Synchronous way to load config.

[strctr]

Currently I can load config in (1) async way with promise or in (2) compile-time with webpack loader. I purpose add method like loadConfigSync to load config in synchronous way, as node-config do.

Really need it?

Why not to use something like this in entry point:

function main(config) {
  // application initialize code
}

loadConfig(...).then(main)

I just want require config folder like main/config and get my config. Now I can export from main/config/index.js only a function that describe how to load config and call this function at every client. This produces verbose code where it isn't necessary (config is isn't changed over time, so there is no need in async code flow). For example, I can avoid promises this when I build my app with webpack (thanks for webpack loadfer). But when i test my app i have to wrap tests in function.

+1 for synchronous.
One might need to read from the config in different files. To have it asynchronous adds complexity where it's not needed.
As @anton-kabysh mentioned, the config is static so not sure to see the need of being async.
