Config
======

[](#config)

This library tries it's best to be lightweight and dependency free. The objective is to provide a standard configuration object, a pluggable configuration source objects and a standard factory object to configure the configuration.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

The main way to instanciate a configuration object is via the ConfigFactory::fromArray static function. This function takes a simple array as a definition of the reader to use in order to generate a configuration object.

The array must respect the structure as shown below.

```
[
    'reader' => [
        [
            'class' => 'ClassName'
            'config' => 'argument passed to the constructor of ClassName'
        ],
        [...]
    ]
]

```

You can then pass this array to ConfigFactory::fromArray function.

```
$conf = \Zwijn\Config\ConfigFactory::fromArray($array);

```
