Base Config

gistfile1.txt

Not sure I understand the statement.

The type `T` is used to somehow load the configuration in some way?

    class UConfigurableBase
    {
        public:
            virtual json GetDefaultConfig()                         = 0;            
            bool Validate(const json& source );
    }

    bool UConfigurable<T>::Validate( const json& source )
    {
        json patch = json::diff( source, this->GetDefaultConfig() );
        for( auto it = patch.begin(); it != patch.end(); ++it )
        {
            if( it->at("op") == "replace" )
            {
                if( not (it->at("value").is_null())  {
                    return false;
                }
            }
            else {
                return false;
            }
        }
        return return true;
    }


    template <typename T>
    class UConfigurable: public UConfigurableBase
    {
        public :
            UConfigurable() {};
            virtual ~UConfigurable() {};

            virtual void WriteConfig( const nlohmann::json &config ) = 0;

            static json GetDefaultConfig() { return fDefaultConfig; }
    };


    void WriteConfigToFile( const json& j, const std::string& path );

    json ReadConfigFromFile( const std::string& path );
