@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Lack of comments are definitely a shortcoming of JSON. I don’t like TOML because it lets you have nested categories ([foo] [foo.bar] [foo.baz]) and it just feels confusing to me, even with indentation. Simple INI files are okay.
The Prosody XMPP server’s configuration file is just a Lua script because Prosody is written in Lua, and that’s excellent.
I spent hours creating a perfect Prosody config for my most recent XMPP server attempt (about 2-3 years ago now) and I lost that file because I deleted the VPS. That was the only important file on there and I just didn’t think of it when I deleted it. I didn’t have a single backup, not even an old copy I scped back to my PC for editing.
I hope I won’t make that mistake again but I wouldn’t be surprised if I did.
@mckinley@twtxt.net Don’t forget the syntax for arrays of sets [[foo.bars]] [[foo.bars]] [[foo.bars]]
