I second the sysctl syntax it’s very easy to grep through configuration files in this format. The “key” prefix contains the context for the information which is useful.
i.e. “riak_kv.anti_entropy_leveldb_opts.write_buffer_size” Riak, a distributed KV dynamo store has recently been moving to the sysctl format from the traditional Erlang `app.config` “format".

A text editor should be more than capable enough to stop you from slipping in tabs. If there's a separate untested configuration for production then you have a problem. This isn't just a single offhand incident. It's something I've seen a pattern of happening dozens of times over the course of my career. It's happened to me personally, and I've seen it happen to others. Having separate configuration sections for different environments is a rather common convention in the Rails world. Is it a bad idea? Offhand I can't say: what would you replace it with? Why not something that looks like sysctl [1] syntax? http://www5.us.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/configtuning-sysctl.html - Chris _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
