A common C# class to manipulate xml, ini and json config files with unified interfaces.

• Wrapped the difference among xml, ini and json, you can access the config file without the consideration of format.
• Provide XPath as default locating method.
• Saving file will not change the original format.

Recommend nuget package

Install-Package UnifiedConfig

OR

1. compile the class library and add reference of the dlls including the "UnifiedConfig.dll" to your project.
2. add using statement to your namespaces.
3. you can call the functions by using the following code or just read the test class.

ConfigManager config = new ConfigManager("test.ini");
Assert.Equal("5", config[@"//Default/Interval"]);

alternatively, you can directly start a project from the solution. By adding a new project into the solution, you can easily make use of the class. A unittest project is provided.

Issues and PRs are welcomed.

• Support for json
• Nuget package
• Auto-inference the type of config file without extension detection
• Support returning more types other than string (via ToObject method)
• Support of IEnumerable for sophisticated query
• Support for int indexer is removed since the xpath supported already
• Ready to go template project
• Case-sensitive swtich for path matching
