This repository contains a parser for KNF files for use in bash scripts.
All properties from the KNF file after parsing will be defined as global variables with the next naming scheme: section_property. For example, property from section "http" with the name "ip" will be defined as variable http_ip.
If the property name contains one or more - symbols, all of them will be replaced by the symbol _. For example, property from section "http" with the name "port-range" will be defined as variable http_port_range.
All uppercase symbols will be transformed to lowercase. For example, property from section "HTTP" with the name "Port" will be defined as variable http_port.
