The config-value and config-schema packages are available in a live demo.

About

This package allows the user to define configuration schemas suitable for matching against configuration files written in the config-value format. These schemas allow the user to extract an arbitrary Haskell value from an interpretation of a configuration file. It also allows the user to programatically generate documentation for the configuration files accepted by the loader.
