getConfigInstance

Loads and returns the plugin's configuration as an instance of type C.

This extension function is a convenient shorthand for calling Configs.load with this plugin instance. It automatically loads the "config.yml" file from the plugin's data folder and maps it to the specified configuration class type using reflection.

The configuration class C should be a data class with properties matching the structure of the YAML file. Default values in the data class constructor will be used for any missing fields in the config.
