The application object can be accessed via C<$app> or the C function. A default configuration filename in the application home directory will be generated from the value of L (C<$moniker.json>). You can extend the normal configuration file C<$moniker.json> with C specific ones like C<$moniker.$mode.json>, which will be detected automatically. If the configuration value C has been set in L when this plugin is loaded, it will not do anything. The code of this plugin is a good example for learning to build new plugins, you're welcome to fork it. See L for a list of plugins that are available by default. =head1 OPTIONS L inherits all options from L and supports the following new ones. =head2 template # Mojolicious::Lite plugin JSONConfig => {template => {line_start => '.'}}; Attribute values passed to L object used to preprocess configuration files. =head1 METHODS L inherits all methods from L and implements the following new ones. =head2 parse $plugin->parse($content, $file, $conf, $app); Process content with L and parse it with L. sub parse { my ($self, $content, $file, $conf, $app) = @_; ... $content = $self->render($content, $file, $conf, $app); ... return $hash; } =head2 register my $config = $plugin->register(Mojolicious->new); my $config = $plugin->register(Mojolicious->new, {file => '/etc/foo.conf'}); Register plugin in L application and merge configuration. =head2 render $plugin->render($content, $file, $conf, $app); Process configuration file with L. sub render { my ($self, $content, $file, $conf, $app) = @_; ... return $content; } =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L. =cut
