Getting started

Basic usage

Prepare some configuration files in a directory, like, hello.json:

{
  "Hello": "World!",
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "MyDatabase": "Some=Thing; Here=There;"
  }
}

Serve all configuration files in current working directory:

$ kon

Curl it and check the response:

$ curl -s localhost:5000 | jq
{
  "Hello": "World!",
  "ConnectionStrings:MyDatabase": "Some=Thing; Here=There;"
}

Authentication

Add --token option (or set the TOKEN environment variable) to enable authentication:

$ kon --token myauthtoken

Then provide the token in Authorization header:

$ curl -s localhost:5000 -H "Authorization: Bearer myauthtoken" | jq

Change listening port

Specify listener prefix:

$ kon --urls http://127.0.0.1:80
