haz

description

haz is a simple config file format, that supports simple variable definitions.

it utilizes the .haz file extension

usage

files

so far haz only has a simple syntax that consists of:

type:variable_name=variable_definition;

it ignores white spaces so the following would just be the same as above:

type  :variable_name    =  variable_definition     ;

types can be: bool, str, and num (num is just a 32 bit integer)

lib

essentially, you create a new instance using Config::new(path), which read the file at that path. NOTE: the file must be created beforehand. then you can access the variables that were parsed with test_config.parser.values. the values variable is just a hashmap where the key value is of type String and the key is just the custom enum Value as defined in parser.

enum definition:

pub enum Value {
    String(String),
    Number(i32),
    Bool(bool),
}

example usage:

use haz::config::Config;
use haz::parser::Value;

fn haz_usage() {
    let mut config: Config = Config::new("path/to/file.haz").expect("Failed to open .haz config file");
    let new_var = config.parser.values.get("test").unwrap();
    println!("{:?}", new_var);
}
