toml4j
toml4j is a TOML 0.1.0 parser for Java that uses the Parboiled PEG parser.
TOML 0.2.0 support is under development on the master branch.
Installation
Add the following dependency to your POM (or equivalent for other dependency managers):
<dependency>
<groupId>com.moandjiezana.toml</groupId>
<artifactId>toml4j</artifactId>
<version>0.1.0</version>
</dependency>
Quick start
Toml toml = new Toml().parse(getTomlFile());
String someValue = toml.getString("someKey");
Date someDate = toml.getDate("someKeyGroup.someDate");
MyClass myClass = toml.to(MyClass.class);
Usage
A com.moandjiezana.toml.Toml
instance is populated by calling one of parse(File)
, parse(InputStream)
, parse(Reader)
or parse(String)
.
Toml toml = new Toml().parse("a=1");
An exception is thrown if the file is not valid TOML.
The data can then be accessed either by converting the Toml instance to your own class or by accessing tables and keys by name.
Custom classes
Toml#to(Class<T>)
maps a Toml instance to the given class.
Any keys not found in both the TOML and the class are ignored.
Key groups can be mapped to other custom classes. Fields may be private.
All TOML primitives can be mapped, as well as a number of Java-specific types:
- A TOML Number can be converted to any primitive type (or the wrapper equivalent),
BigInteger
orBigDecimal
- A single-letter TOML string can be converted to a
Character
- A TOML string can be converted to an enum or a
java.net.URL
- A TOML array can be converted to a
Set
- A TOML table can be converted to a
Map<String, Object>
name = "Mwanji Ezana"
[address]
street = "123 A Street"
city = "AnyVille"
class Address {
String street;
String city;
}
class User {
String name;
Address address;
}
User user = new Toml().parse(tomlFile).to(User.class);
assert user.name.equals("Mwanji Ezana");
assert user.address.street.equals("123 A Street");
When defaults are present, a shallow merge is performed.
Key names
Use the getters to retrieve the data:
getString(String)
getDate(String)
getBoolean(String)
getLong(String)
getDouble(String)
getList(String, Class<T>)
Key groups can be accessed with getKeyGroup(String)
, which returns a new Toml instance containing only the keys in that key group.
You can directly access values within a key group with a compound key:
String s = toml.getString("keygroup1.keygroup2.key");
Non-existant keys return null.
title = "TOML Example"
[database]
ports = [ 8001, 8001, 8002 ]
enabled = true
[servers]
cluster = "hyades"
[servers.alpha]
ip = "10.0.0.1"
Toml toml = new Toml().parse(getTomlFile());
String title = toml.getString("title");
Boolean enabled = toml.getBoolean("database.enabled");
List<Long> ports = toml.getList("database.ports", Long.class);
Toml servers = toml.getKeyGroup("servers");
String cluster = servers.getString("cluster");
String ip = servers.getString("alpha.ip");
Defaults
The constructor can be given a set of default values that will be used as fallbacks.
Toml defaults = new Toml().parse("a = 2\nb = 3");
Toml toml = new Toml(defaults).parse("a = 1");
Long a = toml.getLong("a"); // returns 1, not 2
Long b = toml.getLong("b"); // returns 3
Long c = toml.getLong("c"); // returns null
TODO
- Fail on invalid definitions
Coming in 0.2.0
Table arrays
Table arrays are mapped to List<Toml>
s with Toml#getTables(String)
. Custom classes and nested table arrays are supported.
[[products]]
name = "Hammer"
sku = 738594937
[[products]]
name = "Nail"
sku = 284758393
color = "gray"
Toml toml = new Toml().parse(getTomlFile());
List<Toml> tables = toml.getTables("products");
tables.get(1).getLong("sku"); // returns 284758393
