Configuration

There are many configuration keys provided by many sources, the same key in different source are overridden.
Source priorities:

- python module: default ``flaskel.config``
- mapping (dict): via cli from yaml or json file
- environment variables: handled via ``python-decouple``, so can be stored in .env or settings.ini file

Configuration via env:

- ``DEBUG``: *(default: bool = True)*
- ``TESTING``: *(default: bool = DEBUG)*
- ``APP_NAME``: *(default = flaskel)*
- ``APP_HOST``: *(default = 127.0.0.1)*
