VDF 3

Pure python module for (de)serialization to and from VDF that works just like json. VDF is Valve's KeyValue text file format

Supports:

  • kv1

Installation

Python 3.7 or higher is required

pip install git+https://github.com/ValvePython/vdf

Example usage

For text representation.

import vdf

# parsing vdf from file or string
d = vdf.load(open('file.txt'))
d = vdf.loads(vdf_text)
d = vdf.parse(open('file.txt'))
d = vdf.parse(vdf_text)

# dumping dict as vdf to string
vdf_text = vdf.dumps(d)
indented_vdf = vdf.dumps(d, pretty=True)

# dumping dict as vdf to file
vdf.dump(d, open('file2.txt','w'), pretty=True)

For binary representation

d = vdf.binary_loads(vdf_bytes)
b = vdf.binary_dumps(d)

# alternative format - VBKV

d = vdf.binary_loads(vdf_bytes, alt_format=True)
b = vdf.binary_dumps(d, alt_format=True)

# VBKV with header and CRC checking

d = vdf.vbkv_loads(vbkv_bytes)
b = vdf.vbkv_dumps(d)

Using an alternative mapper

d = vdf.loads(vdf_string, mapper=collections.OrderedDict)
