This might be a CLI or web app. \r\n\r\nI envision a kind of \"quiz\" format that prompts a user for several required and optional fields, perhaps allowing the inclusion of several common configuration alternatives.\r\n\r\nWe may end doing something custom for our use case, but it seems there's a general utility as well, to move configuration file generation from a developer's task to something that could be done by a support team or sales team.\r\n\r\nI'll work on this some myself if I have time."},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/lorenwest/node-config/issues/comments/155810134","html_url":"https://github.com/lorenwest/node-config/issues/257#issuecomment-155810134","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/lorenwest/node-config/issues/257","id":155810134,"user":{"login":"markstos","id":25829,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/25829?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos","html_url":"https://github.com/markstos","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/markstos/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-11-11T15:13:33Z","updated_at":"2015-11-11T15:13:33Z","body":" @lorenwest, you are right.
