Move configuration to key-value

[ricardoekm]

Related to #3 .

Rely on line position for configuration makes it hard to read and write the file and is fragile. This also makes impossible to add comments to the config.

The recommended approach usually is to use a key-value implementation (.json for Javascript or .properties for Java). Javascript has native support for .json, which makes it the natural choice.

Kyrix/compiler/src/index.js

Lines 23 to 30 in 0ce6879

	var lines = fs
	.readFileSync(configFile)
	.toString()
	.split("\n");
	this.config = {};
	this.config.serverPortNumber = lines[1].replace("\r", "");
	this.config.database = lines[2].replace("\r", "").toLowerCase();
	this.config.serverName = lines[3].replace("\r", "");

Splitting the configuration of the compiler and the back-end and using .json + Config Module seems a good option.
