Panini 1.3.5

Panini

A simple .NET library for INI files parsing.

Here's an example on how to use Panini in order to create, parse and update your INIs. The main focus is on chainable methods and being able to build multiple sections with the same name.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Panini;

// Build an IniFile istance and parse one or more files

IniFile parsedIni = new IniFile();
parsedIni.Parse("./test.ini");

// Extract a section and try add a new value
parsedIni.GetSectionByName("General")?.TryAdd("AnotherKey", "AnotherValue");

// Now let's try to extract a key from a section
string? value = parsedIni.GetSectionByName("General")?.TryGet("AnotherKey");

// Extracts all the sections for the given name
List<IniSection> sections = parsedIni.GetSectionsByName("User");

// Iterates through all the sections
sections.ForEach(s => Console.WriteLine($"Username is : {s.TryGet("Name")}"));

// Adds a new section (in this case, a new user entry)
parsedIni.AddSection("User").TryAdd("Name", "Paul")?.TryAdd("Surname", "Jacob");

// Write the changes
parsedIni.Save("./newini.ini");

// Now the ini file should be updated or created at the given path
