    Reading strongly-typed values from umbracoSettings.config

    Hello,

    is there a way to access the settings information of Umbraco 8 umbracoSettings.config file in a strongly-typed way?

    For the task at hands, I need to get to the imaging->imageFileTypes value.

    Kind regards! Mikael

    Hi Mikael

    In Umbraco 8 can inject the IUmbracoSettingsSection type via dependency injection:

    using Umbraco.Core.Configuration.UmbracoSettings;

public class MyClass {

    private readonly IUmbracoSettingsSection _umbracoSettings;

    public MyClass(IUmbracoSettingsSection umbracoSettings) {
        _umbracoSettings = umbracoSettings;
    }

}

    Or alternatively via Current:

    @using Umbraco.Core.Composing
@using Umbraco.Core.Configuration.UmbracoSettings

@{

    IUmbracoSettingsSection umbracoSettings1 = Current.Configs.Settings();
    IUmbracoSettingsSection umbracoSettings2 = Current.Factory.GetInstance<IUmbracoSettingsSection>();

    IEnumerable<string> allowedTypes = umbracoSettings1.Content.ImageFileTypes;

    <h5>Allowed types:</h5>
    <pre>@string.Join(", ", allowedTypes)</pre>

}

    Also if you're looking to do the same in Umbraco 9, it can be done as:

    @using Microsoft.Extensions.Options
@using Umbraco.Cms.Core.Configuration.Models
@inject IOptions<ContentSettings> _contentSettings

@{

    string[] allowedTypes = _contentSettings.Value.Imaging.ImageFileTypes;

    <h5>Allowed types:</h5>
    <pre>@string.Join("\r\n", allowedTypes)</pre>

}
