GKeyFile
parses .ini-like config files.
GKeyFile
lets you parse, edit or create files containing groups of
key-value pairs, which we call “key files” for lack of a better name.
Several freedesktop.org specifications use key files now, e.g the
Desktop Entry Specification
and the Icon Theme Specification.
The syntax of key files is described in detail in the Desktop Entry Specification, here is a quick summary: Key files consists of groups of key-value pairs, interspersed with comments.
⚠️ The following code is in txt ⚠️
# this is just an example
# there can be comments before the first group
[First Group]
Name=Key File Example\tthis value shows\nescaping
# localized strings are stored in multiple key-value pairs
Welcome=Hello
Welcome[de]=Hallo
Welcome[fr_FR]=Bonjour
Welcome[it]=Ciao
[Another Group]
Numbers=2;20;-200;0
Booleans=true;false;true;true
Lines beginning with a ‘#’ and blank lines are considered comments.
Groups are started by a header line containing the group name enclosed in ‘[’ and ‘]’, and ended implicitly by the start of the next group or the end of the file. Each key-value pair must be contained in a group.
Key-value pairs generally have the form key=value
, with the exception
of localized strings, which have the form key[locale]=value
, with a
locale identifier of the form lang_COUNTRY@MODIFIER
where COUNTRY
and MODIFIER
are optional. Space before and after the ‘=’ character
are ignored. Newline, tab, carriage return and backslash characters in
value are escaped as \n
, \t
, \r
, and \\\\
, respectively. To preserve
leading spaces in values, these can also be escaped as \s
.
Key files can store strings (possibly with localized variants), integers, booleans and lists of these. Lists are separated by a separator character, typically ‘;’ or ‘,’. To use the list separator character in a value in a list, it has to be escaped by prefixing it with a backslash.
This syntax is obviously inspired by the .ini files commonly met on Windows, but there are some important differences:
-
.ini files use the ‘;’ character to begin comments, key files use the ‘#’ character.
-
Key files do not allow for ungrouped keys meaning only comments can precede the first group.
-
Key files are always encoded in UTF-8.
-
Key and Group names are case-sensitive. For example, a group called [GROUP] is a different from [group].
-
.ini files don’t have a strongly typed boolean entry type, they only have GetProfileInt(). In key files, only true and false (in lower case) are allowed.
Note that in contrast to the Desktop Entry Specification, groups in key files may contain the same key multiple times; the last entry wins. Key files may also contain multiple groups with the same name; they are merged together. Another difference is that keys and group names in key files are not restricted to ASCII characters.
Here is an example of loading a key file and reading a value:
⚠️ The following code is in c ⚠️
g_autoptr(GError) error = NULL;
g_autoptr(GKeyFile) key_file = g_key_file_new ();
if (!g_key_file_load_from_file (key_file, "key-file.ini", flags, &error))
{
if (!g_error_matches (error, G_FILE_ERROR, G_FILE_ERROR_NOENT))
g_warning ("Error loading key file: %s", error->message);
return;
}
g_autofree gchar *val = g_key_file_get_string (key_file, "Group Name", "SomeKey", &error);
if (val == NULL &&
!g_error_matches (error, G_KEY_FILE_ERROR, G_KEY_FILE_ERROR_KEY_NOT_FOUND))
{
g_warning ("Error finding key in key file: %s", error->message);
return;
}
else if (val == NULL)
{
// Fall back to a default value.
val = g_strdup ("default-value");
}
Here is an example of creating and saving a key file:
⚠️ The following code is in c ⚠️
g_autoptr(GKeyFile) key_file = g_key_file_new ();
const gchar *val = …;
g_autoptr(GError) error = NULL;
g_key_file_set_string (key_file, "Group Name", "SomeKey", val);
// Save as a file.
if (!g_key_file_save_to_file (key_file, "key-file.ini", &error))
{
g_warning ("Error saving key file: %s", error->message);
return;
}
// Or store to a GBytes for use elsewhere.
gsize data_len;
g_autofree guint8 *data = (guint8 *) g_key_file_to_data (key_file, &data_len, &error);
if (data == NULL)
{
g_warning ("Error saving key file: %s", error->message);
return;
}
g_autoptr(GBytes) bytes = g_bytes_new_take (g_steal_pointer (&data), data_len);
GLib type: Shared boxed type with reference counted clone semantics.
Implementations§
Source§impl KeyFile
impl KeyFile
Sourcepub fn new() -> KeyFile
pub fn new() -> KeyFile
Creates a new empty #GKeyFile object. Use g_key_file_load_from_file(), g_key_file_load_from_data(), g_key_file_load_from_dirs() or g_key_file_load_from_data_dirs() to read an existing key file.
§Returns
an empty #GKeyFile.
Sourcepub fn comment(

