Configuration Format

SpongeAPI offers support to serialize text directly to a Configurate configuration file through the use of the TypeToken class. Text objects are saved using the same node structure as the Text's JSON representation.

For information on how to use Configurate to create configuration files for your plugin, please refer to Configuring Plugins.

For example, the text «Hello World!», formatted with the color red and and underline would have the following HOCON representation:

{
    underlined=true
    color=red
    text="Hello, world!"
}

To save a Text object simply set the value of your desired node using the following code:

import com.google.common.reflect.TypeToken;
import ninja.leaping.configurate.ConfigurationNode;
import org.spongepowered.api.text.Text;
import org.spongepowered.api.text.format.TextColors;
import org.spongepowered.api.text.format.TextStyles;

ConfigurationNode node = loader.load();
Text text = Text.of(TextColors.RED, TextStyles.UNDERLINE, "Hello World!");
node.getNode("mytext").setValue(TypeToken.of(Text.class), text);
loader.save(node);

You can then load a Text object using the following code:

Text text = node.getNode("mytext").getValue(TypeToken.of(Text.class));

This strategy is not limited to HoconConfigurationLoader; any ConfigurationLoader will suffice.
