Readme

suckless-conf

A small Lisp-like / s-expression configuration language with an embedded scripting layer, plus bf6, its standalone script runtime.

What it does

suckless-conf parses s-expression configuration files into a simple Syntax tree (Data.Config.Suckless.Syntax, .Parse), exposes a key-value access layer (.KeyValue) and bridges to Aeson, TOML, YAML and INI. The same syntax doubles as a scripting language evaluated by a tiny interpreter (Data.Config.Suckless.Script), and the package installs the bf6 executable that runs such scripts directly (for example via a #! shebang).

Modules

  • Data.Config.Suckless - umbrella re-export.
  • Data.Config.Suckless.Syntax, .Parse, .Parse.Fuzzy - the reader.
  • Data.Config.Suckless.KeyValue - key-value access.
  • Data.Config.Suckless.Script, .Script.File, .Script.Internal - the interpreter and bf6 building blocks.
  • Data.Config.Suckless.System, .Almost.RPC - helpers.

Where it came from

Originally written by Dmitry Zuykov (voidlizard) inside the hbs2 project. This Hackage release is published from github.com/NCrashed/suckless-conf so downstream projects can depend on it without vendoring.

The s-expression tokenizer and reader (Data.Text.Fuzzy.Tokenize and Data.Text.Fuzzy.SExp) are derived from the fuzzy-parse package (MIT) and bundled here as internal modules, carrying local fixes that suckless-conf depends on.
