Expand description
A YAML 1.2 parser using a greedy parsing algorithm with PEG atoms.
The major purpose of this crate is to let the user build their own YAML reader/builder/validator.
This parser is not ensuring about YAML spec but almost functions are well-implemented.
The buffer reader has also not been implemented, but sub-parsers can read the chunks.
WARNING: YAML 1.2 is compatible with JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) format, but not in the strict mode.
Parser
Function parse
/parse_cyclic
is used to parse YAML string into Node
data structure,
which has a data holder Yaml
.
There also has a multiple-threaded version corresponding to NodeRc
/NodeArc
and YamlRc
/YamlArc
.
To get back as string, please use dump
function.
There are also have some macros for building Node
structure from Rust data.
Especially node!
macro, almost data can be built by the macro literally.
If you went to rise your own error message, indicated_msg
might be a good choice.
Anchor Parsing
parse
: The parser will replace the anchors during parsing.parse_cyclic
: Cyclic data means that a parent alias is inserted at the child node. Keep the alias to avoid having undefined anchors when parsing.
No Standard Library
The std
feature is a default feature, use --no-default-features
to build in the no-std mode.
Serialization and Deserialization
Enable serde
feature to use serde
crate,
which provides a set of protocol traits to convert between custom Rust data.
Please be aware that the additional fields will be discarded when convert to a fix-sized structure.
For example, the structure fields can be turned into map keys as well.
On the other hand, the primitive types are still able to transform to YAML data without serialization,
according to built-in From
and Into
traits.

Macros
Structs
Indicator of the node use to index the sequence position.

Functions
Indicate the position of the documentation. This function will show the line number and column number of the position.
Same as indicated_msg
, but join the path before message.
