INI File Parser

A Mono-compatible .NET library for reading/writing INI data from IO streams, file streams, and strings.

Installation

The library is published to NuGet and can be installed on the command-line from the directory containing your solution.

> nuget install ini-parser

Or, from the Package Manager Console in Visual Studio

PM> Install-Package ini-parser

Or from the NuGet Package Manager extension built available for most flavors of Visual Studio!

Getting Started

INI data is stored in nested dictionaries, so accessing the value associated to a key in a section is straightforward. Load the data using one of the provided methods.

var data = parser.ReadFile("Configuration.ini");

Retrieve the value for a key inside of a named section. Values are always retrieved as strings.

var useFullScreen = data["UI"]["fullscreen"];

Modify the value in the dictionary, not the value retrieved, and save to a new file or overwrite.

data["UI"]["fullscreen"] = "true";
parser.WriteFile("Configuration.ini", data);

See the wiki for more usage examples.

Version 2.0!

Since the INI format isn't really a "standard", this version introduces a simpler way to customize INI parsing:

• Pass a configuration object to an IniParser, specifying the behaviour of the parser. A default implementation is used if none is provided.

• Derive from IniDataParser and override the fine-grained parsing methods.
