Examples

tomcli get

Query TOML files

Print a TOML table:

$ tomcli get pyproject.toml build-system
[build-system]
requires = ["flit_core >=3.2,<4"]
build-backend = "flit_core.buildapi"

Get a newline-separated list of strings:

$ tomcli get pyproject.toml --formatter newline-list project.dependencies
click
importlib_metadata; python_version<'3.11'

List all available formatters for use with tomcli get -F / tomcli get --formatter:

$ tomcli-formatters
default
        Use the `toml` formatter if the object is a Mapping and fall back to
        `string`.

json
        Return the JSON representation of the object

newline-keys
        Return a newline-separated list of Mapping keys

newline-list
        Return a newline separated list

newline-values
        Return a newline-separated list of Mapping values

string
        Print the Python str() representation of the object

toml
        Return the TOML mapping of the object

tomcli set

Modify TOML files

Delete a TOML value:

$ tomcli set pyproject.toml del 'project.dependencies'

Set a value to true or false:

$ tomcli set pyproject.toml true 'tool.mypy.check_untyped_defs'
$ tomcli set pyproject.toml false 'tool.mypy.check_untyped_defs'

Set a float or int value:

$ tomcli set pyproject.toml float 'tool.coverage.run.fail_under' '90.0'
$ tomcli set pyproject.toml int 'tool.coverage.run.fail_under' '90'

Set a string value:

$ tomcli set pyproject.toml str 'project.readme' 'README.rst'

tomcli get arrays

Modify arrays within a TOML file

Remove all values that match a Python regex:

NOTE: The regex must match the entire string

$ tomcli set pyproject.toml arrays delitem \
    'project.classifiers' 'Programming Language :: Python.*'

Remove all values that match an fnmatch-style pattern:

$ tomcli set pyproject.toml arrays delitem --type fnmatch \
    'project.optional-dependencies.dev' '*cov*'

Replace values that match a Python regex:

NOTE: The regex must match the entire string

$ tomcli set pyproject.toml arrays replace \
    'project.optional-dependencies.test' '(.+)==(.+)' '\1>=\2'

Create a list of strings:

## Create the new file
$ touch plays.toml
## Automatically creates the "Romeo and Juliet" table
$ tomcli set plays.toml arrays str \
    '"Romeo and Juliet".characters' 'Romeo' 'Juliet' 'Mercuitio' 'Nurse'
