TOML GLib

A small library to parse TOML.

Small example

Put this in a Vala file:

using Toml;

void main () {
    try {
        Element doc = new Parser.from_file ("test.toml").parse ();
        string name = doc["visitor"]["name"].as<string> ();
        print ("Hello, %s!\n", name);
    } catch (Error err) {
        print ("Error: %s\n", err.message);
    }
}

Then in test.toml, put:

[visitor]
name = "world"

Compile with:

valac --pkg toml-glib *.vala

You should get this:

Hello, world!
