Redeon.SuperSiteEngineCore.Web.Eltheon.Core.ConfigFiles

Overview

This package manages hierarchical configuration for Eltheon. It contains base config file abstractions, serializers, discovery helpers, and the extension methods used by GlobalConfig to load strongly typed configuration objects from disk.

Capabilities

• BaseConfigFile<T> handles JSON persistence (with polymorphic support) and path management using GlobalConfig.
• ConfigsFile keeps a list of discovered IConfig implementations. GlobalConfig.Configs() bootstraps this file and scans all loaded assemblies for classes implementing IConfig.
• Extension methods like GlobalConfig.GetConfig<T>() allow any feature to fetch its config payload without knowing the storage layout.

Usage

1. Ensure GlobalConfig.Initialize(path) has been invoked so config directories exist.
2. Create a class implementing IConfig and place it in any loaded assembly.
3. Call GlobalConfig.Instance.Configs().Load() (or the provided extensions) to populate the config list, then query it via GetConfig<T>().

Notes

• The package uses Newtonsoft.Json with TypeNameHandling.Auto to persist polymorphic trigger/config types. Do not remove type metadata unless you control all config consumers.
• Because the extension scans every loaded assembly, keep config classes lightweight to avoid large static initialization costs at startup.
