radj307.AppConfig 1.0.2

AppConfig

Lightweight C# application configuration using JSON format.

For the best results, this should be used with Fody & its PropertyChanged addon so you don't have to write your own PropertyChanged notifier.

To quickly get started with Fody if you haven't used it before, create a FodyWeavers.xml file in your project directory with the content:

<Weavers>
  <PropertyChanged/>
</Weavers>

Example

Check out the full UsageExample

using System.ComponentModel;

namespace UsageExample
{
    // Create a class that derives from AppConfig.Configuration (custom file loader implementation) OR AppConfig.ConfigurationFile (JSON)
    public class MyConfig : AppConfig.ConfigurationFile, INotifyPropertyChanged
    {
        public MyConfig(string? locationOverride = null) : base(locationOverride ?? "ExampleConfig.json")
        {
            // This will automatically save the config whenever a property changes:
            this.PropertyChanged += (s, e) => this.Save();
        }
        public MyConfig() : this(null) { }

        public string Text { get; set; } = string.Empty;
        public bool BoxIsChecked { get; set; } = false;
    }
}
