* Initial plan
* Fix TOML encoder to prefer readable table sections over inline tables
When converting from YAML/JSON to TOML, the encoder now always uses
readable TOML table section syntax ([section]) instead of compact inline
hash table syntax (key = { ... }), which better matches TOML's goal as
a human-focused configuration format.
Changes:
- decoder_toml.go: Mark inline TOML tables with FlowStyle so round-trips
can be distinguished from YAML flow mappings
- encoder_toml.go:
- encodeTopLevelEntry: use FlowStyle check instead of EncodeSeparate to
decide inline vs table section (all block mappings now become tables)
- encodeSeparateMapping: count FlowStyle children as attributes; use
recursive encodeSeparateMapping for nested non-flow mappings
- encodeMappingBodyWithPath: emit non-flow child mappings as sub-table
sections instead of inline tables
- toml_test.go: add encode (YAML→TOML) test scenarios, update roundtrip
expectations for inline tables (now expanded to table sections)

* Fix TOML roundtrip: use TomlInline flag instead of FlowStyle to preserve inline tables
FlowStyle affected YAML decode output (causing inline tables to appear as
YAML flow mappings). Replace it with a new TOML-specific TomlInline bool
on CandidateNode that:
- Is set by the TOML decoder for inline tables (not FlowStyle)
- Is copied by UpdateAttributesFrom so it survives DeeplyAssign merges
- Is checked by the TOML encoder alongside FlowStyle (for YAML flow maps)
- Has no effect on the YAML encoder, preserving existing TOML→YAML output
TOML roundtrip tests are restored to their original expected values (inline
tables stay inline, table sections stay as sections).

# TOML
|
|
|
|
Decode from TOML. Note that `yq` does not yet support outputting in TOML format (and therefore it cannot roundtrip)
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Parse: Simple
|
|
Given a sample.toml file of:
|
|
```toml
|
|
A = "hello"
|
|
B = 12
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
then
|
|
```bash
|
|
yq -oy '.' sample.toml
|
|
```
|
|
will output
|
|
```yaml
|
|
A: hello
|
|
B: 12
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Parse: Deep paths
|
|
Given a sample.toml file of:
|
|
```toml
|
|
person.name = "hello"
|
|
person.address = "12 cat st"
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
then
|
|
```bash
|
|
yq -oy '.' sample.toml
|
|
```
|
|
will output
|
|
```yaml
|
|
person:
|
|
name: hello
|
|
address: 12 cat st
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Encode: Scalar
|
|
Given a sample.toml file of:
|
|
```toml
|
|
person.name = "hello"
|
|
person.address = "12 cat st"
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
then
|
|
```bash
|
|
yq '.person.name' sample.toml
|
|
```
|
|
will output
|
|
```yaml
|
|
hello
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Parse: inline table
|
|
Given a sample.toml file of:
|
|
```toml
|
|
name = { first = "Tom", last = "Preston-Werner" }
|
|
```
|
|
then
|
|
```bash
|
|
yq -oy '.' sample.toml
|
|
```
|
|
will output
|
|
```yaml
|
|
name:
|
|
first: Tom
|
|
last: Preston-Werner
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Parse: Array Table
|
|
Given a sample.toml file of:
|
|
```toml
|
|
|
|
[owner.contact]
|
|
name = "Tom Preston-Werner"
|
|

|
|
|
|
[[owner.addresses]]
|
|
street = "first street"
|
|
suburb = "ok"
|
|
|
|
[[owner.addresses]]
|
|
street = "second street"
|
|
suburb = "nice"
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
then
|
|
```bash
|
|
yq -oy '.' sample.toml
|
|
```
|
|
will output
|
|
```yaml
|
|
owner:
|
|
contact:
|
|
name: Tom Preston-Werner
|
|
age: 36
|
|
addresses:
|
|
- street: first street
