ConfigMe More configuration file types?

I like using ConfigMe, but I hate the fact that I'm stuck using yml for everything. Do you think anytime in the future you'll add files types, like Java Properties, or JSON?

This is a great request! Do you have a use case and/or a preference? I guess java properties would be more interesting than json because it allows comments

Also as addendum I‘m currently refactoring the whole project so it might take a while until I‘m able to implement a new type. But ConfigMe is definitely structured to support formats other than YML.

Thanks for the kind words btw :)

I’m personally needing Java Properties for a project of mine, at the moment using my own Java Properties setup for this project, but also using ConfigMe for it.

I like the idea of Json, but i'm not sure of the use case of it for me, and also like you said would offer comments.

I am also interested in this ^-^

Recently I was told about Hocon, and I want to implement it in ConfigMe. I think we can split ConfigMe into modules, for example configme-core, configme-yaml, configme-json, configme-hocon etc. configme-core will be the basis, the rest - the subordinate. That is, the user can choose whether he needs yaml in his project, or he wants to use only json, or all together. As you have already noticed, ConfigMe will easily adapt to this behavior.

I can do this if you do not mind c:
