`asciigoat.org/ini` is a simple Go library that very loosly parses
|
|
|
|
|
[`INI`-style][wikipedia-dosini] documents allowing the implementation
|
|
|
|
|
of stricter parsers of similar form.

## Parser
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
[`parser.Parser`][godoc-parser-parser] uses
|
|
|
|
|
[`asciigoat`'s lexer][godoc-lexer] to process an `INI`-style document
|
|
|
|
|
emiting tokens and errors via callbacks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Other Implementations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Other implementations exist, and they are mature and feature-rich, but they
|
|
|
|
|
are highly opinionated about what's a valid file. Built around maps they don't
|
|
|
|
|
allow repeating names and constraint what characters can be used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
These are great when you can adapt, or already agree, to their conditions but
|
|
|
|
|
that's not always the case when you are parsing configuration files from
|
|
|
|
|
other applications and that's what [asciigoat.org/ini][godoc] attempts to solve.
