NAME

       hocon - manipulate HOCON files

SYNOPSIS

       hocon [options] {get,set,unset} PATH [VALUE]

DESCRIPTION

       The  hocon(1)  command  can  be  used to get and set values on HOCON files.  HOCON (Human-
       Optimized Config Object Notation) is a data format with the semantics of  JSON,  but  more
       convenient as a human-editable config file format.

EXAMPLES

       hocon -i settings.conf -o new_settings.conf set some.nested.value 42

       hocon -f settings.conf set some.nested.value 42

       cat settings.conf | hocon get some.nested.value
