Package | Documentation | Repository

Declarative configuration source: where to load from, loader options, and address.

Format

SOURCE [(OPTIONS)] [?] [:RESOURCE]

Part	Meaning
SOURCE	Loader kind (opaque string, e.g. env, file, http)
(OPTIONS)	Optional loader options as key=value pairs
?	Skip errors when loading this source (non-fatal loader failures)
:RESOURCE	Optional address (path, URL, …); may be empty

String examples

env
env(prefix=APP_)
file:/etc/app/config.json
file?:.env
file?
env:
http(headers=(Authorization="TOKEN"),timeout=3s)?:https://example.com/config.yml
env(kv=salam,h=(o=b,z=[1,2,3.14,""]))?:oops

Rules

• SOURCE and option keys — ASCII letters, digits, -, _, . (non-empty).
• No whitespace anywhere except inside "quoted" strings.
• Option values — try, in order: boolean, integer, float, list, map; otherwise unquoted string.
  • Booleans: true / false (case-insensitive).
  • Integers: base-10, optional leading - (no +).
  • Floats: digits, ., optional leading - (e.g. 3.14; not .5).
  • Lists: [value,value,…]
  • Maps: (key=value,…) (same value grammar).
  • Unquoted strings: letters, digits, -, _, . only (e.g. APP_, 3s).
  • Quoted strings: "…" with escapes \", \\, \n, \r, \t.
• Empty value — error; use "".
• Trailing commas — error ((a=1,) / [1,]).
• Duplicate keys in (OPTIONS) — last wins.
• ? (skip errors) — must come after SOURCE or after the closing ) of (OPTIONS); never before (OPTIONS) (wrong: env?(prefix=APP), right: env(prefix=APP)?).
• Errors — ParseError messages refer to configuration source. Use {error:#} for snippet + caret.

Parsing

use tanzim_source::Source;

let env = Source::parse("env(prefix=APP_)")?;
let file: Source = "file:/etc/app/config.json".parse()?;
let dotenv = Source::try_from("file?:.env")?;

assert_eq!(env.source(), "env");
assert_eq!(env.to_string(), "env(prefix=APP_)");
assert_eq!(file.resource(), "/etc/app/config.json");
assert!(dotenv.skip_errors());

Build programmatically with SourceBuilder:

use tanzim_source::SourceBuilder;

let source = SourceBuilder::new()
    .with_source("env")
    .with_option("prefix", "APP")
    .with_skip_errors(false)
    .build()?;

Try sources from the command line:

cargo run -p tanzim-source --example parse_sources -- \
  'env(prefix=APP_)' \
  'file:/etc/app/config.json'

Serde

Enable the serde feature to embed Source in config files as a string (canonical form round-trips):

[dependencies]
tanzim-source = { version = "0.1", features = ["serde"] }

use tanzim_source::Source;
use serde::Deserialize;

#[derive(Deserialize)]
struct App {
    sources: Vec<Source>,
}

let app: App = serde_json::from_str(r#"{ "sources": ["env(prefix=APP_)", "file:/etc/app/config.json"] }"#)?;
assert_eq!(app.sources[0].source(), "env");

Invalid strings surface parse errors through serde with configuration source in the message:

use tanzim_source::Source;
use serde::Deserialize;

#[derive(Debug, Deserialize)]
struct App { source: Source }

let error = serde_json::from_str::<App>(r#"{ "source": "env(prefix=)" }"#).unwrap_err();
assert!(error.to_string().contains("configuration source option value"));

Cargo features

Feature	Enables
serde	Serialize / Deserialize for Source as its canonical string

Relations

• Used by all other tanzim crates to represent where to load from.
• tanzim-load consumes Source fields (source, options, resource) in its loaders.
• Full pipeline wired in tanzim.

Structs

Options

Ordered map of loader options.

Source

One configuration source declaration.

SourceBuilder

Builds a Source.

Enums

Error

Error from building or parsing a Source.

OptionValue

Dynamically typed loader option or nested option map.

OptionValueType

Kind of value stored in OptionValue.

ParseError

Error while parsing a configuration source string.

Functions

parse

Parse a configuration source string.
