+# Settings Path Manager
+A library which helps locating configuration paths in Ghost. For example configs for dynamic routes or redirects.
+
+## Install
+
+`npm install @tryghost/settings-path-manager --save`
+
+or
+
+`yarn add @tryghost/settings-path-manager`
+
+
+## Usage
+Example use in to create routes.yaml configuration files:
+```js
+const config = require('../shared/config'); // or whatever place the storage folders are configured at
+
+const settingsPathManager = new SettingsPathManager({
+    type: 'routes',
+    paths: [config.getContentPath('settings')]
+});
+
+const filePath = settingsPathManager.getDefaultFilePath();
+
+console.log(config.getContentPath('settings')); // -> '/content/data/'
+console.log(filePath); // -> '/content/data/routes.yaml'
+```
+
+## Develop
