Name

find_config_location — return the location of the requested config file

Synopsis

use Wacs;

scalar find_config_location( configuration_filename);

scalar configuration_filename;

Summary

find_config_location returns the location of the requested config file. It first checks the directory specified by the WACS_CONFIG environment variable, and then tries the built-in list of possible WACS configuration file locations. This list is normally: /etc/wacs.d, then /usr/local/etc/wacs.d and finally /opt/wacs/etc/wacs.d. If the specified file is not found in any of these locations, a null string is returned.

	Note
	The location specified by the environment variable `WACS_CONFIG` takes precidence, if and only if the requested file is present there. The normal directories are searched afterwards if the file is not found in the directory specified.

Availability

find_config_location is available in both perl and php.
