Let's enumerate some key features of this library:

  • Support for Various Sources — It can read flat or nested configurations. Thanks to IndexedFlat.
  • Automatic Document Generation — It can auto-generate documentation of configurations.
  • Automatic Derivation — It has built-in support for automatic derivation of readers and writers for case classes and sealed traits.
  • Type-level Constraints and Automatic Validation — because it supports Refined types, we can write type-level predicates which constrain the set of values described for data types.
  • Descriptive Errors — It accumulates all errors and reports all of them to the user rather than failing fast.
  • Integrations — Integrations with a variety of libraries

Installation​

In order to use this library, we need to add the following line in our build.sbt file:

libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-config" % "<version>"

Quick Start

Let's add these four lines to our build.sbt file as we are using these modules in our examples:

libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-config"          % "<version>"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-config-magnolia" % "<version>"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-config-typesafe" % "<version>"
libraryDependencies += "dev.zio" %% "zio-config-refined"  % "<version>"

There are many examples in here
