What should I use for #HumanReadable #Configuration files?
INI kinda sucks for a number of reasons, #JSON works but it's JSON, its derivatives are much the same but harder to parse...
Would that be a reasonably good match for #RecUtils?
#XML sucks as a user-facing anything.
I though of s-exps but the reality of intern bombing & arbitrary execution in the Lisp reader make me rather reluctant to keep using that now.
#humanReadable #configuration #json #recutils #xml
Anybody here using GNU #Recutils?
https://www.gnu.org/software/recutils/
"GNU Recutils is a set of tools and libraries to access human-editable, plain text databases called recfiles.
The data is stored as a sequence of records, each record containing an arbitrary number of named fields.
The picture below shows a sample database containing information about GNU packages, along with the main features provided by Recutils."
@easrng@uwu.social another option that is in a way even lighter then sqlite is #recutils
El amigo Naikodemus en Twitter, ha colgado esta maravilla: "Bueno, ya está. Diccionario #tokipona-ES en formato #recutils y #csv: https://gitlab.com/naikodemus/conlangs-varios/-/tree/master/Toki%20Pona ; para quien quiera."
