config package

The config package extends viper with local customisations.

Unless the file format is given to Load then all the viper formats are supported.

Expansion of values

The following package functions and type methods are overridden to add expansion of embedded strings of the form ${name} and $name:

The string values are passed to ExpandString which supports a range of data substitutions.

Credentials

Credentials are supported with memguard Enclaves and LockedBuffers. There are methods:

Expandable Formats

The documentation below is reproduced from the source comments for expand.go and should be kept in-sync by package maintainers (using go doc pkg/config as the primary source).

Expandable Formats

The Expand family of functions return the input with all occurrences of the form ${name} replaced using an os.Expand-like function (but without support for $name in the input) for the built-in and optional formats (in the order of priority) below. The caller can use options to define additional expansion functions based on a "prefix:", disable external lookups and also to pass in lookup tables referred to as value maps.

  • ${enc:keyfile[|keyfile...]:encodedvalue}

    "encodedvalue" is an AES256 ciphertext in Geneos format - or, if not prefixed with +encs+ then it is processed as an expandable string itself and can be a reference to another configuration key or a file or remote url containing one - which will be decoded using the key file(s) given. Each "keyfile" must be one of either an absolute path, a path relative to the working directory of the program, or if prefixed with "~/" then relative to the home directory of the user running the program. The first valid decode (see below) is returned.

    To minimise (but not wholly eliminate) any false-positive decodes that occur in some circumstances when using the wrong key file, the decoded value is only returned if it is a valid UTF-8 string as per utf8.Valid.

    This prefix can be disabled with the config.NoDecode() option.

    Note: The keyfile(s) can be in Windows file path format as the fields for keyfiles and the encoded value are split based on the last colon (:) in the string and not any contained in a drive letter path. On Windows paths may also contain normal backslashes, they are not considered escape characters once extracted from the underlying configuration syntax (which may impose it's own rules, e.g. JSON)

    Examples:

      password: ${enc:~/.keyfile:+encs+9F2C3871E105EC21E4F0D5A7921A937D}
  password: ${enc:/etc/geneos/keyfile.aes:env:ENCODED_PASSWORD}
  password: ${enc:~/.config/geneos/keyfile1.aes:app.password}
  password: ${enc:~/.keyfile.aes:config:mySecret}

  • ${config:key} or ${path.to.config}

    Fetch the "key" configuration value (for single layered configurations, where a sub-level dot cannot be used) or if any value containing one or more dots "." will be looked-up in the existing configuration that the method is called on. The underlying configuration is not changed and values are resolved each time Expand*() is called. No locking of the configuration is done.

  • ${key}

    key will be substituted with the value of the first matching key from the tables set using config.LookupTable(), in the order passed to the function. If no lookup tables are set (as opposed to the key not being found in any of the tables) then name is looked up as an environment variable, as below.

  • ${env:name}

    name will be substituted with the contents of the environment variable of the same name. If no environment variable with name exists then the value returned is an empty string.

The additional prefixes below are enabled by default. They can be disabled using the config.ExternalLookups() option.

  • ${.../path/to/file} or ${~/file} or ${file://path/to/file} or ${file:~/path/to/file}

    The contents of the referenced file will be read. Multiline files are used as-is; this can, for example, be used to read PEM certificate files or keys. If the path is prefixed with ~/ (or as an addition to a standard file url, if the first / is replaced with a tilde ~) then the path is relative to the home directory of the user running the process.

    Any name that contains a / but not a : will be treated as a file, if file reading is enabled. File paths can be absolute or relative to the working directory (or relative to the home directory, as above)

    For Windows file paths you must use the URL style ${file:...} formats, otherwise any drive identifier will be treated as a partial expansion type and cause unexpected behaviour.

    Examples:

      certfile: ${file://etc/ssl/cert.pem}
  template: ${file:~/templates/autogen.gotmpl}
  relative: ${./file.txt}

  • ${https://host/path} or ${http://host/path}

    The contents of the URL are fetched and used similarly as for local files above. The URL is passed to http.Get and supports proxies, embedded Basic Authentication and other features from that function.

