=head1 NAME
Perlanet::Role::Config - A role to be used in Perlanet traits that read config.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
package Perlanet::Trait::MyConfig;
use Moose::Role;
with 'Perlanet::Role::Config';
# Class method to return the config
sub get_config_from_somewhere {
my $class = shift;
# get_config() is defined in this role
return $class->get_config(@_)
}
# get_config() calls this to actually read the config.
sub read_config {
my $class = shift;
my %params = @_;
my $cfg = ...;
return $cfg;
}
=head1 DESCRIPTION
A role that is used to build Perlanet traits which read config information
from various sources.
This role does two things:
=over 4
=item *
It exposes a method called C<get_config()> which gets the raw config data
(using your C<read_config()> method).
=item *
It forces your trait to define a method called C<read_config()> which actually
reads the config and returns it as a hash reference.
=back
=head2 METHODS
=head3 get_config
Calls your C<read_config()> method to actually get the config data (as a hash
reference) and then munges that data in various ways to get a useful config
hash.
