Sample TOML files
Tommy Flyleaf edits a file you already have, so it opens with nothing until you give it one. These are files to give it. Download any of them, open it in Tommy Flyleaf, change a value, and save: everything you did not touch comes back exactly as it was, comments and all. That is the whole product, and one edit is enough to see it.
They are also fine files to read. Between them they use every construct TOML has, and each is commented with what it is showing.
| File | What it is | Size |
|---|---|---|
job-ticket.toml
|
A bindery’s job ticket, and the file the editor’s own screenshots and browser demo open with. A comment in every place TOML allows one, a key of every kind, and enough structure to fold. | 1.5 KB |
every-kind.toml
|
The specimen sheet: every kind of value TOML has, the four date and time shapes told apart, comments above, beside and below keys, and an inline table written across several lines. Open this one to see every part of the editor at once. | 3.5 KB |
cargo-manifest.toml
|
A Rust crate’s manifest, of the kind a developer opens most days: dotted keys, inline tables, arrays of tables, and comments explaining what the keys cannot. Rename it to Cargo.toml if you want to hand it to Cargo. | 2.1 KB |
pyproject.toml
|
A Python project’s pyproject.toml, where several tools share one file under tables of their own. The deepest tree of the four. | 2.4 KB |
Each link downloads the file. To read one in the browser instead, open it in a new tab: job-ticket.toml, every-kind.toml, cargo-manifest.toml, pyproject.toml.
Opening one
On macOS, double-click the file if Tommy Flyleaf is the application your Mac opens .toml files with, or right-click it and choose Tommy Flyleaf under Open With, or drag it onto the application’s icon in the Dock. On Windows, right-click and choose Tommy Flyleaf under Open with. On Linux, open it from your file manager or run flyleaf job-ticket.toml. In every case the application’s own Open button does the same thing.
Nothing needs installing to try them: the editor also runs in the browser, where a file is opened through the browser’s picker and never leaves the tab.
Bring your own
Any TOML file will do, and the ones on your own disk are the better test: a Cargo.toml from a Rust project, a pyproject.toml from a Python one, a config.toml from anything else. Tommy Flyleaf opens the file you point it at, writes only where you tell it to, and sends nothing anywhere. The privacy statement says so in full, and the source is where it is verifiable.
