This is a configuration file loading utility.
This package will allow loading the nearest config file based on a specific pattern, either <name>.roboconf.yml or config/<name>.roboconf.yml. The loader will look through the parents of the current file until it either matches the pattern and loads the file or reaches the root directory and raises an exception.
pip install git+https://github.com/therubic-canada/roboconf.git
import roboconf
conf = roboconf.load_nearest_conf(__file__)
