topl

JavaScript (Node.js and browser) meets TOML.

Supports most recent TOML spec (v0.2.0).

What?

It's Tom's Obvious, Minimal Language.

Why?

Why not?

Okay, but why in Node.js and the browser?

Because it's time to have a simple config language that works across all platforms, not just one.

How to install

npm install topl

How to use

Node.js

Bootstrap it

./script/bootstrap

Require it

var topl = require('topl');

Parse it

require('fs').readFile('<path to toml file>', function(err, data) {
  var parsedObject = topl.parse(data);

  console.log(parsedObject);
});

Browser

Load it

<script src="topl.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Parse it

topl.parse('hello = "world"');

Tests

Simply run the helper script:

./script/test

You can also run the examples in test/fixtures through topl with:

cake test

Want to see the output as a string? Go for it:

cake -s test

topl also supports running the toml-test test suite. Pass test/toml-test.js to toml-test to run it:

export GOPATH=$HOME/go
go get github.com/BurntSushi/toml-test
~/go/bin/toml-test ./test/toml-test.js

Build

You can compile the CoffeeScript source into the JavaScript files in lib by running:

cake build
