Windows batch script to read an .ini file

问题


I'm trying to read an .ini file with the following format:

[SectionName]
total=4
[AnotherSectionName]
total=7
[OtherSectionName]
total=12

Basically I want to print out certain values from the .ini file, for example the total under OtherSectionName followed by the total from AnotherSectionName.

Here's a command file (ini.cmd) you can use to extract the relevant values:

@setlocal enableextensions enabledelayedexpansion
@echo off
set file=%~1
set area=[%~2]
set key=%~3
set currarea=
for /f "usebackq delims=" %%a in ("!file!") do (
    set ln=%%a
    if "x!ln:~0,1!"=="x[" (
        set currarea=!ln!
    ) else (
        for /f "tokens=1,2 delims==" %%b in ("!ln!") do (
            set currkey=%%b
            set currval=%%c
            if "x!area!"=="x!currarea!" if "x!key!"=="x!currkey!" (
                echo !currval!
            )
        )
    )
)
endlocal

And here's a transcript showing it in action (I've manually indented the output to make it easier to read):

c:\src>type ini.ini
    [SectionName]
    total=4
    [AnotherSectionName]
    total=7
    [OtherSectionName]
    total=12
c:\src>ini.cmd ini.ini SectionName total
    4
c:\src>ini.cmd ini.ini AnotherSectionName total
    7
c:\src>ini.cmd ini.ini OtherSectionName total
    12

To actually use this in another cmd file, just replace the echo %val% line below with whatever you want to do with it):

for /f "delims=" %%a in ('call ini.cmd ini.ini AnotherSectionName total') do (
    set val=%%a
)
echo %val%

I know I'm a little late to the party, but I decided to write a general purpose ini file utility batch script to address this question.

The script will let you retrieve or modify values in an ini-style file. Its searches are case-insensitive, and it preserves blank lines in the ini file. In essence, it allows you to interact with an ini file as a sort of very rudimentary database.

This script will work fine if you're reading / writing only alphanumeric values or symbols that have no special meaning to the cmd interpreter. If you need something capable of handling values containing ampersands, percents, etc, see the Update section below.

echo Usage: %~nx0 /i item [/v value] [/s section] inifile

echo Take the following ini file for example:
echo;
echo    [Config]
echo    password=1234
echo    usertries=0
echo    allowterminate=0
echo;
echo To read the "password" value:
echo    %~nx0 /s Config /i password inifile
echo;
echo To change the "usertries" value to 5:
echo    %~nx0 /s Config /i usertries /v 5 inifile
echo;
echo In the above examples, "/s Config" is optional, but will allow the selection of
echo a specific item where the ini file contains similar items in multiple sections.

Example

Contents of example.ini:

[SectionName]
; This is a comment.
total=4

[AnotherSectionName]
# This is another comment.
total=7

[OtherSectionName]
And it should work with non-standard comments as well.
total=12

Test session:

C:\Users\me\Desktop>ini /s AnotherSectionName /i total example.ini
7

C:\Users\me\Desktop>ini /s othersectionname /i Total /v f00 example.ini
f00

C:\Users\me\Desktop>type example.ini
[SectionName]
; This is a comment.
total=4

[AnotherSectionName]
# This is another comment.
total=7

[OtherSectionName]
And it should work with non-standard comments as well.
Total=f00

Update

Apparently the pure batch solution chokes when it encounters characters like & (and probably % and others). So here's a more robust batch + JScript hybrid script that addresses that problem. The syntax and output are the same (but with an added /d switch to delete item=value pairs).

This script sets %ERRORLEVEL%=0 for success, and %ERRORLEVEL%=1 on error.

I have short proposition for read config.ini file in current directory form windows batch (.bat):

Near end of batch file we paste that code:

:ini    
@for /f "tokens=2 delims==" %%a in ('find "%~1=" config.ini') do @set %~2=%%a    
@goto:eof

And near start of batch file we call it by:

@call:ini IniFieldName batchVarName
@echo IniFieldName is: %batchVarName%

config.ini

foo=string
bar=123
baz=spaces work too!

for /F "tokens=*" %%I in (config.ini) do set %%I

Old question but I just recently needed that and found @paxdiablo answer. I needed something more so I enriched his answer and I'm now giving back.

What I also needed was finding which key held a specific value. Also, explicitly support root section (no section name).

Here's my code, a function I put into a library (CMDLib variable) I call when I need it (among other functions).

:ReadINI
REM ReadINI - Get value from [Section]; Key from an INI File.
REM Arguments:
REM   File    INI-file to read from
REM   Key     Name of the entry
REM   Section Name of the [Section] under which the Value is.
REM     Optional, will find a value from the root section if empty.
REM               For root section, set to "-" to also use "Value"
REM   Value   If Key is set to "-", will find which Key has "Value"
REM
REM Returns: A string of text will be echoed, ready for logging.
REM   An echo of the value.
REM
REM Call example:
REM   for /f "delims=" %%a in ('Call "%CMDLib%" ReadINI "Inifile" Key Section') do ( set Value=%%a)

No syntax highlighting for CMD? That's a shame.. ;-)

Hmm, maybe this helps someone.. Had to build it since inifile.exe ran out of tricks and seems every damn ini parser on web needs 'KEY' when all I need is all values under [section]. So, here's section print..

Yeah, yeah I know it looks like it's from rear, but it works, although, not sure will it work with spaces in folder or spaces in files. Built it to basically just have .ini file at same folder and ran from command-line.

Usage: genetix_ini.cmd section input.ext output.ext

UPDATE #2: Seems, I made mistake on not zeroing the 2 set vars. Which started to cause an issue at second pass of the script.
