i'm using emqx v5 to pub,sub, connect, v.v.. Meanwhile, I've been developing my plugin and plugin template from this.

Normally, in emqx-plugin-template.erl, i declare my constant like this

enter image description here

and i can use it from all funtion in this file. But now i want to save them in pri/config.hocon and get them to use similarly. This is structure of plugin

enter image description here

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to get them out and how to declare them so I can use them in as many functions as before. Please guide me.

I try: hocon:load(file name) and maps:get(key, Config) but is is match to a file in emqx/_build/emqx/rel/emqx/config.hocon (this is server emqx)..ít's work but that's not what I want because the author of the template already has pri/config.hocon available and i just want to touch my plugin not eqmx server

There are three options

  1. Put the config somewhere outside of emqx release directory, and use absolute path in the hocon:load call
  2. Call code:priv_dir(emqx_plugin_messenger) to get the path of your app's priv directory
  3. Put the config in EMQX data/ directory, and call emqx:data_dir() to get it.