The prefix below can be enabled with the config.Expressions() option.

  • ${expr:EXPRESSION}

    EXPRESSION is evaluated using https://github.com/maja42/goval. Inside the expression all configuration items are available as variables with the top level map env set to the environment variables available. All results are returned as strings. An empty string may mean there was an error in evaluating the expression.

Additional custom prefixes can be added with the config.Prefix() option.

The bare form $name is NOT supported, unlike os.Expand as this can unexpectedly match values containing valid literal dollar signs.

Expansion is not recursive. Configuration values are read and stored as literals and are expanded each time they are used. For each substitution any leading and trailing whitespace are removed. External sources are fetched each time they are used and so there may be a performance impact as well as the value unexpectedly changing during a process lifetime.

Any errors (particularly from substitutions from external files or remote URLs) will result in an empty or corrupt string being returned. Error returns are intentionally discarded and an empty string substituted. Where a value contains multiple expandable items processing will continue even after an error for one of them.

It is not currently possible to escape the syntax supported by ExpandString and if it is necessary to have a configuration value be a literal of the form "${name}" then you can set an otherwise unused item to the value and refer to it using the dotted syntax, e.g. for YAML

config:
  real: ${config.literal}
  literal: "${unchanged}"

In the above a reference to ${config.real} will return the literal string ${unchanged} as there is no recursive lookups.

Overview

Package config adds local extensions to viper as well as supporting Geneos encryption key files and basic encryption and decryption.

Expandable Formats

The Expand family of functions return the input with all occurrences of the form ${name} replaced using an os.Expand-like function (but without support for $name in the input) for the built-in and optional formats (in the order of priority) below. The caller can use options to define additional expansion functions based on a "prefix:", disable external lookups and also to pass in lookup tables referred to as value maps. 

${enc:keyfile[|keyfile...]:encodedvalue}

  "encodedvalue" is an AES256 ciphertext in Geneos format - or, if
  not prefixed with `+encs+` then it is processed as an expandable
  string itself and can be a reference to another configuration key
  or a file or remote url containing one - which will be decoded
  using the key file(s) given. Each "keyfile" must be one of either
  an absolute path, a path relative to the working directory of the
  program, or if prefixed with "~/" then relative to the home
  directory of the user running the program. The first valid decode
  (see below) is returned.

  To minimise (but not wholly eliminate) any false-positive decodes
  that occur in some circumstances when using the wrong key file,
  the decoded value is only returned if it is a valid UTF-8 string
  as per [utf8.Valid].

  This prefix can be disabled with the `config.NoDecode()` option.

  Note: The keyfile(s) can be in Windows file path format as the
  fields for keyfiles and the encoded value are split based on the
  last colon (`:`) in the string and not any contained in a drive
  letter path. On Windows paths may also contain normal backslashes,
  they are not considered escape characters once extracted from the
  underlying configuration syntax (which may impose it's own rules,
  e.g. JSON)

  Examples:

  - password: ${enc:~/.keyfile:+encs+9F2C3871E105EC21E4F0D5A7921A937D}
  - password: ${enc:/etc/geneos/keyfile.aes:env:ENCODED_PASSWORD}
  - password: ${enc:~/.config/geneos/keyfile1.aes:app.password}
  - password: ${enc:~/.keyfile.aes:config:mySecret}

${config:key} or ${path.to.config}

   Fetch the "key" configuration value (for single layered
   configurations, where a sub-level dot cannot be used) or if any
   value containing one or more dots "." will be looked-up in the
   existing configuration that the method is called on. The
   underlying configuration is not changed and values are resolved
   each time ExpandString() is called. No locking of the
   configuration is done.

${key}

  "key" will be substituted with the value of the first matching key
  from the tables set using config.LookupTable(), in the order passed
  to the function. If no lookup tables are set (as opposed to the
  key not being found in any of the tables) then name is looked up
  as an environment variable, as below.

