Install DaisyConfig

DaisyConfig is the typed YAML and config lifecycle layer in the Daisy ecosystem.

Use it when you want:

typed YAML config objects
reload-safe handles
managed file lifecycle and config_version
missing-key merge and ordered migrations
module bundles for settings.yml plus lang.yml
DaisySeries-backed value codecs
DaisyCore-friendly config-backed text sources

Requirements

Java 21
Kotlin 2.3.x
Paper 1.21.x

Gradle Kotlin DSL

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven("https://repo.papermc.io/repository/maven-public/")
    maven("https://jitpack.io")
}

dependencies {
    implementation("cat.daisy:config-all:0.2.0")
}

config-all is the normal install for real plugins because it already includes:

config-base
config-yaml
config-managed
config-modules
config-daisycore

Narrower installs

implementation("cat.daisy:config-base:0.2.0")
implementation("cat.daisy:config-yaml:0.2.0")
implementation("cat.daisy:config-managed:0.2.0")
implementation("cat.daisy:config-modules:0.2.0")
implementation("cat.daisy:config-daisycore:0.2.0")

Use narrower modules only when you know you want a smaller surface:

config-yaml for simple unmanaged file loading
config-managed when you need versioning and migration but not module conventions
config-modules when your plugin already uses modules/<category>/<module>/settings.yml

Next step

Build your first typed YAML config with First Config, then move to Managed YAML Files when file lifecycle becomes part of the problem.
