Config

A package containing a set of classes and interfaces that allows you to add configurations to components.

Description

The config package contains a set of classes and interfaces that allows you to add configurations to components. These configurations can contain different sets of configuration paramters, which can be used to define things such as access control credentials.


Interfaces

IConfigurable

An interface to set configuration parameters to an object. It can be added to any existing class by implementing a single configure() method. If you need to emphasise the fact that configure() method can be called multiple times to change object configuration in runtime, use IReconfigurable interface instead.

IReconfigurable

An interface to set configuration parameters to an object.
It is similar to IConfigurable interface, but emphasises the fact that configure() method can be called more than once to change object configuration in runtime.


Classes

ConfigParams

Contains a key-value map with configuration parameters. All values stored as strings and can be serialized as JSON or string forms. When retrieved the values can be automatically converted on read using GetAsXXX methods.

NameResolver

A helper class that allows to extract component name from configuration parameters. The name can be defined in “id”, “name” parameters or inside a component descriptor.

OptionsResolver

A helper class to parameters from “options” configuration section.
