📚 How to Use zon.zig

Once you have installed zon.zig, you can start using it to handle ZON files. Here are a few simple examples:

Example 1: Reading a ZON File

You can read data from a ZON file using the following function:

const std = @import("std");
const zon = @import("zon");

pub fn main() void {
    var file = std.fs.openFile("example.zon", .{ .read = true }) catch {
        std.debug.print("Could not open file\n", .{});
        return;
    };
    
    const content = zon.readZon(file) catch {
        std.debug.print("Failed to read ZON file\n", .{});
        return;
    };
    
    std.debug.print("ZON Content: {s}\n", .{content});
}

Example 2: Writing to a ZON File

You can also write data to a ZON file:

const std = @import("std");
const zon = @import("zon");

pub fn main() void {
    var file = std.fs.openFile("output.zon", .{ .write = true }) catch {
        std.debug.print("Could not create file\n", .{});
        return;
    };
    
    const content = zon.writeZon(data) catch {
        std.debug.print("Failed to write ZON file\n", .{});
        return;
    };
    
    std.debug.print("Wrote ZON Content: {s}\n", .{content});
}

Important Notes

• Make sure to handle file paths carefully. Use full paths if necessary.
