Encoding

CSV

• readAll(reader: BufReader, opt: ParseOptions = { comma: ",", trimLeadingSpace: false, lazyQuotes: false } ): Promise<[string[][], BufState]>: Read the whole buffer and output the structured CSV datas
• parse(csvString: string, opt: ParseOption): Promise<unknown[]>: See parse

Parse

Parse the CSV string with the options provided.

Options

ParseOption

• header: boolean | string[] | HeaderOption[];: If a boolean is provided, the first line will be used as Header definitions. If string[] or HeaderOption[] those names will be used for header definition.
• parse?: (input: unknown) => unknown;: Parse function for the row, which will be executed after parsing of all columns. Therefore if you don't provide header and parse function with headers, input will be string[].

HeaderOption

• name: string;: Name of the header to be used as property.
• parse?: (input: string) => unknown;: Parse function for the column. This is executed on each entry of the header. This can be combined with the Parse function of the rows.

Usage

// input:
// a,b,c
// e,f,g

const r = await parseFile(filepath, {
  header: false
});
// output:
// [["a", "b", "c"], ["e", "f", "g"]]

const r = await parseFile(filepath, {
  header: true
});
// output:
// [{ a: "e", b: "f", c: "g" }]

const r = await parseFile(filepath, {
  header: ["this", "is", "sparta"]
});
// output:
// [
//   { this: "a", is: "b", sparta: "c" },
//   { this: "e", is: "f", sparta: "g" }
// ]

const r = await parseFile(filepath, {
  header: [
    {
      name: "this",
      parse: (e: string): string => {
        return `b${e}$$`;
      }
    },
    {
      name: "is",
      parse: (e: string): number => {
        return e.length;
      }
    },
    {
      name: "sparta",
      parse: (e: string): unknown => {
        return { bim: `boom-${e}` };
      }
    }
  ]
});
// output:
// [
//    { this: "ba$$", is: 1, sparta: { bim: `boom-c` } },
//    { this: "be$$", is: 1, sparta: { bim: `boom-g` } }
// ]

const r = await parseFile(filepath, {
  header: ["this", "is", "sparta"],
  parse: (e: Record<string, unknown>) => {
    return { super: e.this, street: e.is, fighter: e.sparta };
  }
});
// output:
// [
//   { super: "a", street: "b", fighter: "c" },
//   { super: "e", street: "f", fighter: "g" }
// ]

TOML

This module parse TOML files. It follows as much as possible the TOML specs. Be sure to read the supported types as not every specs is supported at the moment and the handling in TypeScript side is a bit different.

Supported types and handling

• ✔️ Keys
• ❗ String
• ✔️ Multiline String
• ✔️ Literal String
• ❗ Integer
• ✔️ Float
• ✔️ Boolean
• ✔️ Offset Date-time
• ✔️ Local Date-time
• ✔️ Local Date
• ❗ Local Time
• ✔️ Table
• ✔️ Inline Table
• ❗ Array of Tables

❗ Supported with warnings see Warning.

⚠️ Warning

String

• Regex : Due to the spec, there is no flag to detect regex properly in a TOML declaration. So the regex is stored as string.

Integer

For Binary / Octal / Hexadecimal numbers, they are stored as string to be not interpreted as Decimal.

Local Time

Because local time does not exist in JavaScript, the local time is stored as a string.

Inline Table

Inline tables are supported. See below:

animal = { type = { name = "pug" } }
## Output
animal = { type.name = "pug" }
## Output { animal : { type : { name : "pug" } }
animal.as.leaders = "tosin"
## Output { animal: { as: { leaders: "tosin" } } }
"tosin.abasi" = "guitarist"
## Output
"tosin.abasi" : "guitarist"

Array of Tables

At the moment only simple declarations like below are supported:

[[bin]]
name = "deno"
path = "cli/main.rs"

[[bin]]
name = "deno_core"
path = "src/foo.rs"

[[nib]]
name = "node"
path = "not_found"

will output:

{
  "bin": [
    { "name": "deno", "path": "cli/main.rs" },
    { "name": "deno_core", "path": "src/foo.rs" }
  ],
  "nib": [{ "name": "node", "path": "not_found" }]
}

Usage

Parse

import { parse } from "./parser.ts";
import { readFileStrSync } from "../fs/read_file_str.ts";

const tomlObject = parse(readFileStrSync("file.toml"));

const tomlString = 'foo.bar = "Deno"';
const tomlObject22 = parse(tomlString);

Stringify

import { stringify } from "./parser.ts";
const obj = {
  bin: [
    { name: "deno", path: "cli/main.rs" },
    { name: "deno_core", path: "src/foo.rs" }
  ],
  nib: [{ name: "node", path: "not_found" }]
};
const tomlString = stringify(obj);
