Setup PhantomJS from JSON using WebDriver in Java

Question

When running plain PhantomJS a config.json can be set which sets some options. How I can setup PhantomJS with JSON file when using the Selenium WebDriver?

I have this:

DesiredCapabilities caps = new DesiredCapabilities();
caps.setJavascriptEnabled(true);
caps.setCapability("takesScreenshot", false);
caps.setCapability(
        PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_EXECUTABLE_PATH_PROPERTY,
         "/usr/local/bin/phantomjs");
driver = new PhantomJSDriver(caps);

i see here:phantomjs.org/api/command-line.html that i can configure phantomjs driver with json..but i not understand how i can this in java — DevOps85

In plain PhantomJS a --config=config.json commandline option can be specified when running it as seen here. The same can be specified when invoking PhantomJS through the selenium webdriver by passing this commandline option through the capabilities:

ArrayList<String> cliArgsCap = new ArrayList<String>();
cliArgsCap.add("--config=config.json");
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.phantomjs();
capabilities.setCapability(
    PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_CLI_ARGS, cliArgsCap);
capabilities.setCapability("takesScreenshot", false);
capabilities.setCapability(
    PhantomJSDriverService.PHANTOMJS_EXECUTABLE_PATH_PROPERTY,
     "/usr/local/bin/phantomjs");
WebDriver driver = new PhantomJSDriver(capabilities);

This is adapted from my answer here.
