TOML-j0.4

Build Status NPM version

As its name TOML-j0.4 says, this is a TOML v0.4.0 compliant parser built with PEG.js. You can customize it easily by modifying the grammar file toml.pegjs.

Usage

You can install it via npm install toml-j0.4, or just include the script dist/toml-browser.js in your web pages.

var toml = toml || require('toml-j0.4');
 
try {
    var data = toml.parse(src);
} catch (err) {
    if (err instanceof toml.SyntaxError) {
        // do something
    }
}
  • toml.parse only accept one argument — data text in TOML
  • The instance of toml.SyntaxError has these properties:
    • line: the line number
    • column: the column number
    • offset: the zero-based offset from the start of the text
    • message: error message

There is no other API for now. Simple?

Known Problems

  • JavaScript does not have real integers.

    All numbers are floats in JavaScript. Any integer bigger than Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER (9007199254740991 < 2^63 - 1) or smaller than Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER (-9007199254740991 > -(2^63 - 1)) is not safe when being converted or used as pure integer! Enhancement is welcome!

    I suggest storing big integers in strings.

  • RFC 3339 is not the sole criterion of truth.

    You can't imagine how terrible all minitue details of the standard are! So don't expect some date-times will work anytime and anywhere, for instance, "2015-02-29T00:00:00Z", "2015-12-25T24:00:00Z", "2015-11-10T00:60:00Z", "2015-11-10T00:00:60Z", "2015-12-25T24:00:00+24:00", "0000-01-01T00:00:00Z". Enhancement is welcome!