${env:name}

  "name" will be substituted with the contents of the environment
  variable of the same name. If no environment variable with name
  exists then the value returned is an empty string.

The additional prefixes below are enabled by default. They can be
disabled using the config.ExternalLookups() option.

${.../path/to/file} or ${~/file} or ${file://path/to/file} or ${file:~/path/to/file}

  The contents of the referenced file will be read. Multiline files
  are used as-is; this can, for example, be used to read PEM
  certificate files or keys. If the path is prefixed with `~/` (or
  as an addition to a standard file url, if the first `/` is
  replaced with a tilde `~`) then the path is relative to the home
  directory of the user running the process.

  Any name that contains a `/` but not a `:` will be treated as a
  file, if file reading is enabled. File paths can be absolute or
  relative to the working directory (or relative to the home
  directory, as above)

  For Windows file paths you must use the URL style `${file:...}`
  formats, otherwise any drive identifier will be treated as a
  partial expansion type and cause unexpected behaviour.

  Examples:

  - certfile: ${file://etc/ssl/cert.pem}
  - template: ${file:~/templates/autogen.gotmpl}
  - relative: ${./file.txt}

${https://host/path} or ${http://host/path}

  The contents of the URL are fetched and used similarly as for
  local files above. The URL is passed to [http.Get] and supports
  proxies, embedded Basic Authentication and other features from
  that function.

The prefix below can be enabled with the config.Expressions() option.

${expr:EXPRESSION}

  EXPRESSION is evaluated using https://github.com/maja42/goval. Inside
  the expression all configuration items are available as variables
  with the top level map `env` set to the environment variables
  available. All results are returned as strings. An empty string
  may mean there was an error in evaluating the expression.

Additional custom prefixes can be added with the config.Prefix() option.

The bare form "$name" is NOT supported, unlike os.Expand as this can unexpectedly match values containing valid literal dollar signs.

Expansion is not recursive. Configuration values are read and stored as literals and are expanded each time they are used. For each substitution any leading and trailing whitespace are removed. External sources are fetched each time they are used and so there may be a performance impact as well as the value unexpectedly changing during a process lifetime.

Any errors (particularly from substitutions from external files or remote URLs) will result in an empty or corrupt string being returned. Error returns are intentionally discarded and an empty string substituted. Where a value contains multiple expandable items processing will continue even after an error for one of them.

It is not currently possible to escape the syntax supported by ExpandString and if it is necessary to have a configuration value be a literal of the form "${name}" then you can set an otherwise unused item to the value and refer to it using the dotted syntax, e.g. for YAML 

config:
  real: ${config.literal}
  literal: "${unchanged}"

In the above a reference to ${config.real} will return the literal string ${unchanged} as there is no recursive lookups.

func ParseCertificate added in v1.7.0 

func ParseCertificate(h host.Host, certfile string) (cert *x509.Certificate, err error)

ParseCertificate reads a PEM encoded cert from path on host h, return the first found as a parsed certificate. The returned certificate is not verified or validated beyond that of the underlying Go x509 package parsing functions.

func ParseCertificates added in v1.7.0 

func ParseCertificates(h host.Host, p string) (certs []*x509.Certificate, err error)

ParseCertificates reads a PEM encoded file from host h and returns all the certificates found (using the same rules as x509.ParseCertificates). The returned certificates are not verified or validated beyond that of the underlying Go x509 package parsing functions.

func ParseKey added in v1.7.0 

func ParseKey(der *memguard.Enclave) (privateKey any, publickey crypto.PublicKey, err error)

ParseKey tries to parse the DER encoded private key enclave, first as PKCS#8 and then as a PKCS#1 and finally as SEC1 (EC) if that fails. It returns the private and public keys or an error

func Path added in v1.5.0 

func Path(name string, options ...FileOptions) string

Path returns the full path to the first regular file found (potentially on a remote host if config.Remote() is used) that would be opened by Load given the same options. If no file is found then a path to the expected file in the first configured directory is returned. This allows for a default value to be returned for new files. If no directories are used then the plain filename is returned.

