What it is AI-extracted, prompt v1, taxonomy v1, 2026-08-29, confidence not recorded
A Go library for parsing and encoding TOML configuration files, with a reflection-based API mirroring the standard library's and xml packages. It also ships a tomlv CLI validator for checking TOML files.
Use cases
- parse TOML config files into Go structs
- decode TOML with struct tags and custom unmarshalers
- encode Go structs to TOML
- validate TOML files from the command line
- read application configuration in Go
When to choose
- you need TOML support in a Go program with a stdlib-like API
- you want mature, well-tested TOML v1.1.0 compliance
- you need a CLI to validate TOML syntax
When to avoid
- you are parsing YAML or JSON instead of TOML
- you are not working in Go
- you need streaming parsing of very large documents
