A command-line Java application for managing Java properties files.

Prop Util

This project is a command-line Java application for managing Java properties files, with no external dependencies.

Example usage

Given a properties file with the following content:

foo.bim.bam = bar
dooh = mybad

the following command:

java -jar sn-prop-util.jar modify --file foo.properties --set foo=bar --delete dooh --add foo.bim.bam=blah

would modify the file so it contains the following content:

foo.bim.bam = bar
foo = bar

The --set option unconditionally sets a property value (overwriting any existing value), the --delete option deletes a property value, and the --add option only adds a property if that property does not already exist.
