So, which package do I use for TOML?
I find these three:
* toml-foolery (Andrej Petrović)
* toml-d, or toml.d (oglu on github) at ver 0.3.0
* toml, (dlang community on github) at ver 2.0.1
I'm guessing from version numbers that the third one, toml, is
officially good for real world use. But I wonder if there are
good reasons to use the others.
Also, a low-effort search for TOML in the D world turned up
SDLang, where the substring "DLang" has nothing to do with dlang,
the common short name for D Language. SDLang looks nice. Should I
ditch TOML for it?
I just realized - it's been ages since I've dealt with config
files, beyond editing them as an end user. I work on existing
software where someone else made the choiced and wrote the code,
or it's a small specialized project not needing config. I'm a
config caveman!
This is for a small fun personal project with potential show-off
value, available on github but too primitive for now to mention.
Controlling hardware, needing to store device info to recall for
later runs. There are zero compatibility or standards issues to
consider. Whatever is simplest to implement and tinker with is
the winner.
