Envyml

Loads environment YAML file into ENV ruby hash. Minimalistic approach. The goal is to keep less than 50 LOC forever.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'envyml'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install envyml

Create file YOUR_PROJECT/config/env.yml, with:

  key: VALUE

Call Envyml.load to insert this file into ENV ruby hash. Don't forget to add config/env.yml to gitignore!

If you are using Rails or just wants to separate your keys, add environment sections to your file:

  development:
    FOO: bar
    KEY: value

  test:
    FOO: bar
    KEY: value

You can customize filename, hardcode environment and much more. Check /lib/envyml.rb to understand your options.

  Envyml.load('lib/my_file.yml', 'test')
  Envyml.load('lib/my_file.yml')

If you use Rails, but wish to force use without environments

  Envyml.load('lib/my_file.yml', false)

Make sure the tests are passing: rake test Feel free to send pull requests
