class FilesystemConfiguration

Library: Util
Package: Configuration
Header: Poco/Util/FilesystemConfiguration.h

Description

An implementation of AbstractConfiguration that stores configuration data in a directory hierarchy in the filesystem.

Every period-separated part of a property name is represented as a directory in the filesystem, relative to the base directory. Values are stored in files named "data".

All changes to properties are immediately persisted in the filesystem.

For example, a configuration consisting of the properties

logging.loggers.root.channel.class = ConsoleChannel
logging.loggers.app.name = Application
logging.loggers.app.channel = c1
logging.formatters.f1.class = PatternFormatter
logging.formatters.f1.pattern = [%p] %t

is stored in the filesystem as follows:

logging/
        loggers/
                root/
                     channel/
                             class/
                                   data ("ConsoleChannel")
                app/
                    name/
                         data ("Application")
                    channel/
                            data ("c1")
        formatters/
                   f1/
                      class/
                            data ("PatternFormatter")
                      pattern/
                              data ("[%p] %t")
