Simple tool for creating views over the typesafe config.
Lets take the following config as an example:
myapp {
kafka {
brokers = ["broker1:9092", "broker2:9092", "broker3.9092"]
group-id = "my-group-id"
shutdown-timeout = 1 second
}
}If you want this config in your app, you will meet a lot of obstacles along the way. The main problem is, that the config contract is not clearly defined and mocking configuration in yours tests will be painful.
To make the configuration less painful to use, let's define a clear contract for our application.
@ConfigView
interface MyConfigView {
@ConfigView.StringList(path = "brokers")
List<String> brokers();
@ConfigView.String(path = "my-group-id")
String groupId();
@ConfigView.Duration(path = "shutdown-timeout")
Duration shutdownTimeout();
}Now we can simply create a view over our config and make the application great again ;)
final MyConfigView view = ConfigViewFactory.create(MyConfigView.class, config, "myapp.kafka");To build the Config View artifacts, the following dependencies are required:
- Git
- Java 8
Building the project itself is a matter of:
git clone https://github.com/datadrivencz/configview
cd configview
./gradlew publishToMavenLocal
