RFC: Beyond validation — what else would you use this tool for? #507

Description

@kehoecj

We've got 18 formats covered for validation and schema checking. I'm thinking about what additional functionality would be valuable.

Some things I've been considering:

  • validator convert config.yaml --to toml: convert between formats
  • validator fmt .: format and validate config files types. Use the .cfv.toml to set per-format formatting rules. Added in v3!
  • validator merge base.yaml override.yaml: deep merge with conflict detection
  • Automatically fixing syntax errors using a --fix flag Work started in v3!

Would any of these be useful enhancements? Any other enhancements that you'd find useful?