pub fn comment( &self, group_name: Option<&str>, key: Option<&str>, ) -> Result<GString, Error>
Retrieves a comment above @key from @group_name.
If @key is None
then @comment will be read from above
@group_name. If both @key and @group_name are None
, then
@comment will be read from above the first group in the file.
Note that the returned string does not include the ‘#’ comment markers, but does include any whitespace after them (on each line). It includes the line breaks between lines, but does not include the final line break.

double. If @group_name is None
, the start_group is used.
If @key cannot be found then 0.0 is returned and @error is set to
KeyFileError::KeyNotFound
. Likewise, if the value associated
with @key cannot be interpreted as a double then 0.0 is returned
and @error is set to KeyFileError::InvalidValue
.

is returned
and @error is set to KeyFileError::InvalidValue
.
§group_name

group name
§key
a non-None
key
§Returns
the value associated with the key as a signed 64-bit integer, or 0 if the key was not found or could not be parsed.

pub fn integer(&self, group_name: &str, key: &str) -> Result<i32, Error>
Returns the value associated with @key under @group_name as an integer.
If @key cannot be found then 0 is returned and @error is set to

.
§group_name

If calling g_key_file_get_locale_string() or g_key_file_get_locale_string_list() with exactly the same @self, @group_name, @key and @locale, the result of those functions will have originally been tagged with the locale that is the result of this function.

event that the @group_name cannot be found, None
is returned
and @error is set to KeyFileError::GroupNotFound
.

G_FILE_ERROR
is returned. If there is a problem parsing the file, a
G_KEY_FILE_ERROR
is returned.
This function will never return a KeyFileError::NotFound
error. If the
@file is not found, FileError::Noent
is returned.

written above the first group in the file.
Note that this function prepends a ‘#’ comment marker to each line of @comment.

Looks whether the key file has the key @key in the group @group_name.
Note that this function does not follow the rules for #GError strictly;
the return value both carries meaning and signals an error. To use
this function, you must pass a #GError pointer in @error, and check

) -> Result<PtrSlice<GStringPtr>, Error>
pub fn string_list( &self, group_name: &str, key: &str, ) -> Result<PtrSlice<GStringPtr>, Error>
Returns the values associated with @key under @group_name.
In the event the key cannot be found, None
is returned and
@error is set to KeyFileError::KeyNotFound
. In the
event that the @group_name cannot be found, None
is returned
and @error is set to KeyFileError::GroupNotFound

§Returns
a None
-terminated string array or None

Returns the values associated with @key under @group_name.
In the event the key cannot be found, None
is returned and

) -> Result<GString, Error>
pub fn locale_string( &self, group_name: &str, key: &str, locale: Option<&str>, ) -> Result<GString, Error>
Returns the value associated with @key under @group_name
translated in the given @locale if available. If @locale is
None
then the current locale is assumed.
If @locale is to be non-None
, or if the current locale will change over
the lifetime of the #GKeyFile, it must be loaded with
KeyFileFlags::KEEP_TRANSLATIONS
in order to load strings for all locales.
If @key cannot be found then None
is returned and @error is set
to KeyFileError::KeyNotFound
. If the value associated
with @key cannot be interpreted or no suitable translation can
be found then the untranslated value is returned.
§group_name
a group name
§key

§locale
a locale identifier or None
§Returns
a newly allocated string or None

Returns the value associated with @key under @group_name
