#Bubby

Bubby is a minimalist data format designed to express simple structured data in human-readable plaintext.

Bubby data consists of four value-types: str, vec, map, and set.

str: byte string

"foo🍔bar"
"raw bytes (hex-encoded): \x22 \xAB \xFF"

vec: vector of values

[]
["foo" "bar" "baz"]
["foo" [["bar" "baz"]] {"abc" "123"} "foo"]

map: mapping of unique keys to values

{}
{"key" "value"}
{"key-1" "value-1" "key-2" "value-2"}
{["+123" "-456"] (["foo" "bar"] {"abc" "123"})}
{
  "name" "Mya"
  "age"  "11"
}

set: set of unique values

()
("foo" "bar" "baz")
(["foo" "bar"] {"key" "value"})

The bubby data format is named after and dedicated to my dog Mya, who I affectionately called my bubby girl. May she rest in peace.
