chorizo

Parse and set environment variables on hosting providers Cloud66 and Heroku, in the spirit of 12factor apps. Essentially, this is a minimal version of laserlemon/figaro which just functions as an environment variable setter. This has the added feature of supporting both target hosts, so you get to specify config overrides and/or additions for different environments as well as different deploy targets. Both should be represented as first-level key-values with the key being the environment name or the deployment target's name. Deployment targets can have nested environments, too.

The order of precedence for the final output, with the top being most important:

• Target and Environment specific
• Target specific
• Environment specific
• Base config

For Cloud66, this will output your application's config for the specified environment and with any deployment specific values you've placed in the config. To use it, redirect STDOUT to a file and then upload to Cloud66. Any warnings will go to STDERR.

For Heroku, the command heroku config:set is called, which will actually update the environment variables on your app. As such, you need to specify a Heroku app name when using this.

Since 0.1.3, chorizo supports decrypting values encoded with hiera-eyaml, provided you have the necessary keys. It does this by searching for the beginning of an encrypted value in each value string.

Since 0.1.7, chorizo supports a config file that should be placed in config/chorizo.yml. An example of this file can be found here.
