Small library for translating between HOCON, Java properties, and JSON documents and circe's JSON AST.
At a high-level it can be used as a circe powered front-end for the Typesafe config library to enable boilerplate free loading of settings into Scala types. More generally it provides parsers and printers for interoperating with Typesafe config's JSON AST.
To use this library configure your sbt project with the following line:
libraryDependencies += "io.circe" %% "circe-config" % "0.8.0"The following examples use io.circe:circe-generic as a dependency to
automatically derive decoders. They load the configuration found in
application.conf.
scala> import com.typesafe.config.{ ConfigFactory, ConfigMemorySize }
scala> import io.circe.generic.auto._
scala> import io.circe.config.syntax._
scala> import scala.concurrent.duration.FiniteDuration
scala> case class ServerSettings(host: String, port: Int, timeout: FiniteDuration, maxUpload: ConfigMemorySize)
scala> case class HttpSettings(server: ServerSettings, version: Option[Double])
scala> case class AppSettings(http: HttpSettings)
// Load default configuration and decode instances
scala> import io.circe.config.parser
scala> parser.decode[AppSettings]()
res0: Either[io.circe.Error,AppSettings] = Right(AppSettings(HttpSettings(ServerSettings(localhost,8080,5 seconds,ConfigMemorySize(5242880)),Some(1.1))))
scala> parser.decodePath[ServerSettings]("http.server")
res1: Either[io.circe.Error,ServerSettings] = Right(ServerSettings(localhost,8080,5 seconds,ConfigMemorySize(5242880)))
scala> val config = ConfigFactory.load()
// Decode instances from an already loaded configuration
scala> config.as[ServerSettings]("http.server")
res2: Either[io.circe.Error,ServerSettings] = Right(ServerSettings(localhost,8080,5 seconds,ConfigMemorySize(5242880)))
scala> config.as[HttpSettings]("http")
res3: Either[io.circe.Error,HttpSettings] = Right(HttpSettings(ServerSettings(localhost,8080,5 seconds,ConfigMemorySize(5242880)),Some(1.1)))
scala> config.as[AppSettings]
res4: Either[io.circe.Error,AppSettings] = Right(AppSettings(HttpSettings(ServerSettings(localhost,8080,5 seconds,ConfigMemorySize(5242880)),Some(1.1))))If you are using cats.effect.IO, or some other type F[_] that provides a
cats.ApplicativeError, you can use the following:
scala> import cats.effect.unsafe.implicits.global
scala> import cats.effect.IO
scala> import io.circe.generic.auto._
scala> import io.circe.config.parser
scala> case class ServerSettings(host: String, port: Int)
scala> case class HttpSettings(server: ServerSettings, version: Option[Double])
scala> case class AppSettings(http: HttpSettings)
scala> parser.decodeF[IO, AppSettings]()
res0: cats.effect.IO[AppSettings] = IO(AppSettings(HttpSettings(ServerSettings(localhost,8080),Some(1.1))))
scala> val settings: IO[AppSettings] = parser.decodeF[IO, AppSettings]()
scala> settings.unsafeRunSync()
res1: AppSettings = AppSettings(HttpSettings(ServerSettings(localhost,8080),Some(1.1)))
scala> parser.decodePathF[IO, ServerSettings]("http.server")
res2: cats.effect.IO[ServerSettings] = IO(ServerSettings(localhost,8080))
scala> parser.decodePathF[IO, ServerSettings]("path.not.found").attempt.unsafeRunSync()
res3: Either[Throwable,ServerSettings] = Left(io.circe.ParsingFailure: Path not found in config)This makes the configuration directly available in your F[_], such as cats.effect.IO, which handles any errors.
