**koanf** (pronounced _conf_; a play on the Japanese _Koan_) is a library for reading configuration from different sources in different formats in Go applications. It is a cleaner, lighter [alternative to spf13/viper](#alternative-to-viper) with better abstractions and extensibility and fewer dependencies.
koanf comes with built in support for reading configuration from files, command line flags, and environment variables, and can parse JSON, YAML, TOML, and Hashicorp HCL.

### Concepts
- `koanf.Provider` is a generic interface that provides configuration, for example, from files, environment variables, HTTP sources, or anywhere. The configuration can either be raw bytes that a parser can parse, or it can be a nested map[string]interface{} that can be directly loaded.
- `koanf.Parser` is a generic interface that takes raw bytes, parses, and returns a nested map[string]interface{} representation. For example, JSON and YAML parsers.
- Once loaded into koanf, configuration are values queried by a delimited key path syntax. eg: `app.server.port`. Any delimiter can be chosen.
- Configuration from multiple sources can be loaded and merged into a koanf instance, for example, load from a file first and override certain values with flags from the command line.
With these two interface implementations, koanf can obtain a configuration from multiple sources and parse any format and make it available to an application.
### Reading config from files
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/json"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/yaml"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/file"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use "." as the key path delimiter. This can be "/" or any character.
var k = koanf.New(".")
func main() {
// Load JSON config.
if err := k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.json"), json.Parser()); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
// Load YAML config and merge into the previously loaded config (because we can).
k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.yaml"), yaml.Parser())
fmt.Println("parent's name is = ", k.String("parent1.name"))
fmt.Println("parent's ID is = ", k.Int("parent1.id"))
}
```
### Watching files for changes
The `koanf.Provider` interface has a `Watch(cb)` method that asks a provider
to watch for changes and trigger the given callback that can live reload the
configuration.
Currently, `file.Provider` supports this.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/json"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/yaml"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/file"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use "." as the key path delimiter. This can be "/" or any character.
var k = koanf.New(".")
func main() {
// Load JSON config.
f := file.Provider("mock/mock.json")
if err := k.Load(f, json.Parser()); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
// Load YAML config and merge into the previously loaded config (because we can).
k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.yaml"), yaml.Parser())
fmt.Println("parent's name is = ", k.String("parent1.name"))
fmt.Println("parent's ID is = ", k.Int("parent1.id"))
// Watch the file and get a callback on change. The callback can do whatever,
// like re-load the configuration.
// File provider always returns a nil `event`.
f.Watch(func(event interface{}, err error) {
if err != nil {
log.Printf("watch error: %v", err)
return
}
log.Println("config changed. Reloading ...")
k.Load(f, json.Parser())
k.Print()
})
// Block forever (and manually make a change to mock/mock.json) to
// reload the config.
log.Println("waiting forever. Try making a change to mock/mock.json to live reload")
<-make(chan bool)
}
```
### Reading from command line
The following example shows the use of `posflag.Provider`, a wrapper over [spf13/pflag](/spf13/pflag) library, an advanced commandline lib. For Go's built in `flag` package, use `basicflag.Provider`.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"os"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/toml"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/file"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/posflag"
flag "github.com/spf13/pflag"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use "." as the key path delimiter. This can be "/" or any character.
var k = koanf.New(".")
func main() {
// Use the POSIX compliant pflag lib instead of Go's flag lib.
f := flag.NewFlagSet("config", flag.ContinueOnError)
f.Usage = func() {
fmt.Println(f.FlagUsages())
os.Exit(0)
}
// Path to one or more config files to load into koanf along with some config params.
f.StringSlice("conf", []string{"mock/mock.toml"}, "path to one or more .toml config files")
f.String("time", "2020-01-01", "a time string")
f.String("type", "xxx", "type of the app")
f.Parse(os.Args[1:])
// Load the config files provided in the commandline.
cFiles, _ := f.GetStringSlice("conf")
for _, c := range cFiles {
if err := k.Load(file.Provider(c), toml.Parser()); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading file: %v", err)
}
}
// "time" and "type" may have been loaded from the config file, but
// they can still be overridden with the values from the command line.
// The bundled posflag.Provider takes a flagset from the spf13/pflag lib.
// Passing the Koanf instance to posflag helps it deal with default command
// line flag values that are not present in conf maps from previously loaded
// providers.
if err := k.Load(posflag.Provider(f, ".", k), nil); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
fmt.Println("time is = ", k.String("time"))
}
```
### Reading environment variables
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"strings"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/json"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/env"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/file"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use . as the key path delimiter. This can be / or anything.
var k = koanf.New(".")
func main() {
// Load JSON config.
if err := k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.json"), json.Parser()); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
// Load environment variables and merge into the loaded config.
// "MYVAR" is the prefix to filter the env vars by.
// "." is the delimiter used to represent the key hierarchy in env vars.
// The (optional, or can be nil) function can be used to transform
// the env var names, for instance, to lowercase them.
