Configuring dipper with keys and passwords

Add private configuration parameters into your private conf.json file. Examples of items to put into the config include:

• database connection parameters (in the “dbauth” object)
• ftp login credentials
• api keys (in the “keys” object)

These are organized such that within any object (dbauth, keys, etc), they are keyed again by the source’s name.

Here is an example:

{
  "keys": {
    "omim" : "foo",
  },
 "dbauth" : {
   "mgi" : {
     "user" : "bar",
     "password" : "baz"
   }
}

This file must be placed in the dipper package directory and named conf.json. If building locally this is in the dipper/dipper/ directory. If installed with pip this will be in path/to/env/lib/python3.x/site-packages/dipper/ directory.
