pytomlpp
This is an python wrapper for toml++ (https://marzer.github.io/tomlplusplus/).
Some points you may want to know before use:
- Using
toml++means that this module is fully compatible with TOML v1.0.0. - We convert toml structure to native python data structures (dict/list etc.) when parsing, this is more inline with what
jsonmodule does. - The binding is using pybind11.
- The project is tested using toml-test and pytest.
- We support all major platforms (Linux, Mac OSX and Windows), for both CPython and Pypy and all recent Python versions. You just need to
pip installand we have a pre-compiled binaries ready. No need to play withclang,cmakeor any C++ toolchains.
Example
In [1]: import pytomlpp
In [2]: toml_string = 'hello = "世界"'
In [3]: pytomlpp.loads(toml_string)
Out[3]: {'hello': '世界'}
In [4]: type(_)
Out[4]: dict
In [6]: pytomlpp.dumps({"你好": "world"})
Out[6]: '"你好" = "world"'
Why bother?
There are some existing python TOML parsers on the market but from my experience they are implemented purely in python which is a bit slow.
Parsing data.toml 1000 times:
pytomlpp: 0.914 s
rtoml: 1.148 s ( 1.25x)
tomli: 4.850 s ( 5.30x)
qtoml: 11.882 s (12.99x)
tomlkit: 72.140 s (78.89x)
toml: Parsing failed. Likely not TOML 1.0.0-compliant.
Test it for yourself using the benchmark script.
Installing
We recommend you to use pip to install this package:
pip install pytomlppYou can also use conda to install this package, on all common platforms & python versions.
If you have an issue with a package from conda-forge, you can raise an issue on the feedstock
conda install -c conda-forge pytomlppYou can also install from source:
