Commands

Guardian Tcl currenly adds one ensemble command, parse. This command exposes subcommands to parse data from a variety of formats directly into nested Tcl data structures.

parse

The parse command has the following usage:

parse <format> <data>

• <format> can be any of json, toml, or yaml.
• <data> is a Tcl string containing the raw data to deserialize.

For example, to deserialize the contents of the $conf_src variable as JSON, you can write:

set config [parse json $conf_src]

These commands are wrappers around the corresponding Serde deserializers.
