Contents/Features​

The juneau-config library contains a powerful API for creating and using INI-style config files.

Key Capabilities:

  • Support for storing and retrieving any of the following data types:
    • Primitives
    • POJOs
    • Beans
    • Arrays, Maps, and Collections of anything
    • Binary data
  • Transactional modifications with commit/rollback capabilities
  • A listener API
  • Filesystem watcher integration allowing changes on the file system to be reflected in real-time
  • Modifications through the Config class (e.g. add/remove/modify sections and keys, add/remove comments and whitespace, etc...) DO NOT cause loss of formatting in the file - all existing whitespace and comments are preserved
  • Value encoding for added security
  • Support for SVL variables
  • Directly populate beans from config sections
  • Accessing config sections through Java interface proxies
  • An extensible storage API allows you to write your own config storage (e.g. storage in databases or the cloud)
