toml2json
=========
[](https://github.com/woodruffw/toml2json/actions/workflows/ci.yml)
[](https://crates.io/crates/toml2json)
A command-line tool that converts TOML to JSON. Nothing more, nothing less.
## Installation
### Cargo
```bash
cargo install toml2json
```
### PyPI
**NOTE**: [toml2json on PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/toml2json/)
was originally a pure Python CLI; ownership of the name on PyPI
was transferred to [woodruffw](https://pypi.org/user/woodruffw/)
for this Rust-based CLI in August 2025. Versions prior to 0.1.0 on PyPI
are the old pure Python version.
```bash
uvx toml2json
uv tool install toml2json
pipx install toml2json
# or pip install, if you're in a virtual environment
```
### Homebrew
`toml2json` is available via [Homebrew](https://brew.sh):
```bash
brew install toml2json
```
### Alpine Linux
`toml2json` is available for [Alpine Edge](https://pkgs.alpinelinux.org/packages?name=toml2json&branch=edge). It can be installed via [apk](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Alpine_Package_Keeper) after enabling the [testing repository](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Repositories).
```bash
apk add toml2json
```
### Arch Linux
If you're using Arch Linux, you can install `toml2json` using an [AUR helper](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/AUR_helpers). For example:
```bash
paru -S toml2json
```
### Nixpkgs
```
nix-env --install toml2json
```
Please let us know if you package `toml2json` for another package manager or ecosystem!
## Usage
Convert TOML on `stdin` to JSON, filtering it through `jq`:
```bash
$ toml2json <<< 'wow = "amazing"' | jq
```
Produces:
```json
{
"wow": "amazing"
}
```
Convert TOML from a file and pretty-print it without `jq`:
```bash
$ toml2json --pretty ~/.config/kbs2/kbs2.conf
```
Produces:
```json
{
"age-backend": "RageLib",
"error-hook": "~/.config/kbs2/hooks/error-hook-notify",
"keyfile": "REDACTED-GO-AWAY",
"public-key": "REDACTED-GO-AWAY",
"reentrant-hooks": false,
"store": "~/.kbs2-store",
"wrapped": true,
"generators": [
{
"alphabet": "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789(){}[]-_+=",
"length": 16,
"name": "default"
}
],
"commands": {
"edit": {
"editor": "subl -w",
"post-hook": "~/.config/kbs2/hooks/push-repo"
},
"new": {
"generate-on-empty": true,
"post-hook": "~/.config/kbs2/hooks/push-repo"
},
"pass": {
"clear-after": true,
"clear-hook": "~/.config/kbs2/hooks/pass-clear-notify",
"clipboard-duration": 10,
"x11-clipboard": "Clipboard"
},
"rm": {
"post-hook": "~/.config/kbs2/hooks/push-repo"
}
}
}
```
Amazing. What more could you want? Hopefully nothing, because it will never do anything else.