func PrivateKeyType added in v1.8.0 

func PrivateKeyType(der *memguard.Enclave) (keytype string)

PrivateKeyType returns the type of the DER encoded private key, suitable for use to NewPrivateKey

func PromoteFile added in v1.5.0 

func PromoteFile(r host.Host, paths ...string) (final string)

PromoteFile iterates over paths and finds the first regular file that exists. If this is not the first element in the paths slice then the found file is renamed to the path of the first element. The resulting final path is returned.

If the first element of paths is an empty string then no rename takes place and the first existing file is returned. If the first element is a directory then the file is moved into that directory through a rename operation and a file with the first matching basename of any other arguments is returned (this avoids the second call returning nothing).

func PublicKey added in v1.8.0 

func PublicKey(der *memguard.Enclave) (publickey crypto.PublicKey, err error)

PublicKey parses the DER encoded private key enclave and returns the public key if successful. It will first try as PKCS#8 and then PKCS#1 if that fails. Using this over the more general ParseKey() ensures the decoded private key is not returned to the caller when not required.

func ReadCertChain added in v1.8.0 

func ReadCertChain(h host.Host, p string) (pool *x509.CertPool)

ReadCertChain returns a certificate pool loaded from the file on host h at path p. If there is any error a nil pointer is returned.

func RegisterAlias added in v1.10.0 

func RegisterAlias(alias, key string)

func ResetConfig added in v1.5.0 

func ResetConfig(options ...FileOptions)

func SetString added in v1.10.0 

func SetString(key, value string, options ...ExpandOptions)

SetString sets the key to the value with options applied. This applies to the global configuration struct. See the other SetString for detailed behaviour.

func SetStringMapString added in v1.4.3 

func SetStringMapString(m string, vals map[string]string, options ...ExpandOptions)

SetStringMapString iterates over a map[string]string and sets each key to the value given. Viper's Set() doesn't support maps until the configuration is written to and read back from a file.

func SetStringSlice added in v1.10.0 

func SetStringSlice(key string, values []string, options ...ExpandOptions)

SetStringSlice sets the key to a slice of strings applying the replacement options as for SetString to each member of the slice

func UnmarshalKey added in v1.7.2 

func UnmarshalKey(key string, rawVal interface{}, opts ...viper.DecoderConfigOption) error

func UserConfigDir added in v1.3.2 

func UserConfigDir(username ...string) (confdir string, err error)

UserConfigDir returns the configuration directory for username, or is none given then the current user. If os.UserConfigDir() fails then we lookup the user and return a path relative to the homedir (which works around empty environments)

func UserHomeDir added in v1.11.0 

func UserHomeDir(username ...string) (home string, err error)

UserHomeDir returns the home directory for username, or if none given then the current user. This works around empty environments by falling back to looking up the user.

WritePrivateKey writes a DER encoded private key as a PKCS#8 encoded PEM file to path on host h. sets file permissions to 0600 (before umask)

Types

type Config 

type Config struct {
	Viper *viper.Viper

	Type string // The type of configuration file loaded
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

Config embeds Viper

func FindCreds added in v1.5.0 

func FindCreds(p string, options ...FileOptions) (creds *Config)

FindCreds looks for matching credentials in a default "credentials" file. Options are the same as for Load but the default KeyDelimiter is set to "::" as credential domains are likely to be hostnames or URLs. The longest match wins.

func GetConfig 

func GetConfig() *Config

GetConfig returns the global Config instance

func Load added in v1.5.0 

func Load(name string, options ...FileOptions) (c *Config, err error)

Load reads configuration values from internal defaults, external defaults and configuration files. The directories searched and the configuration file names can be controlled using options. The first match is loaded unless the config.MergeSettings() option is used, in which case all defaults are merged and then all non-defaults are merged in the order they were given.

