Quick Start

Basic usage:

>>>
>>> import conficus as ficus
>>>

Configurations can be loaded from a file path string:

>>> config = ficus.load('/Users/mgemmill/config.ini', toml=True)
>>>

Or from path stored in an environment variable:

>>> config = ficus.load('ENV_VAR_CONFIG_PATH')
>>>

>>> # configuration is just a dictionary:
...
>>> print config['app']['debug']
True
>>>
>>> # with ease of access:
...
>>> print config['app.debug']
True
