also: - added `date_time` converting constructors from `date` and `time` - added `is_key<>` and is_key_or_convertible<>` metafunctions - exposed `TOML_NAMESPACE_START` and `TOML_NAMESPACE_END` macros to help with ADL specialization scenarios - added encoder and decoder for `toml-test` (closes #125)

Contributing to toml++
Contributions are very welcome! Either by reporting issues or submitting pull requests. If you wish to submit a PR, please be aware that:
- The single-header file
toml.hpp
is generated by a script; make your changes in the files ininclude
, not intoml.hpp
. - Your changes should compile warning-free on at least one of:
- GCC 8 or higher
- Clang 8 or higher
- MSVC 19.2X (Visual Studio 2019) or higher
- You should regenerate the single-header file as part of your PR (a CI check will fail if you don't).
Regenerating toml.hpp
- Make your changes as necessary
- If you've added a new header file that isn't going to be transitively included by one of the
others, add an include directive to
include/toml++/toml.h
- If you've added a new header file that isn't going to be transitively included by one of the
others, add an include directive to
- Install the prerequisite python packages:
pip3 install -r tools/requirements.txt
- Run
tools/generate_single_header.py
Building and running the tests
Testing is done using Catch2, included in the respository as a submodule under extern/Catch2
.
The first time you want to begin testing you'll need to ensure submodules have been fetched:
git submodule update --init --depth 1 external/Catch2 external/tloptional
Testing on Windows with Visual Studio
Install Visual Studio and Test Adapter for Catch2, then open toml++.sln
and build the
projects in the tests
solution folder. Visual Studio's Test Explorer should pick these up and
allow you to run the tests directly.
If test discovery fails you can usually fix it by enabling
Auto Detect runsettings Files
(settings gear icon > Configure Run Settings
).

Testing with the toml-test suite
As an optional extra you may wish to test against the 'official' test TOML test suite, BurntSushi/toml-test. See the instructions at toml-test/README. Note that the toml++ tests already consume tests from the offical suite via a C++ code-generation script so you are not expected to take this extra step as part of contributing to the library.
