toml-lua (WIP)

Library for encoding and decoding TOML in LuaJIT through Rust's serde and toml crates.

Installation

Don't you do it, but if you do

git clone -b main main https://github.com/kaiuri/toml-lua.git toml-lua
cd toml-lua
make all
# then put that toml_lua.so somewhere in your package.cpath

Usage

--- # toml-lua (WIP), LuaJIT only, for now.
--- TOML encoding and decoding for LuaJIT through Rust's `serde` and `toml` crates.

--- ## Installation
--- For the moment, clone the repo, run `make all` and put `toml.so` somewhere
--- in your package.cpath

--- Usage
local inspect = require('inspect')
---@class toml
---@field encode fun(obj: table): string?, string?
---@field decode fun(str: string): table?, string?
---@field decode_file fun(path: string): table?, string?
