Scala reflection to access all public fields at runtime

In brief:

import scala.reflect.runtime.universe._

val a = new A
val rm = scala.reflect.runtime.currentMirror
val accessors = rm.classSymbol(a.getClass).toType.members.collect {
  case m: MethodSymbol if m.isGetter && m.isPublic => m 
}
val instanceMirror = rm.reflect(a)
for(acc <- accessors)
  println(s"$a: ${instanceMirror.reflectMethod(acc).apply()}")

You can you TypeTag to get an access:

scala> import scala.reflect.runtime.universe._
import scala.reflect.runtime.universe._

scala> class A {
     |   val x = 3
     |   val y = 4
     | }
defined class A

scala> class B extends A {
     |   val z = 5
     | }
defined class B

scala> typeOf[B]
res0: reflect.runtime.universe.Type = B

Now you have two options: members which shows all members (even inherited ones) and declarations (only defined in the current class), e.g:

scala> res0.declarations
res2: reflect.runtime.universe.MemberScope = SynchronizedOps(constructor B, value z, value z)

If you want to work with this field you need reflect them through InstanceMirror:

scala> val b = new B
b: B = B@6ebe10dd

scala> val currentMirror = runtimeMirror(getClass.getClassLoader)
.....

scala> val bMir = currentMirror.reflect(b)
bMir: reflect.runtime.universe.InstanceMirror = instance mirror for B@6ebe10dd

Now you just need to get a Symbol you need, e.g you want to get a value of z varible:

scala> val zt = typeOf[B].declaration("z": TermName).asMethod
zt: reflect.runtime.universe.MethodSymbol = value z

scala> bMir.reflectField(zt).get
res20: Any = 5
