KFL
A KDL file format parser with great error reporting and convenient derive macros.
About KDL
To give you some background on the KDL format. Here is a small example:
foo 1 "three" key="val" {
bar
(role)baz 1 2
}
Here is what are annotations for all the datum as described by the specification and this guide:
foo 1 "three" key="val" { ╮
─┬─ ┬ ───┬─── ────┬──── │
│ │ │ ╰───── property (can be multiple) │
│ │ │ │
│ ╰────┴────────────── arguments │
│ │
╰── node name ├─ node "foo", with
│ "bar" and "baz"
bar │ being children
(role)baz 1 2 │
──┬─ │
╰────── type name for node named "baz" │
} ╯
(note, the order of properties doesn't matter as well as the order of properties with respect to arguments, so I've moved arguments to have less intersections for the arrows)
Usage
Most common usage of this library is using derive
and [parse] function:
use kfl::Decode;
#[derive(Decode)]
struct Config {
#[kfl(children)]
routes: Vec<Route>,
#[kfl(children)]
plugins: Vec<Plugin>,
}
#[derive(Decode)]
struct Route {
#[kfl(argument)]
path: String,
#[kfl(children)]
subroutes: Vec<Route>,
}
#[derive(Decode)]
struct Plugin {
#[kfl(argument)]
name: String,
#[kfl(property)]
url: String,
}
# fn main() -> miette::Result<()> {
let config = kfl::decode_children::<Config>("example.kdl", r#"
route "/api" {
route "/api/v1"
}
plugin "http" url="https://example.org/http"
"#)?;
# Ok(())
# }
This parses into a vector of nodes as enums Config
, but you also use some node as a root of the document if there is no properties and arguments declared:
#[derive(Decode)]
struct Document {
#[kfl(child, unwrap(argument))]
version: Option<String>,
#[kfl(children)]
routes: Vec<Route>,
#[kfl(children)]
plugins: Vec<Plugin>,
}
let config = kfl::decode_children::<Document>("example.kdl", r#"
version "2.0"
route "/api" {
route "/api/v1"
}
plugin "http" url="https://example.org/http"
"#)?;
