Configuration Normalizer

A utility that normalizes Apple plist configuration files by processing dictionaries with incomplete key-value pairs and generating standardized output.

Capabilities

Parse configuration files

• Parse a valid plist XML string containing a dictionary with all key-value pairs present and return the JavaScript object @test
• Parse a plist XML string containing a dictionary where a key has no corresponding value element and return an object with that key mapped to an empty string @test
• Parse a plist XML string with multiple dictionaries, some with missing values, and correctly handle all missing values as empty strings @test

Generate normalized configuration

• Build a plist XML string from a JavaScript object containing a dictionary with an undefined value and ensure the key exists in the output without a value element @test
• Build a plist XML string from a JavaScript object with mixed undefined and defined values, ensuring all keys are present in output @test
