otter-config-types defines defaulted application schemas without opening services or drawing UI. Import an application leaf module, for example otter_config_types.bar or otter_config_types.term. Colors come from otter_geo.color. Text fields use otter_conf.text.Text; configs containing owned text have deinit(). Plain numeric/color-only configs remain copyable values. otter_config_types.fields exposes is_known_field, field_needs_quoting, and get_enum_field_names for editors.

Lua schema access

The separate otter_config_types_lua package exposes otter.config.schema, not otter.config. It requires no capability because it performs no I/O.
  • apps() lists the 22 schema names.
  • file(app) returns the config file name or greeter’s system path.
  • defaults(app) returns a nested defaults table.
  • parse(app, text) returns the typed table or nil, error_name.
  • field(app, key) returns quoting and enum metadata, or nil.
File reads, watches, and typed writes belong to otter_conf_lua.
