Options

options.disallow - String or array of strings

Name(s) of environments to exclude usage of env-overlay. The module will bailout early if the the environment name given matches the string, or one of the strings, given.

Default: "production"

options.background - Object { key (env name): value (any valid CSS color) }

A map of background colors for given environment names. There are default colors for the environments "local", "development", "staging" and "demo".

Should an environment not have a matching background color key/value provided in options, then a color will be assigned based on the environment name.
