Constructor Details

#initialize(*args) ⇒ Config

args is a last of config file paths to load into this instance. If the last argument is a hash, it’s assumed to be a list of options. The available options are:

<li>:verbose => true or false</li>

#postprocess ⇒ Object

This method is a stub. It gets called by refresh after each config file has be loaded. You can use it to run file specific processing on the configuration before it’s used elsewhere.

# File 'lib/caesars/config.rb', line 65

def postprocess
end

#refresh ⇒ Object

Clear all current configuration (sets all config instance variables to nil) and reload all config files in @paths. After each path is loaded, Caesars::Config.postprocess is called. If a ForceRefresh exception is raise, refresh is run again from the start. This is useful in the case where one DSL can affect the parsing of another. Note that refresh only clears the instance variables, the class vars for each of the DSLs are not affected so all calls to forced_array, forced_hash, chill and forced_ignore are unaffected.

Rudy has an example of forced refreshing in action. See the files (github.com/solutious/rudy):

  • lib/rudy/config.rb

  • lib/rudy/config/objects.rb.
