A TOML language implementation in Haxe

Haxetoml

A Haxe implementation of TOML v0.1.0 language.

Install

haxelib install haxetoml

Usage

Given foo.toml:

[foo]
a = 1

[foo.bar]
b = ["2", "3"]

You can parse it with:

import sys.io.File;

var toml = File.getContent('foo.toml');
var parser = new haxetoml.TomlParser();

var parsed = parser.parse(toml);

parsed.foo; // => 1
parsed.foo.bar[1]; // => "3"

There are also some shortcut methods:

var fileContent = File.getContent('foo.toml');
var parsed = haxetoml.TomlParser.parseString(fileContent);

// or this shortcut, available on neko, cpp and php:
var parsed = haxetoml.TomlParser.parseFile('foo.toml');

Manually Test

Compile the test program first:

$ haxe cli_test.hxml

Run it:

# You can replace 'simple' with 'harder', 'empty' or whatever file name in resources/test_files
# C++
cli_test/bin/cpp/ParserTest simple
# Neko
neko cli_test/bin/ParserTest.n simple

To-Do

• Set default value
• Compile-time parsing with marco
• Stringify

haxetoml's Issues

Seems like 'false' is an invalid token

I got this error when I tried to assign a bool to false:

Line 2 Character 1: Invalid Token 'false' at haxetoml::TomlParser/InvalidToken()[\source\lib\toml\src\haxetoml\TomlParser.hx:337]

Quotation marks don't get stripped from strings

The beginning and end quotes should be stripped from strings.

Not handling windows CR + LF line endings - only works with LF

Not sure exactly what all of this means, but changing "File -> Line Ends -> LF" on my FlashDevelop was the only way to get this working on windows.

No useful error either, just crash.

Cannot have a tab on its own line

Having a tab (and I imagine a space as well) on its own line causes parser to fail.
