Config Tree
===========

[](#config-tree)

Description
-----------

[](#description)

A library for reading config files of various formats, and representing them as config tree objects.

Example of usage
----------------

[](#example-of-usage)

`config.json` file:

```
{
    "parameters": {
        "mysql": {
            "user": "dbuser"
        }
    }
}
```

```
$configBuilder = new \ConfigTree\Builder\ConfigTreeBuilder();
$configBuilder->addSettingsFromPath('/path/config.json');
$config = $configBuilder->buildConfigTreeAndReset();

$mysqlUsername = $config->getSettingFromPath('parameters/mysql/user');
// $mysqlUsername === "dbuser"
```

Or, do stuff like this:

```
$dbConfig = $config->getSubtreeFromPath('parameters/mysql');
```
