It would be nice if we could also use other input formats like CSV or XML or TOML as input in addition to YAML/JSON. These formats could be converted to a fixed data structure on the fly. E.g. for CSV:
Column1;Column2;Column3; value1;value2;value3; value4;value5;value6;
and configured like this:
data: - includes: myfile.csv type: csv root: myfile
Could internally yield:
myfile: #this was specified as "root" - Column1: value1 Column2: value2 Column3: value3 - Column1: value4 Column2: value5 Column3: value6
Similarly for XML:
<root> <foo bar="baz"> <entries> <lorem ipsum="dolor">sit amet</lorem> <lorem ipsum="dolor">sit amet 2</lorem> </entries> <remarks/> </foo> </root>
root: foo: "@bar": baz entries: - lorem: "@ipsum" : dolor __text: sit amet - lorem: "@ipsum" : dolor __text: sit amet 2 remarks: __text: ""
Or TOML:
[foo] bar="baz"
foo: bar: "baz"
This is now possible in 2.1.0.
