}

A high-level YAML parse event.

Variants

StreamStart

The YAML stream has started.

Always the first event in any parse. The associated span is a zero-width span at crate::pos::Pos::ORIGIN.

StreamEnd

The YAML stream has ended.

Always the last event in any parse. The associated span is a zero-width span at the position immediately after the last byte of input.

Comment

A YAML comment (YAML 1.2 §6.6).

text is the comment body — the content of the line after the # character, with the # itself excluded. Leading whitespace after # is preserved (e.g. # hello → text " hello"; #nospace → text "nospace"). The associated span covers from the # character through the last byte of comment text (the newline is not included).

One Comment event is emitted per physical line.

Fields

text: &'input str

Comment body (everything after the #, excluding the newline).

Alias

An alias node (*name) that references a previously anchored node.

The associated span covers the entire *name token (from * through the last character of the name). Resolution of the alias to its anchored node is the loader’s responsibility (Task 20) — the parser emits this event without expansion.

Fields

name: &'input str

The anchor name being referenced (e.g. "foo" for *foo). Borrowed directly from input — no allocation.

DocumentStart

A document has started.

explicit is true when the document was introduced with ---. false for bare documents (no marker).

Fields

explicit: bool

Whether the document was introduced with ---.

version: Option<(u8, u8)>

Version from the %YAML directive preceding this document, if any.

Some((1, 2)) for %YAML 1.2, None when no %YAML directive was present.

tag_directives: Vec<(String, String)>

Tag handle/prefix pairs from %TAG directives preceding this document.

Each entry is (handle, prefix) — e.g. ("!foo!", "tag:example.com,2026:"). Empty when no %TAG directives were present.

DocumentEnd

A document has ended.

explicit is true when the document was closed with .... false for implicitly-ended documents.

Fields

explicit: bool

Whether the document was closed with ....

SequenceStart

A block or flow sequence has started.

Followed by zero or more node events (scalars or nested collections), then a matching Event::SequenceEnd.

Fields

style: CollectionStyle

Whether this is a block (- indicator) or flow ([...]) sequence.

meta: Option<Box<EventMeta<'input>>>

Rare fields: anchor, anchor_loc, tag, tag_loc. None when no anchor or source-text tag is present (the common case).

SequenceEnd

A sequence has ended.

Matches the most recent Event::SequenceStart on the event stack.

MappingStart

A block or flow mapping has started.

Followed by alternating key/value node events (scalars or nested collections), then a matching Event::MappingEnd.

Fields

style: CollectionStyle

Whether this is a block (indentation-based) or flow ({...}) mapping.

meta: Option<Box<EventMeta<'input>>>

Rare fields: anchor, anchor_loc, tag, tag_loc. None when no anchor or source-text tag is present (the common case).

MappingEnd

A mapping has ended.

Matches the most recent Event::MappingStart on the event stack.

Scalar

A scalar value.

value borrows from input when no transformation is required (the vast majority of plain scalars). It owns when line folding produces a string that doesn’t exist contiguously in the input.

Fields

value: Cow<'input, str>

The scalar’s decoded value.

style: ScalarStyle

The style in which the scalar appeared in the source.

meta: Option<Box<EventMeta<'input>>>

Rare fields: anchor, anchor_loc, tag, tag_loc. None when no anchor or source-text tag is present (the common case).

Implementations

impl Event<'_>

pub fn anchor(&self) -> Option<&str>

Returns the anchor name if this event defines one.

pub fn anchor_loc(&self) -> Option<Span>

Returns the source span of the &name anchor token, if any.

pub fn tag(&self) -> Option<&str>

Returns the resolved tag string, if any.

pub fn tag_loc(&self) -> Option<Span>

Returns the source span of the tag token, if any.

Trait Implementations

impl<'input> Clone for Event<'input>

fn clone(&self) -> Event<'input>

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl<'input> Debug for Event<'input>

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'input> Eq for Event<'input>

impl<'input> PartialEq for Event<'input>

fn eq(&self, other: &Event<'input>) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
