What is @types/ini?

@types/ini provides TypeScript type definitions for the ini package, which is used to parse and stringify INI configuration files.

What are @types/ini's main functionalities?

Parsing INI files

This feature allows you to parse INI files into JavaScript objects. The code sample reads an INI file and parses its content into a JavaScript object.

const ini = require('ini');
const fs = require('fs');
const config = ini.parse(fs.readFileSync('./config.ini', 'utf-8'));
console.log(config);

Stringifying JavaScript objects to INI format

This feature allows you to convert JavaScript objects into INI formatted strings. The code sample demonstrates how to stringify a JavaScript object into an INI string.

const ini = require('ini');
const config = {
  section: {
    key: 'value'
  }
};
const iniString = ini.stringify(config);
console.log(iniString);
