Automatic configuration decoding for Scala

Setup

SBT

val confideVersion = "0.0.3"

libraryDependencies ++= Seq(
  "io.estatico" %% "confide-core" % confideVersion,
  "io.estatico" %% "confide-macros" % confideVersion,
)

To be able to use the @Conf macro, you'll need the Paradise compiler plugin.

addCompilerPlugin("org.scalamacros" % "paradise" % "2.1.0" cross CrossVersion.full),

Usage

Given the configuration file below -

api {
  cache {
    enable: true
    ttl: 5m
  }
  greetings = ["Hello", "Hola", "Bonjour"]
}

We can define the following Scala classes to automatically decode the config for us -

import io.estatico.confide._

@Conf final case class AppConfig(
  api: ApiConf
)

@Conf final case class ApiConf(
  cache: CacheConf,
  greetings: List[String]
)

@Conf final case class CacheConf(
  enable: Boolean,
  ttl: FiniteDuration
)

The case classes are pretty self-evident; they simply define the structure of the config we wish to decode.

The @Conf macro will derive an instance of FromConfObj for the annotated case class. FromConf[A] and FromConfObj[A] are type classes which describes how to decode config values to type A. Derivation leverages the wonderful shapeless library. All the @Conf macro does is inject an implicit FromConfObj.derive into the case class' companion object.

scala> ConfideFactory.load[AppConfig]()
AppConfig(ApiConf(CacheConf(true,300000000000 nanoseconds),List(Hello, Hola, Bonjour)))