//
// For example, env vars: MYVAR_TYPE and MYVAR_PARENT1_CHILD1_NAME
// will be merged into the "type" and the nested "parent1.child1.name"
// keys in the config file here as we lowercase the key,
// replace `_` with `.` and strip the MYVAR_ prefix so that
// only "parent1.child1.name" remains.
k.Load(env.Provider("MYVAR_", ".", func(s string) string {
return strings.Replace(strings.ToLower(
strings.TrimPrefix(s, "MYVAR_")), "_", ".", -1)
}), nil)
fmt.Println("name is = ", k.String("parent1.child1.name"))
}
```
### Reading from an S3 bucket
```go
// Load JSON config from s3.
if err := k.Load(s3.Provider(s3.Config{
AccessKey: os.Getenv("AWS_S3_ACCESS_KEY"),
SecretKey: os.Getenv("AWS_S3_SECRET_KEY"),
Region: os.Getenv("AWS_S3_REGION"),
Bucket: os.Getenv("AWS_S3_BUCKET"),
ObjectKey: "dir/config.json",
}), json.Parser()); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
```
### Reading raw bytes
The bundled `rawbytes` Provider can be used to read arbitrary bytes from a source, like a database or an HTTP call.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/json"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/rawbytes"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use . as the key path delimiter. This can be / or anything.
var k = koanf.New(".")
func main() {
b := []byte(`{"type": "rawbytes", "parent1": {"child1": {"type": "rawbytes"}}}`)
k.Load(rawbytes.Provider(b), json.Parser())
fmt.Println("type is = ", k.String("parent1.child1.type"))
}
```
### Unmarshalling and marshalling
`Parser`s can be used to unmarshal and scan the values in a Koanf instance into a struct based on the field tags, and to marshal a Koanf instance back into serialized bytes, for example, back to JSON or YAML, to write back to files.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/json"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/file"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use . as the key path delimiter. This can be / or anything.
var (
k = koanf.New(".")
parser = json.Parser()
)
func main() {
// Load JSON config.
if err := k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.json"), parser); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
// Structure to unmarshal nested conf to.
type childStruct struct {
Name string `koanf:"name"`
Type string `koanf:"type"`
Empty map[string]string `koanf:"empty"`
GrandChild struct {
Ids []int `koanf:"ids"`
On bool `koanf:"on"`
} `koanf:"grandchild1"`
}
var out childStruct
// Quick unmarshal.
k.Unmarshal("parent1.child1", &out)
fmt.Println(out)
// Unmarshal with advanced config.
out = childStruct{}
k.UnmarshalWithConf("parent1.child1", &out, koanf.UnmarshalConf{Tag: "koanf"})
fmt.Println(out)
// Marshal the instance back to JSON.
// The paser instance can be anything, eg: json.Paser(), yaml.Parser() etc.
b, _ := k.Marshal(parser)
fmt.Println(string(b))
}
```
### Unmarshalling with flat paths
Sometimes it is necessary to unmarshal an assortment of keys from various nested structures into a flat target structure. This is possible with the `UnmarshalConf.FlatPaths` flag.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/json"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/file"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use . as the key path delimiter. This can be / or anything.
var k = koanf.New(".")
func main() {
// Load JSON config.
if err := k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.json"), json.Parser()); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
type rootFlat struct {
Type string `koanf:"type"`
Empty map[string]string `koanf:"empty"`
Parent1Name string `koanf:"parent1.name"`
Parent1ID int `koanf:"parent1.id"`
Parent1Child1Name string `koanf:"parent1.child1.name"`
Parent1Child1Type string `koanf:"parent1.child1.type"`
Parent1Child1Empty map[string]string `koanf:"parent1.child1.empty"`
Parent1Child1Grandchild1IDs []int `koanf:"parent1.child1.grandchild1.ids"`
Parent1Child1Grandchild1On bool `koanf:"parent1.child1.grandchild1.on"`
}
// Unmarshal the whole root with FlatPaths: True.
var o1 rootFlat
k.UnmarshalWithConf("", &o1, koanf.UnmarshalConf{Tag: "koanf", FlatPaths: true})
fmt.Println(o1)
// Unmarshal a child structure of "parent1".
type subFlat struct {
Name string `koanf:"name"`
ID int `koanf:"id"`
Child1Name string `koanf:"child1.name"`
Child1Type string `koanf:"child1.type"`
Child1Empty map[string]string `koanf:"child1.empty"`
Child1Grandchild1IDs []int `koanf:"child1.grandchild1.ids"`
Child1Grandchild1On bool `koanf:"child1.grandchild1.on"`
}
var o2 subFlat
k.UnmarshalWithConf("parent1", &o2, koanf.UnmarshalConf{Tag: "koanf", FlatPaths: true})
fmt.Println(o2)
}
```
### Marshalling and writing config
It is possible to marshal and serialize the conf map into TOML, YAML etc.
