config_providers: [
    {Toml.Provider, [path: "${XDG_CONFIG_DIR}/myapp.toml", transforms: [...]]}
  ]
end

This will result in Toml.Provider being invoked during boot, at which point it will evaluate the given path and read the TOML file it finds. If one is not found, or is not accessible, the provider will raise an error, and the boot sequence will terminate unsuccessfully. If it succeeds, it persists settings in the file to the application environment (i.e. you access it via Application.get_env/2).

The config provider expects a certain format to the TOML file, namely that keys at the root of the document are tables which correspond to applications which need to be configured. If it encounters keys at the root of the document which are not tables, they are ignored.

Options

The same options that Toml.parse/2 accepts are able to be provided to Toml.Provider, but there are two main differences:

• :path (required) - sets the path to the TOML file to load config from
• :keys - defaults to :atoms, but can be set to :atoms! if desired, all other key types are ignored, as it results in an invalid config structure
