05/31/2019, 2:20 PMJackson and pureconfig are unrelated
sam
05/31/2019, 2:20 PMLooking for something like the pureconfig library from scala

05/31/2019, 2:22 PMLooking at the pureconfig library, it's defining your config domain in code and then auto-unmarshalling your config file into those domain objects...

05/31/2019, 2:22 PMYes but more as well

05/31/2019, 2:24 PMKotlin has been "pretty close but not quite there yet" for a couple years now, and oh does it bug the everloving crap out of me.

sam
05/31/2019, 2:25 PMYeah it's got real potential though once those little things are ironed out
sam
05/31/2019, 2:25 PMPattern matching pless

Derek Berner
05/31/2019, 2:26 PMYeah and HKTs
Derek Berner
05/31/2019, 2:26 PM(At least I have Arrow for HKTs)

sam
05/31/2019, 2:26 PMProbably harder and less likely
