    Maybe you'd like jsonnet: https://jsonnet.org/

    I find it particularly useful for configurations that often have repeated boilerplate, like ansible playbooks or deploying a bunch of "similar-but" services to kubernetes (with https://tanka.dev).

    Dhall is also quite interesting, with some tradeoffs: https://dhall-lang.org/

    A few years ago I did a small comparison by re-implementing one of my simpler ansible playbooks: https://github.com/retzkek/ansible-dhall-jsonnet

  • Intercal, YAML, and Other Horrible Programming Languages

    A few months ago I explored using Dhall and Jsonnet to re-write an Ansible playbook [0,1]. I wanted to like Dhall, but found the type system got in the way more than it helped, while Jsonnet was very productive and a huge improvement over YAML.

    I wrote one of the Go implementations [0] when TOML was announced and have maintained it since.

    As a library implementor, I wish arrays would hold only one type at a time, but I get that could be useful for users. But as a user, I wish tables were fully defined once (more can't be added up later in the file), especially when using larger files.

    Looks like a it's struggling to install a go dependency, something prob changed since the time this project was made and now. I don't use go but someone more familiar with it can prob help you. Googling the error brought me to this it might solve your problem https://github.com/pelletier/go-toml/discussions/562
