how to load the config with substitution details

[srikanth-exabeam]

we have the config below format

LocationDataTemplate = {
    sample-data-template = {
        City = Mumbai
        Country = India
    }
}

HotelDetails = [
{
    Name = "The Taj Mahal Palace"
    Address = "Colaba"
},

    ${LocationDataTemplate.sample-data-template}{
        Name = "Four Seasons Hotel"
        Address = "Worli"
    }
]

In HotelDetails we are using substitution as ${LocationDataTemplate.sample-data-template}. While loading this config data of 'HotelDetails' we want to load with substitution details intact as we want to maintain reference of substitution.

We tried multiple scenarios but did not got the way to load details with substitutions. Please share sample code for this scenario.

The documentation is pretty good but it doesn't seem you can do what you are asking - https://github.com/lightbend/config#uses-of-substitutions

@ekrich the link you shared is for uses of substitutions, but we need raw details of substitutions. ConfigConcatenation.java has the 'pieces' property to share substitution and config details separately but we can't use 'ConfigConcatenation' class since it has default scoped.

maybe ConfigResolver can help?

Otherwise the unfinished ConfigDocument api would be the needed thing to use the library as a parser.
