Plugin functionality

'application_config' eases project configuring by introducing yaml config file in RAILS_ROOT/config folder and provides handful methods accessing config values based on current rails environment. So, you can have separate sets of configuration properties for each rails environment you use.

Installation

> ruby ./script/plugin install http://application-config.googlecode.com/svn/tags/application-config

Default configuration file

During installation, plugin will create default config in RAILS_ROOT/config/application_config.yml, it looks like the following:

  development: &defaults
    items_per_page: 25
    secure_with_basic_auth: false
    base_url: development.com
  test:
    <<: *defaults
    base_url: test.com
  production:
    <<: *defaults
    base_url: production.com

Usage

You then can get those values using 'property' method:

  class FooController < ApplicationController
    def index
      @base_url = property(:base_url)
    end
  end

This will set @items_per_page with value 'development.com' if you run that in development environment.
