	var rocketConfig = require('rocket-config')('./config'),
		soloFamily = rocketConfig.config.Rebels.Solo;

	/**
		The variable "soloFamily" contains an array of the Solo family data.
		[
            {
                "name": "Leia",
                "roles": ["General", "Resistance Leader"]
            },
            {
                "name": "Han",
                "roles": ["Smuggler", "Scoundrel", "Captain"],
                "ship": "Corellian YT-1300f light freighter (Millennium Falcon)",
                "bestFriend": "Chewbacca"
            },
            {
                "name": "Ben",
                "aka": "Kylo Ren",
                "roles": ["Commander", "Knight of Ren"]
            }
        ]
	**/

"rocketConfig" is the data processor. "config" is the domain of the data that was retrieved.

Everything after that is the body of the JSON data.

Returned Data Structure

JSON data.

Options

domain - Retrieves all of the config files with the specified domain prefix.
env    - The working environment of the server, this is an override used for testing and debugging.
os     - The operating system of the server, this is an override used for testing and debugging.

Examples

If you want to override the operating system config data, simply add the os key/value to the options.

	var configOptions = {os: "debian"},
		rocketConfig = require('rocket-config')('./config', configOptions);
