How do I access properties from application.conf from a non-Ktor object class?

Maybe you can recover them at initial stage, create a config class and inject that class wherever you need it. Does it sound like a good option?

import com.typesafe.config.ConfigFactory
...
config = ConfigFactory.load()

Hi @aleksey.tomin
Is there an easy way to disconnect from ConfigFactory to test later your code (is it an interface)? Is Ktor providing with a way to mock that config? Static calls are not that good when talking about testing.

You can create application.conf in test directory

Ok, that could work as well. Pointing to an environment can be done using the config recovered, so all the test scenarios can be recreated after.
