ndb.go	Change Emit -> Marshal, Parse -> Unmarshal to fit in with rest of std library	2013-07-15 10:21:14 -04:00
read_test.go	Change Emit -> Marshal, Parse -> Unmarshal to fit in with rest of std library	2013-07-15 10:21:14 -04:00
read.go	Feature complete. I may change the names, and error-handling needs to be more robust. I feel pretty good about resisting bad input, but not so good about saving to or writing from complex data structures, or maps with interface{} elements.	2013-07-15 10:16:10 -04:00

README.md

This is library loads lines of text in a simple attr=value format into arbitrary Go data structures, and encodes Go data structures into lines of text in the same format. The format is inspired by the Plan 9 network database format, seen here:

http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/6/ndb

The format is the same, except that values may be quoted with single quotes to contain white space. The package can be installed with go get. Once installed, documentation can be viewed with the godoc tool.
