Ziggy Document File Structure

File Extension

A Ziggy Document file have a ziggy file extension.

Contents

A Ziggy Document encodes one Ziggy value. A very common choice is to encode a struct in a Ziggy Document, but in fact a Ziggy Document can be an array, a dictionary, a bytes literal or even just a single null.

The following are all valid Ziggy Documents:

"hello world"

42

{
  "this": "is",
  "a": "dict",
}

[
  .{ .more = "structs" }, 
  .{ .more = "glory" },
]

Comments

Ziggy allows you to put comments in a document. Ziggy comments are all single-line (there’s no multi-line comment syntax, you’re welcome).

.foo = bar,
//.bar = baz,
.tags = [
  "tag1", // foo
  "tag3", // foobar
  // baz
],
