EasyConfig is a Java library designed to simplify configuration file handling using JSON files.

• Simple Configuration Handling: EasyConfig provides straightforward methods to manage JSON-based configuration files.
• Flexible Usage: Easily set, get, and modify configuration options within your Java application.
• Customizable Structure: Allows nesting configurations within parent keys for organized data storage.

You will find all the dependencies in the pom.xml file.

To use EasyConfig in your Java project, follow these steps:

1. Download: Clone or download the EasyConfig repository from GitHub.
2. Include Library: Add the EasyConfig library to your Java project's build path.

1. Initialize EasyConfig:

   // Example initialization
   Config config = new Config("path/to/config/folder", "config.json");

2. Set Configuration Values:

    // Set a value directly
    config.put("key", "value");
    // Set a value under a parent key
    config.putInParent("parentKey", "key", "value");

3. Retrieve Configuration Values:

    // Get a value by key
    Object value = config.get("key");
    // Get a value from under a parent key
    Object parentValue = config.getFromParent("parentKey", "key");

4. Modify and Save Configuration

   // Get a value by key
   Object value = config.get("key");
   // Get a value from under a parent key
   Object parentValue = config.getFromParent("parentKey", "key");

{
 "version": "1.0.0",

 "client": {
   "author": "NilsJanosch",
   "admin": true,
   "age": 15
 }
}

This JSON structure demonstrates the usage of put() and putInParent() methods in EasyConfig:

put(): Used to directly set a key-value pair in the configuration. Here, the "version" key is set to "1.0.0".

putInParent(): This method is utilized to nest values under a parent key. In this case, within the "client" object, three attributes are added:

"author": Holds the value "NilsJanosch".

"admin": Represents a boolean value, true.

"age": Stores an integer value, 15.

These methods allow easy manipulation and organization of configuration data within the JSON file using the EasyConfig library.