Examples: 

config.Load("geneos", config.SetGlobal())

//go:embed somefile.json
var myDefaults []byte
Load("geneos", config.SetDefaults(myDefaults, "json"), config.SetConfigFile(configPath))

Options can be passed to change the default behaviour and to pass any embedded defaults or an existing viper.

for defaults see: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html

Regardless of errors loading configurations a configuration object is always returned.

The returned config object may be made up from multiple sources so there is no simple way of getting the name of the final configuration file used.

If the LoadFrom() option is set then all file access is via the given remote. Defaults and the primary configuration cannot be loaded from different remotes. The default is "localhost".

Is the SetConfigReader() option is passed to load the configuration from an io.Reader then this takes precedence over file discovery or SetConfigFile(). The configuration file format should be set with SetFileExtension() or it defaults as above.

TBD: windows equiv of above

func New 

func New(options ...FileOptions) *Config

New returns a Config instance initialised with a new viper instance. Can be called with config.DefaultExpandOptions(...) to set defaults for future calls that use Expand.

func ReadHOCONFile added in v1.4.1 

func ReadHOCONFile(file string) (c *Config, err error)

ReadHOCONFile loads a HOCON format configuration from file. To control behaviour and options like config.Load() use MergeHOCONConfig() or MergeHOCONFile() with an existing config.Config structure.

func Sub added in v1.11.0 

func Sub(key string) *Config

Sub returns a Config instance rooted at the key passed. If key does not exist then an empty config structure is returned, unlike viper which returns nil. It uses the mutex pointer from the caller so that locking of sub-config objects also applies to the original.

func (*Config) SetString added in v1.10.0 

func (c *Config) SetString(key, value string, options ...ExpandOptions)

SetString sets the key to the string given after processing options. Options include replacing substrings with configuration items that match *at the time of the SetString call*. This allows the abstraction of a static string based on the other config values given. E.g. 

cf.SetString("setup", "/path/to/myname/setup.json", config.Replace("name"))

This would check the value of the "name" key in cf and do a global replace. Multiple Replace options are processed in order. If "name" was "myname" at the time of the call then the resulting value is `/path/to/${config:name}/setup.json`

Existing expand options are left unchanged. All replacements are case sensitive.

func (*Config) Sub 

func (c *Config) Sub(key string) *Config

Sub returns a Config instance rooted at the key passed. If key does not exist then an empty config structure is returned, unlike viper which returns nil. It uses the mutex pointer from the caller so that locking of sub-config objects also applies to the original.

Note that viper.Sub() does NOT merge defaults

func (*Config) UnmarshalKey added in v1.7.2 

func (c *Config) UnmarshalKey(key string, rawVal interface{}, opts ...viper.DecoderConfigOption) error

type Credentials added in v1.5.0

	ClientSecret string `json:"client_secret,omitempty"`
	Token        string `json:"token,omitempty"`
	Renewal      string `json:"renewal,omitempty"`
}

Credentials can carry a number of different credential types. Add more as required. Eventually this will go into memguard.

type ExpandOptions added in v1.4.1 

type ExpandOptions func(*expandOptions)

ExpandOptions control the way configuration options undergo string expansion through the underlying ExpandString functions. ExpandOptions can be passed to any of the normal lookup functions that are provided to override viper versions, such as GetString.

e.g. 

s := config.GetString("config.value", ExternalLookups(false), LookupTable(configMap), Prefix("myconf", myFunc))

func Default added in v1.4.3 

func Default(value any) ExpandOptions

Default sets a default value to be returned if the resulting expansion of the whole config value is empty (after any optional trimming of leading and trailing spaces). This includes cases where external lookups fail or a configuration item is not found. If TrimSpace is false and the returned value consists wholly of whitespace then this is returned and not the default given here.

func Expressions added in v1.4.1 

func Expressions(yes bool) ExpandOptions

Expressions enables or disables the built-in expansion for expressions via the `github.com/maja42/goval` package. The default is false.

func ExternalLookups added in v1.4.1 

func ExternalLookups(yes bool) ExpandOptions

ExternalLookups enables or disables the built-in expansion options that fetch data from outside the program, such as URLs and file paths. The default is true.

func Initial added in v1.6.6 

func Initial(value any) ExpandOptions

Initial sets an initial default value to be used if the configuration item is empty (or nil) to start. This differs from Default() which supplies a value to use if the value if empty after expansion. The initial value, if used, is expanded as would any configuration value.

