This repository contains the implementation of a Gura (compliant with version 1.0.0) format parser for Javascript written in pure Typescript.

# NPM
npm install gura --save

# Yarn
yarn add gura

# Bower
bower install gura --save

import { parse, dump } from 'gura'

const guraString = `
# This is a Gura document.
title: "Gura Example"

an_object:
    username: "Stephen"
    pass: "Hawking"

# Line breaks are OK when inside arrays
hosts: [
    "alpha",
    "omega"
]`

// Parse: transforms a Gura string into a dictionary
const parsedGura = parse(guraString)
console.log(parsedGura) // {title: 'Gura Example', an_object: {'username': 'Stephen', 'pass': 'Hawking'}, hosts: ['alpha', 'omega']}

// Access a specific field
console.log(`Title -> ${parsedGura['title']}`)

// Iterate over structure
for (const host of parsedGura['hosts']) {
    console.log(`Host -> ${host}`)
}

// Dump: transforms a dictionary into a Gura string
console.log(dump(parsedGura))

If you are using this library for the browser, there are some components like path or fs that are not available as you can not access the filesystem. If your code is not transpiling, you can try adding this block to your Webpack configuration:

module.export = {
    // ...
    resolve: {
        // ...
        fallback: {
            fs: false,
            path: false
        }
    }
}
