[Bob Jolliffe <bobjolliffe@xxxxxxxxx>]

For similar (tangentially related) configuration, I have used json.
See below.  Either yaml or json (or even dreaded xml), I agree with
Jason that a bit of structure can be beneficial.  Yaml syntax is maybe
the most forgiving for user editing by hand.

{
"dhis2Systems" : {
"hmis" : {
"type" : "dhis2",
"name": "hmis",
"baseUrl": "http://hmis:8080/hmis";,
"user": "synch",
"password": "xxxxx"
},
"hietest" : {
"type" : "dhis2",
"name": "hietest",
"baseUrl": "http://dhis:8080/hietest";,
