# LuaConfig Methods

A `LuaConfig` object provides access to configuration information. You can retrieve a `LuaConfig` for a given configuration file using the `get_config` function.

If you have a `LuaConfig` object called `config` you can call its methods using the '`:`' operator. For example:

    config:getValue(sectionName, parameterName)

getValue | Returns the value of the configuration parameter key in a given section.
getValues | Returns all the values of a configuration parameter if you have multiple values for a key (for example, a comma-separated list or numbered list like keyN).
