Documentation

Install the plugin: 
ruby script/plugin install http://flake-cms.googlecode.com/svn/plugins/application_configuration/

It's basically Dmitro Shteflyuk's idea of using `Ostruct` packaged into a plugin; see http://kpumuk.info/ruby-on-rails/flexible-application-configuration-in-ruby-on-rails/ for details.

Anything declared in YAML file is then available in your application:

1. In RAILS_ROOT/config/application.yml: 

website_name: Rubyists Anonymous



2. In your application (try in `script/console`): 

puts Config.website_name



3. In your views: 

<%= Config.website_name =>



Plugin automatically places an example 'application.yml' into your '/config' folder and provides Rake tasks for installing an uninstalling. Basic set of unit tests is provided.
