Module yaml_rust2::scanner

Home to the YAML Scanner.

The scanner is the lowest-level parsing utility. It is the lexer / tokenizer, reading input a character at a time and emitting tokens that can later be interpreted by the crate::parser to check for more context and validity.

Due to the grammar of YAML, the scanner has to have some context and is not error-free.
