[UCG](https://crates.io/crates/ucg) is a universal grammar for configuration. It's goal is not to define a configuration format
|
||
|
|
like JSON, YAML, or TOML. It is not intended to replace the other configuration formats. Instead
|
||
|
|
it is intended to provide a common grammar for generating those formats. Currently UCG is able to
|
||
|
|
generate conversions for the following formats.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Environment Variables
|
||
|
|
* Command Line Flags
|
||
|
|
* An executable shell launch script combining the two above
|
||
|
|
* JSON
|
||
|
|
* YAML
|
||
|
|
* TOML
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
UCG allows you to use one common grammar to generate configuation values for any applications that
|
||
|
|
use one of provided conversion outputs while also allowing you to easily share common configuration
|
||
|
|
values like hostnames, jvm settings, and database settings.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
UCG can build an entire directory of files or a single file.
