hierarchy <- "default:
  paths:
    data: !expr list(DEV = '/demo/DEV/username/project1/data',
                     PROD = '/demo/PROD/project1/data')
    output: !expr list(DEV = '/demo/DEV/username/project1/output',
                       PROD = '/demo/PROD/project1/output')
    programs: !expr list(DEV = '/demo/DEV/username/project1/programs',
                         PROD = '/demo/PROD/project1/programs')
    docs: !expr list(DEV = 'docs',
                     PROD = 'docs')"

writeLines(hierarchy, file.path(tmpdir, "hierarchy.yml"))

config <- config::get(file = file.path(tmpdir, "hierarchy.yml"))