### Setting default values.
koanf does not provide any special functions to set default values but uses the Provider interface to enable it.
#### From a map
The bundled `confmap` provider takes a `map[string]interface{}` that can be loaded into a koanf instance.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/confmap"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/file"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/json"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/parsers/yaml"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use "." as the key path delimiter. This can be "/" or any character.
var k = koanf.New(".")
func main() {
// Load default values using the confmap provider.
// We provide a flat map with the "." delimiter.
// A nested map can be loaded by setting the delimiter to an empty string "".
k.Load(confmap.Provider(map[string]interface{}{
"parent1.name": "Default Name",
"parent3.name": "New name here",
}, "."), nil)
// Load JSON config on top of the default values.
if err := k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.json"), json.Parser()); err != nil {
log.Fatalf("error loading config: %v", err)
}
// Load YAML config and merge into the previously loaded config (because we can).
k.Load(file.Provider("mock/mock.yaml"), yaml.Parser())
fmt.Println("parent's name is = ", k.String("parent1.name"))
fmt.Println("parent's ID is = ", k.Int("parent1.id"))
}
```
#### From a struct
The bundled `structs` provider can be used to read data from a struct to load into a koanf instance.
```go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"github.com/knadh/koanf"
"github.com/knadh/koanf/providers/structs"
)
// Global koanf instance. Use "." as the key path delimiter. This can be "/" or any character.
var k = koanf.New(".")
type parentStruct struct {
Name string `koanf:"name"`
ID int `koanf:"id"`
Child1 childStruct `koanf:"child1"`
}
type childStruct struct {
Name string `koanf:"name"`
Type string `koanf:"type"`
Empty map[string]string `koanf:"empty"`
Grandchild1 grandchildStruct `koanf:"grandchild1"`
}
type grandchildStruct struct {
Ids []int `koanf:"ids"`
On bool `koanf:"on"`
}
type sampleStruct struct {
Type string `koanf:"type"`
Empty map[string]string `koanf:"empty"`
Parent1 parentStruct `koanf:"parent1"`
}
func main() {
// Load default values using the structs provider.
// We provide a struct along with the struct tag `koanf` to the
// provider.
k.Load(structs.Provider(sampleStruct{
Type: "json",
Empty: make(map[string]string),
Parent1: parentStruct{
Name: "parent1",
ID: 1234,
Child1: childStruct{
Name: "child1",
Type: "json",
Empty: make(map[string]string),
Grandchild1: grandchildStruct{
Ids: []int{1, 2, 3},
On: true,
},
},
},
}, "koanf"), nil)
fmt.Printf("name is = `%s`\n", k.String("parent1.child1.name"))
}
```
### Order of merge and key case senstivity
- Config keys are case-sensitive in koanf. For example, `app.server.port` and `APP.SERVER.port` are not the same.
- koanf does not impose any ordering on loading config from various providers. Every successive `Load()` or `Load()` merges new config into existing config. That means it is possible to load environment variables first, then files on top of it, and then command line variables on top of it, or any such order.
### Custom Providers and Parsers
A Provider can provide a nested map[string]interface{} config that can be loaded into koanf with `koanf.Load()` or raw bytes that can be parsed with a Parser (loaded using `koanf.Load()`.
Writing Providers and Parsers are easy. See the bundled implementations in the `providers` and `parses` directory.
## API
### Bundled providers
| Package | Provider | Description |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| providers/file | `file.Provider(filepath string)` | Reads a file and returns the raw bytes to be parsed. |

### Alternative to viper
koanf is a lightweight alternative to the popular [spf13/viper](https://github.com/spf13/viper). It does not aim to do everything viper does (such as mutating config maps and writing them back to files), but provides simpler primitives for reading and accessing configuration. It was written as a result of multiple stumbling blocks encountered with some of viper's fundamental flaws.
- viper breaks JSON, YAML, TOML, HCL language specs by [forcibly lowercasing keys](https://github.com/spf13/viper/pull/635).
- Significantly bloats [build sizes](https://github.com/knadh/koanf/wiki/Comparison-with-spf13-viper).
- Tightly couples config parsing with file extensions.
- Has poor semantics and abstractions. Commandline, env, file etc. and various parses are hardcoded in the core. There are no primitives that can be extended.
- Pulls a large number of [third party dependencies](https://github.com/spf13/viper/issues/707) into the core package. For instance, even if you do not use YAML or flags, the dependencies are still pulled as a result of the coupling.
- Imposes arbitrary ordering conventions (eg: flag -> env -> config etc.)
- `Get()` returns references to slices and maps. Mutations made outside change the underlying values inside the conf map.
- Does non-idiomatic things such as [throwing away O(1) on flat maps](https://github.com/spf13/viper/blob/3b4aca75714a37276c4b1883630bd98c02498b73/viper.go#L1524).
- There are a large number of [open issues](https://github.com/spf13/viper/issues).
