# tomlc99
TOML in c99; v0.5.0 compliant.
# Usage
Please see the `toml.h` file for details. What follows is a simple example that
parses this config file:
```
[server]
   host = "www.example.com"
port = 80
```
For each config param, the code first extracts a raw value and then
convert it to a string or integer depending on context.
```
FILE* fp;
toml_table_t* conf;
toml_table_t* server;
const char* raw;
char* host;
int64_t port;
char errbuf[200];
/* open file and parse */
if (0 == (fp = fopen(FNAME, "r"))) {
return handle_error();
}
conf = toml_parse_file(fp, errbuf, sizeof(errbuf));
fclose(fp);
if (0 == conf) {
return handle_error();
}
/* locate the [server] table */
if (0 == (server = toml_table_in(conf, "server"))) {
return handle_error();
}
/* extract host config value */
if (0 == (raw = toml_raw_in(server, "host"))) {
return handle_error();
}
if (toml_rtos(raw, &host)) {
return handle_error();
}
/* extract port config value */
if (0 == (raw = toml_raw_in(server, "port"))) {
return handle_error();
}
if (toml_rtoi(raw, &port)) {
return handle_error();
}
/* done with conf */
toml_free(conf);
/* use host and port */
do_work(host, port);
/* clean up */
free(host);
```
# Building
A normal *make* suffices. Alternately, you can also simply include the
`toml.c` and `toml.h` files in your project.
# Testing
To test against the standard test set provided by BurntSushi/toml-test:
```
% make
% cd test1
% bash build.sh # do this once
% bash run.sh # this will run the test suite
