|

## Status
|
|
|
|
Proposed
|
|
|
|
References [5. Deprecate setters in favor of functional options during initialization](0005-deprecate-setters-in-favor-of-functional-options-during-initialization.md)
|
|
|
|
## Context
|
|
|
|
With the deprecation of setters in favor of functional options, it becomes almost impossible to get away with instantiating Viper.
|
|
In addition to that, people should be discouraged from accessing a global Viper instance.
|
|
|
|
## Decision
|
|
|
|
Deprecate the global Viper instance and the global access functions.
|
|
|
|
## Consequences
|
|
|
|
People will still be able to create a global instance of their own,
|
|
but instantiating a custom Viper instance will become the primary solution for using Viper.
