Hi Dan - it's possible to load configuration from environment variables as of version 0.0.2 (released today) - you can now put [::env :env-var-name]in your configuration to look up the 'ENV_VAR_NAME' environment variable. More info in the env-vars section <https://github.com/james-henderson/phoenix#config-in-environment-variables> of the README.
Re: tagged literals: I'm pretty sure that's possible too - I can't see why it wouldn't honour readers that you put into your data-readers.edn file (haven't tried this out yet though), but there's currently no way to pass custom readers to Phoenix directly. I think this is one of the downsides of going for a plugin+library approach rather than just a library - I've split it out today so that it is possible to call the library directly, but it could still do with being a bit more flexible, I think!
