Using the Ruby on Rails, write some code that can parse a configuration file following the specifications below. Follow your own best practices and coding/design principles.
Create application controller and routes to handle configuration file parsing into the model. Do not use existing "complete" configuration parsing libraries/functions, we want to see how you would write the code to do this. Use of core and stdlib functions/objects such as string manipulation, regular expressions, etc is ok. We should be able to get the values of the config parameters in code, via their name. How this is done specifically is up to you. Boolean-like config values (on/off, yes/no, true/false) should return real booleans: true/false. Numeric config values should return real numerics: integers, doubles, etc Ignore or error out on invalid config lines, your choice. Please include a short example usage of your code so we can see how you call it/etc.
Valid config file:

All these config lines are valid
