SimplerConfig 1.0.4

SimplerConfig

This package provides you with a simple-config option for your C# project.

Usage

using SimplerConfig;
var setting = SConfig.Instance["KEY"];
var nestedSetting = SConfig.Instance["TopKey:SubKey"];

Options

1. Default Configurations should be placed in appsettings.json.
2. It will be overwritten by settings in custom.conf.json
3. Those settings can be overwritten by Enviroment Variables.
4. Finally you can pass settings as CommandLine arguments.

Format

You access sub-elements of JSON with :.
Example:

{
    "plugin":
    {
        "name":"SimpleConfig"
    }
}

Access with

SimplerConfig.SConfig.Instance["plugin:name"]

You can overwrite it by

• changing it in custom.conf.json
• setting plugin:name="YourName"
• or by passing --plugin:name="AnotherName"

If you can think of a simple way please open an issue 😃

Using Commandline Arguments

To enable the use of commandline arguments add this at the start of your Main(string[] args):

SimplerConfig.Instance.StartArgs = args;

Including JSON Config

By default appsettings.json and custom.conf.json aren't copied on build. If you want to include the settings with your build you have to add the following to your .csproj file:

[...]
  <ItemGroup>
    <None Include="custom.conf.json" CopyToOutputDirectory="Always" CopyToPublishDirectory="Always"/>
    <None Include="appsettings.json" CopyToOutputDirectory="Always" CopyToPublishDirectory="Always"/>
  </ItemGroup>
</Project>
