rationale:
I've developed several complex applications. Some parts are
configurable via configuration file. The parameters can also be
defined by a script. In the application core I set the default
configuration values. I need to merge this three sources of
configuration to get the final configuration set before used in
other parts of the application. I've used this mechanism internall.
Now, it's just the time to release it to the public in hope that it
can be useful to others.
I've changed the name from something internal to Config::Merge, and
I think this is an appopriate name. There's already a namesapce
"Config::" for configuration parser. So Merge will fit just well. I
believe this is the first module in CPAN for this purpose.
I'm internally testing this module before releasing the first
version (0.0.1, alpha stage). In the meantime, this is an excerpt
from ABSTRACT:
Config::Merge merges configuration from at most three sources. Your
application may allow users to define configuration in a file, but
you also have set predefined (default) configuration. At the end you
want single configuration by merging them with a certain precedence.
This module will do just that.
Additionally, Config::Merge provides internal parser for convenient
and historical reason, but allows users to provide external parser
via CODE reference to suit their need.