If config.NoExpand() is also used then this initial value is used as a secondary default - i.e. if config.Default() is empty.

func LookupTable added in v1.4.1 

func LookupTable(values ...map[string]string) ExpandOptions

LookupTable adds lookup maps, of name/value pairs, to the Expand functions. If there are no lookup tables defined then `${item}` is treated as an environment variable. When string expansion is done to a plain word, ie. without a prefix, then `${item}` is looked up in each map, in the order the LookupTable options are given, and first match, if any, wins. If there is no match in any of the lookup maps then a nil value is returned and environment variables are not checked.

func LookupTables deprecated added in v1.6.0 

func LookupTables(values []map[string]string) ExpandOptions

LookupTables sets the expansion lookup tables to the slice of maps passed as values. Any existing lookup tables are discarded.

Deprecated: Use the singular LookupTable with a variadic list of tables instead.

func NoDecode(n bool) ExpandOptions

NoDecode disables the expansion of encoded values.

func NoExpand added in v1.5.0 

func NoExpand() ExpandOptions

NoExpand overrides all other options except Default and returns the value (or the default) as-is with no expansion applied. This is to allow the normal functions and methods to be called but to receive the underlying configuration item, such as an encoded password.

func Prefix added in v1.4.1 

func Prefix(prefix string, fn func(*Config, string, bool) (string, error)) ExpandOptions

Prefix defines a custom mapping for the given prefix to an expand-like function. The prefix should not include the terminating ":". If the configuration prefix matches during expansion then the function is called with the config data and the contents of the expansion including the prefix (for URLs) but stripped of the opening `${` and closing `}`. A boolean parameter trims white space from the result if true.

func Replace added in v1.10.0 

func Replace(name string) ExpandOptions

Replace is used by config.Set* (except config.Set itself) functions to replace substrings with the formatted configuration item given as name with an equivalent expand string, where the value of the name key is only tested as Set time.

e.g. if ${home} is "/home/user" then: 

config.SetString("path", "/home/user/file.txt", config.Replace("home"))

results in path being set to "${home}/file.txt" for future expansion, as "home" may change

Replace can be used multiple times, each name being checked in order.

Expand strings in the value are never substituted.

name is not checked for self-referencing

func TrimPrefix added in v1.4.1 

func TrimPrefix() ExpandOptions

TrimPrefix enables the removal of the prefix from the string passed to expansion functions. If this is not set then URLs can be passed as-is since the prefix is part of the URL. If set then URLs would need the schema explicitly added after the prefix. Using this option allows standard function like strings.ToUpper to be used without additional wrappers.

func TrimSpace added in v1.4.3 

func TrimSpace(yes bool) ExpandOptions

TrimSpace enables the removal of leading and trailing spaces on all values in an expansion. The default is `true`. If a default value is given using the Default() then this is never trimmed.

type FileOptions func(*fileOptions)

FileOptions can be passed to the Load or Save functions to set values.

func AddDirs added in v1.6.0 

func AddDirs(paths ...string) FileOptions

func FromDir added in v1.6.0 

func FromDir(dir string) FileOptions

FromDir sets the only directory to search for the configuration files. It disables searching in the working directory, the user config directory and the system directory.

func Host added in v1.5.0 

func Host(r host.Host) FileOptions

Host sets the source/destination for the configuration file. It defaults to localhost

func IgnoreSystemDir 

func IgnoreSystemDir() FileOptions

IgnoreSystemDir tells Load() not to search in the system configuration directory. This only applies on UNIX-like systems and is normally `/etc` and a sub-directory of AppName.

