Hocon Configuration Format
The Hocon Configuration Format extends the Vert.x Configuration Retriever and provides the support for the HOCON(https://github.com/typesafehub/config/blob/master/HOCON.md) format.
It supports includes, json, properties, macros…
Using the Hocon Configuration Format
To use the Hocon Configuration Format, add the following dependency to the dependencies section of your build descriptor:
-
Maven (in your
pom.xml
):
<dependency>
<groupId>io.vertx</groupId>
<artifactId>vertx-config-hocon</artifactId>
<version>${maven.version}</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>io.vertx</groupId>
<artifactId>vertx-config</artifactId>
<version>${maven.version}</version>
</dependency>
-
Gradle (in your
build.gradle
file):
compile 'io.vertx:vertx-config:${maven.version}'
compile 'io.vertx:vertx-config-hocon:${maven.version}'
Configuring the store to use HOCON
Once added to your classpath or dependencies, you need to configure the `ConfigRetriever`to use this format:
var store = ConfigStoreOptions()
.setType("file")
.setFormat("hocon")
.setConfig(new io.vertx.core.json.JsonObject().put("path", "my-config.conf"))
var retriever = ConfigRetriever.create(vertx, ConfigRetrieverOptions()
.setStores(Set(store))
)
You just need to set format
to hocon
.
