+# This file provides a helper which loads the contents of a given file
+# relative to a common root path. The helper ensures there is consistent
+# path resolution for loading and error messaging for missing or empty
+# files that are required.
+#
+# The primary usage of this file is for loading product-level configuration
+# from plaintext files. An example usage in a makefile is:
+# BRILLO_CRASH_SERVER := $(call cfgtree_get,brillo/crash_server,required)
+#
+# Note the use of an immediate assignment. If any other variable assignment is
+# used, be sure to test that it resolves as and when expected.
+#
+# Populating the file is as simple as:
+# cd $PRODUCT_DIR
+# mkdir -p config/brillo
+# echo https://some.server/handle/crash.cgi > config/brillo/crash_server
+#
+# Any lines beginning with '#' will be ignored, but if a '#' is required, it
+# can be inserted by simply starting the line with a space which will be
+# stripped off during the loading process.
+#
+# Note, there is no central mapping of variables to files. If any files will
+# be used from different contexts, be sure to keep all users in sync.
+#
+# For any PRODUCT_* variable set using this mechanism, it is possible to
+# verify a correct assignment by calling:
+#
+# m dump-products
+#
+
+# Path to load from
+CFGTREE_ROOT ?= $(LOCAL_PATH)
+CFGTREE_PREFIX ?= config
+CFGTREE_PATH := $(CFGTREE_ROOT)/$(CFGTREE_PREFIX)
+
+# Command to run to dump the file content.
+CFGTREE_CMD ?= grep -v -e '^$(shell printf '\043')'
+
+# $(1) is the file to load from cfgtree
+#
+# Returns the output of $(CFGTREE_CMD) $(1)/$(2) if the file exists.
+# Normally, this is all the text excluding lines starting with '#'.
