# 📄 Configuration Files (\`KynosFile\`)

## 📁 Custom Configurations

Managing unique, non-standard YAML files within secondary plugins can lead to repetitive boilerplate. KynosLib resolves this via the highly versatile **`KynosFile`** utility wrapper.

```java
// Initialize or load a custom data file inside your plugin directory 
//if you do for example ("configuration/settings.yml") the plugin automatically create the folder
KynosFile dataFile = new KynosFile(plugin, "data.yml");

// Modify and update configuration nodes
dataFile.getConfig().set("players.uuid_here.points", 500);

// Flush data safely to the disk
dataFile.save();

// Perform automated batch reloads
dataFile.saveAndReload();
```
