Create the file you need in your config directory, for example my_config.yml and populate it with the options you require per environment:

development:
  debug_enabled: true

test:
  debug_enabled: false

production:
  debug_enabled: false

Then create a file called load_config.rb in your config/initializers directory with this in it:

MY_CONFIG = YAML.load_file("#{Rails.root}/config/my_config.yml")[Rails.env]

Then you can use those settings in your applications like so:

if MY_CONFIG[:debug_enabled]
  # ... do something special ...
end
