Tomlex

A TOML parser for elixir.

Getting Started

You can read all about the TOML markup language in the official github repo.

Requirements

• Elixir v1.0.0+

Usage

Add tomlex as a dependency in your mix.exs file.

defp deps do
  [{:tomlex, ">= 0.0.0"}]
end

Alternatively you can get the edge version.

defp deps do
  [{:tomlex, git: "https://github.com/zamith/tomlex.git"}]
end

After you're done, run mix deps.get in your shell to fetch the dependencies.

Tomlex gets a string and parses it into an elixir Map using the load function.

defmodule YourApp do
  def your_function do
    parsed_file = File.read!("path/to/file.toml") |> Tomlex.load
  end
end

Notice: Do not use different data types in the same array. Tomlex allows it for now, but will disallow it in the future, as per the TOML specs.
