Crate netrc_parser

A modern and idiomatic .netrc parser in Rust

This library provides a robust parser for .netrc files, supporting machine entries, login credentials, accounts, and macro definitions (macdef). It includes serialization to JSON and TOML, file I/O, and comprehensive error handling.

The parser handles standard .netrc file formats, validates machine names, and supports flexible input with whitespace. Errors are reported via the NetrcError enum, which includes detailed parse error messages and input context.

Example

use netrc_parser::{Netrc, NetrcError};

let input = "machine example.com login user password pass";
let netrc = Netrc::parse_from_str(input)?;
let creds =
    netrc.get("example.com").ok_or_else(|| NetrcError::NotFound("example.com".to_string()))?;
assert_eq!(creds.login, "user");
assert_eq!(creds.password, "pass");
