Coffig is a simple and powerful configuration library for the Java language. It is built upon the idea of mapping configuration trees to Java objects. The following configuration tree in YAML:
some:
string: value1
array: [1, 2, 3]
object:
attr1: value1
attr2: [iris, jasmine, kiwi]Can be retrieved as simply as:
Coffig coffig = Coffig.builder().withProviders(new JacksonProvider().addSource("url/to/file.yaml")).build();
String stringValue = coffig.get(String.class, "some.string");
int[] intArray = coffig.get(int[].class, "some.array");
MyPojo myPojo = coffig.get(MyPojo.class, "some.object");
String defaultValue = coffig.getOptional(String.class, "unknown.node").orElse("default");Coffig is able to map any Java class by introspecting its members but can handle special cases with dedicated mappers. Mappers for several types are built-in:
- Array,
- List,
- Set,
- Map,
- Enum,
- Optional,
- URI/URL,
- Properties,
- Class.
You can add you own mappers by implementing the ConfigurationMapper interface and registering it through the ServiceLoader mechanism.
Multiple providers can be used at once, each providing a separate configuration tree that will be merged into a global one. Several providers are built-in:
- Jackson (for YAML and JSON sources),
- Environment variables,
- System properties.