func IgnoreUserConfDir 

func IgnoreUserConfDir() FileOptions

IgnoreUserConfDir tells Load not to search under the user config directory. The user configuration directory is as per os.UserConfDir

func IgnoreWorkingDir 

func IgnoreWorkingDir() FileOptions

func KeyDelimiter added in v1.5.0 

func KeyDelimiter(delimiter string) FileOptions

KeyDelimiter sets the delimiter for keys in the configuration loaded with Load. This can only be changed at the time of creation of the configuration object so will not apply if used with SetGlobal().

func MergeSettings added in v1.4.1 

func MergeSettings() FileOptions

MergeSettings change the default behaviour of Load which is to load the first configuration file found, instead loading each configuration file found and merging the settings together. Merging is done using viper.MergeConfigMap and should result in the last definition of each configuration item being used.

MergeSettings applies to both default and main settings, but separately, i.e. all defaults are first merged and applied then the main configuration files are merged and loaded.

func MustExist added in v1.5.0 

func MustExist() FileOptions

MustExist makes Load() return an error if a configuration file is not found. This does not apply to default configuration files.

func SetAppName 

func SetAppName(name string) FileOptions

SetAppName overrides to use of the Load `name` argument as the application name, `AppName`, which is used for sub-directories while `name` is used as the prefix for files in those directories.

For example, if Load is called like this: 

Load("myprogram", config.SetAppName("basename"))

Then one valid location of a configuration file would be: 

${HOME}/.config/basename/myprogram.yaml

func SetConfigFile 

func SetConfigFile(p string) FileOptions

SetConfigFile forces Load to load only the configuration at the given path. This path must include the file extension. Defaults are still loaded from all the normal directories unless [IgnoreDefaults] is also passed as an option.

If the argument is an empty string then the option is not used. This also means it can be called with a command line flag value which can default to an empty string

func SetConfigReader added in v1.9.2 

func SetConfigReader(in io.Reader) FileOptions

SetConfigReader sets Load to read the main configuration from an io.Reader in. The input is read until EOF or error.

The caller must close the reader on return.

func SetFileExtension added in v1.6.0 

func SetFileExtension(extension string) FileOptions

SetFileExtension sets the file extension and, by implication, the format for the configuration. If the type is not set and the configuration file loaded has an extension then that is used. This applies to both defaults and main configuration files (but not embedded defaults). The default is "json". Any leading "." is ignored.

func UseDefaults added in v1.4.1 

func UseDefaults(b bool) FileOptions

UseDefaults tells Load whether to load defaults or not. The default is true. Defaults are loaded from a file with the same name as the main on but with an extra `.defaults` suffix before the extension, i.e. for `config.yaml` the defaults file would be `config.defaults.yaml` but it is searched in all the directories and may be located elsewhere to the main configuration.

func UseGlobal 

func UseGlobal() FileOptions

UseGlobal tells Load to set values in the global configuration structure instead of creating a new one. The global configuration is then returned by Load.

func WatchConfig added in v1.10.0 

func WatchConfig(notify ...func(fsnotify.Event)) FileOptions

WatchConfig enables the underlying viper instance to watch the finally loaded config file. Does nothing if MergeSettings() is used and does no watch default files. Using this option is not concurrency safe on future calls to config methods, use carefully.

If a notify function is specified then this is passed to viper.OnConfigChange. Only the first notify function is used.

func WithDefaults added in v1.7.0 

func WithDefaults(defaults []byte, format string) FileOptions

WithDefaults takes a []byte slice and a format type to set configuration defaults. This can be used in conjunction with `embed` to set embedded default configuration values so that a program can function without a configuration file, e.g. 

//go:embed "defaults.yaml"
var defaults []byte
...
c, err := config.Load("appname", config.WithDefaults(defaults, "yaml"))

func WithEnvs added in v1.7.0 

func WithEnvs(prefix string, delimiter string) FileOptions
