Welcome to the Config System repository! This lightweight configuration system is designed to provide a simple and flexible way to manage configuration settings for your applications. It allows you to create, load, modify, delete and save configuration files with ease.
To use the Config System in your project, follow these steps:
Include the Include folder in your project:
#include "Include/config.h"
There is already a instance created inside config.h which you can access as settings.
if (!settings.exists("Default.conf")) settings.save("Default.conf"); settings.load("Default.conf");
std::cout << "Float: " << settings.a_float_value << std::endl;To edit the config, You have to pass through the value as 'pointer' For example in my Main.cpp:
modify_struct(&settings.test_struct);// This won't work as intended settings.a_float_value = 1337.f; std::cout << "Attempting to edit the value wrong" << std::endl; std::cout << "Float: " << settings.a_float_value << std::endl; std::cout << "Value remains the same, as it's not edited through a pointer." << std::endl;
// Use Set function to edit the value settings.Set(&settings.a_float_value, 1337.f); std::cout << "Now it will have a new value" << std::endl; std::cout << "Float: " << settings.a_float_value << std::endl;
void Test(float* value) { *value = 69.f; } // Use a custom function to edit the value Test(&settings.a_float_value); std::cout << "Float: " << settings.a_float_value << std::endl;
After making changes, save the configuration:
// Save the modified config settings.save("Default.conf");
