Direct Known Subclasses:

ConcurrentConfigSpec

public class ConfigSpec
extends java.lang.Object

Represents a specification for a configuration. With a ConfigSpec you can define mandatory "properties" that the config's values must have and then check that the config is correct, and even correct it automatically!

Defining entries

Use the "define" methods to define that some entry must be present in the config, and how its value must be. You have to specify - at least - the path of the value and a default value that will be used to replace the config's value in case it's incorrect.
For instance, the following code defines a value with path "a.b" and which must be a String:

configSpec.define("a.b", "defaultString");

Validators

Some methods (like the one used in the previous paragraph) automatically generate the rules that make a config value correct or incorrect. But you can provide your own rule by specifying a "validator": a Predicate that returns true if and only if the given value is correct.
For instance, this defines a value "arraylist" that must be an ArrayList: configSpec.define("arraylist", new ArrayList(), o -> o instanceof ArrayList);

Suppliers of default value

If the default value is heavy to create you should use a Supplier instead of creating a default value, which is useless if the config's value happens to be correct.
For instance, the code in the previous paragraph could be rewritten like this: configSpec.define("heavy", () -> new ArrayList(), o -> o instanceof ArrayList);

Checking configurations

Use the "isCorrect" methods to check whether a configuration is correct or not. A configuration is correct if and only if:*

1. Each entry defined in the spec is present in the config.
2. Each entry in the config is defined in the spec.
3. Each entry in the config has a correct value according to the spec.

Correcting configurations

Use the "correct" methods to correct a configuration. The correction behaves like this:

1. Each entry that is defined in the spec but absent from the config is added to the config, with the default value defined in the spec.
2. Each entry that isn't defined in the spec is removed from the config.
3. Each incorrect config value is replaced by the default value specified in the spec.
