Hocon data parser for c.

Overview

This project is a Hocon data parser for c. We use flex && bison to scan and parse files or strings, and stored the parsed results in cJSON Object.

Features

• Json parse.
• Path expression parse.
• Value merging.
• Comment.
• Includes
• Multiline string.
• Reference.
• Value joint.
• Whitespace.

Building

• Get the code from github

git clone https://github.com/nanomq/hocon.git

• Build project

cd hocon && mkdir build
cd build && cmake ..
make

Usage

• Parse from file

    char *hocon_file_path = "your/hconf/file/path";
    cJSON *ret = hocon_parse_file(hocon_file_path);

• parse from string

    char str[] = "abc=1";
    cJSON *ret = hocon_parse_str(str, strlen(str));

Then you can use cJSON interface to read data from cJSON object.
