    Cross Platform tool to validate configuration files

  • Cerberus

    Lightweight, extensible data validation library for Python (by pyeve)

  • I was expecting this to validate the configuration files are also valid for their use cases, not just valid JSON, TOML, etc.

    If you're looking for that and Python is your jam, the library cerberus[0] is very good at it.

    The home of the CUE language! Validate and define text-based and dynamic configuration

  • It doesn't include validators for TOML and INI, but if you're doing JSON and YAML, I would take a look at using or building upon CUE (https://cuelang.org/). It is a different take on schema definition (plus more), and is surprising terse and powerful model.
