@lyse its a hierarchy key value format. I designed it for the network peering tools i use.. I can grant access to different parts of the tree to other users.. kinda like directory permissions. a basic example of the format is:
```
@namespace
# multi
# line
# comment
root :value
# example space comment
@namespace.name space-tag
# attribute comments
attribute attr-tag :value for attribute
# attribute with multiple
# lines of values
foo :bar
:bin
:baz
repeated :value1
repeated :value2
```
each `@` starts the definition of a namespace kinda like `[name]` in ini format. It can have comments that show up before. then each attribute is `key :value` and can have their own `#` comment lines.
Values can be multi line.. and also repeated..
the namespaces and values can also have little meta data tags added to them.
the service can define webhooks/mqtt topics to be notified when the configs are updated. That way it can deploy the changes out when they are updated.
