Build Status GoDoc Config File Parser (INI style)

This parser is build as a go equivalent of the Python ConfigParser module and is aimed for maximum compatibility for both the file format and the API. This should make it easy to use existing python style configuration files from go and also ease the porting of existing python code.

Example usage:

package main

import (
	"fmt"

	"github.com/mvo5/goconfigparser"
)

var cfgExample = `[service]
base: something
`

var cfgExample2 = `[service]
base=something
`

func main() {
	cfg := goconfigparser.New()
	cfg.ReadString(cfgExample)
	val, err := cfg.Get("service", "base")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	fmt.Printf("Got value %q\n", val)
}

It implements most of RawConfigParser (i.e. no interpolation) at this point.

Current Limitations:

  • no interpolation
  • no defaults
  • no write support
  • not all API is provided
