toml-sort 0.15.0

Toml sorting library

toml-sort

A command line utility to sort and format your toml files. Requires Python 3.6 or greater.

Installation

# With pip
pip install toml-sort

# With poetry
poetry add toml-sort

Motivation

This library strives to sort TOML files by providing the following features:

• Sort tables and Arrays of Tables (AoT)
• Option to sort non-tables / non-AoT's, or not
• Preserve inline comments
• Option to preserve top-level document comments, or not
• Standardize whitespace and indentation

I wrote this library because I couldn't find any "good" sorting utilities for TOML files.

Usage

This project can be used as either a command line utility or a Python library.

[[a-section.hello]]
ports = [ 8001, 8001, 8002 ]
dob = 1979-05-27T07:32:00Z # First class dates? Why not?



  [b-section]
  date = "2018"
  name = "Richard Stallman"

[[a-section.hello]]
ports = [ 80 ]
dob = 1920-05-27T07:32:00Z # Another date!

                          [a-section]
                          date = "2019"

Formatted, sorted output
