Examples

Read YML files

Map<String, String> properties = new YmlConfig("dev").getConfig();

• Returns the merged configuration as a Map<String, String>

Map<String, String> properties = new YmlConfig().getConfig();

• Reads and returns project.yml

Read PROPERTIES files

Map<String, String> properties = new PropertyConfig("dev").getConfig();

• Reads dev.properties and project.properties
• Merges both files - environment property is considered to return when duplicate key exists
• Returns the merged configuration as a Map<String, String>

Map<String, String> properties = new PropertyConfig().getConfig();
