# File Source
|
|
|
|
The file source reads config from a file.
|
|
|
|
It uses the File extension to determine the Format e.g `config.yaml` has the yaml format.
|
|
It does not make use of encoders or interpet the file data. If a file extension is not present
|
|
the source Format will default to the Encoder in options.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
A config file format in json
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"hosts": {
|
|
"database": {
|
|
"address": "10.0.0.1",
|
|
"port": 3306
|
|
},
|
|
"cache": {
|
|
"address": "10.0.0.2",
|
|
"port": 6379
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## New Source
|
|
|
|
Specify file source with path to file. Path is optional and will default to `config.json`
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
fileSource := file.NewSource(
|
|
file.WithPath("/tmp/config.json"),
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## File Format
|
|
|
|
To load different file formats e.g yaml, toml, xml simply specify them with their extension
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
fileSource := file.NewSource(
|
|
file.WithPath("/tmp/config.yaml"),
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to specify a file without extension, ensure you set the encoder to the same format
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
e := toml.NewEncoder()
|
|
|
|
fileSource := file.NewSource(
|
|
file.WithPath("/tmp/config"),
|
|
source.WithEncoder(e),
|
|
)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Load Source
|
|
|
|
Load the source into config
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
// Create new config
|
|
conf := config.NewConfig()
|
|
|
|
// Load file source
|
|
conf.Load(fileSource)
|
|
```
