// create the instance
IniFile ini = IniFile();

// load ini file contents
await ini.readFile('./example/YSA.ini');

// get items of an entire section
print(ini.getItems('SETTINGS'));

// get specific item inside a section
print(ini.getItem('SETTINGS', 'caps'));

// modifying existing item
ini.setItem('SETTINGS', 'caps', '2');

// creating new item
ini.setItem('SETTINGS', 'debug', 'false');

// inserting items in section
ini.setItems('SETTINGS', [
['abc', '1'],
['def', '2']
]);

// removing entire section
// note that removing entire section will also remove
// the comments above the section until a blank line
// or valid line was found
ini.removeSection('SETTINGS');

// creating new section/item
// if the section does not exists, it will be created
// the same rule applies to keys
ini.setItem('NEWSECTION', 'newitem', 'new value');
