1.0.0

• First Release

Usage

//TestConfig.cs
public class TestConfig
{
  public string TestValue1 { get; set; }
}

//TestConfig.json
{
  "TestValue1": "Conf Test Value 2"
}

var conf = Loader.LoadFile<TestConfig>("TestConf.json");
conf.TestValue1; //Conf Test Value 2

Advanced Usage

It is possible to specify that parts of your config come from other files

//TestConfig.cs
public class TestConfig
{
  public string TestValue1 { get; set; }

  [FileSource("SubFile.json")]
  public TestSubFileConfig subConfig { get; set; }
}

TestConfig.json stays the same

//SubFile.json
{
  "SubFileValue": "SubFileValue Test value"
}

var conf = Loader.LoadFile<TestConfig>("TestConf.json");
conf.TestValue1; //Conf Test Value 2
conf.subConfig.SubFileValue; //SubFileValue Test value

Setting the file config root

You can set the config root

Aniel.SimpleConf.Loader.ConfigRoot = "<path to folder with config files>";

//Make sure you set useConfigRoot
Loader.LoadFile<TestConfig>("TestConf.json", useConfigRoot: true);

Overwriting config root with environment variables

If you set the environment variable CONFIG_ROOT_PATH you can overwrite the config root.

If you want to change the name of the environment variable you can use:

Aniel.SimpleConf.SimpleConfConstants.EnvironmentConfigPathName = "<yor environment variable name>";
