Beef-Toml

A simple TOML serializer/deserializer for the Beef programming language

Usage

Parsing a TOML document string

using JetFistGames.Toml;

// ...

let result = TomlSerializer.Read(tomlDocumentString);

if (result case .Err(let err))
{
    Console.WriteLine(scope String()..AppendF("TOML parse failed: {0}", err));
}
else if (result case .Ok(let doc))
{
    Console.WriteLine(doc["table"]["key"].GetString().Value);
    
    // index array nodes
    let tomlArray = doc["table"]["arrayKey"].GetArray().Value;
    for(int i = 0; i < tomlArray.Count; i++)
    {
      Console.WriteLine(tomlArray[i].GetInt().Value);
    }

    delete doc; // remember to delete the allocated TOML document tree when you're finished!
}

Serializing a TOML document to string

using JetFistGames.Toml;

// ...

var doc = new TomlTableNode();
doc.AddChild<TomlValueNode>("myKey").SetString("Hello, world!");
doc.AddChild<TomlArrayNode>("myArray").AddChild<TomlValueNode>().SetInt(100);

var docStr = scope String();
TomlSerializer.Write(doc, docStr);

// myKey = "Hello, world!";
// myArray = [ 100 ]

delete doc;

TomlNode Get/set value types

TomlNode.GetString();   // Result<String>
TomlNode.GetInt();      // Result<int>
TomlNode.GetFloat();    // Result<float>
TomlNode.GetBool();     // Result<bool>
TomlNode.GetDatetime(); // Result<DateTime>
TomlNode.GetTable();    // Result<TomlTableNode>
TomlNode.GetArray();    // Result<TomlArrayNode>

TomlValueNode.SetString( value );
TomlValueNode.SetInt( value );
TomlValueNode.SetFloat( value );
TomlValueNode.SetBool( value );
TomlValueNode.SetDatetime( value );

Notes

At the moment it only supports querying a document tree, but reflection-based automatic serialization/deserialization is planned (I'd like to eventually allow for something like TomlSerializer.Deserialize<MyType>( inTomlString, outMyObject ) and TomlSerializer.Serialize( inMyObject, outTomlString ).

Beef-Toml is currently developed and tested against Beef nightly build v0.42.5 (05/30/2020). There is a bug in the publicly available release 0.42.4 which prevents Beef-Toml from compiling, this has been fixed in the nightly builds.
