HsYAML-aeson

HsYAML is a YAML 1.2 processor, i.e. a library for parsing and serializing YAML documents.

Features of HsYAML include:

  • Pure Haskell implementation with small dependency footprint and emphasis on strict compliance with the YAML 1.2 specification.

  • Direct decoding to native Haskell types via (aeson-inspired) typeclass-based API (see Data.YAML).

  • Allows round-tripping while preserving ordering, anchors, and comments at Event-level.

  • Support for constructing custom YAML node graph representation (including support for cyclic YAML data structures).

  • Support for the standard (untyped) Failsafe, (strict) JSON, and (flexible) Core "schemas" providing implicit typing rules as defined in the YAML 1.2 specification (including support for user-defined custom schemas; see Data.YAML.Schema).

  • Support for emitting YAML using Failsafe, (strict) JSON, and (flexible) Core "schemas" (including support for user-defined custom encoding schemas; see Data.YAML.Schema).

  • Event-based API resembling LibYAML's Event-based API (see Data.YAML.Event).

  • Low-level API access to lexical token-based scanner (see Data.YAML.Token).

See also the HsYAML-aeson package which allows to decode and encode YAML by leveraging aeson's FromJSON and ToJSON instances.

      • New functions like encodeNode, encodeNode' for constructing AST
      • New functions like encode, encode1, encodeStrict, encode1Strict for supporting typeclass-based dumping
      • Some ToYAML instances and other api
    • Modify typeMismatch function to show error source location in error messages (#19)
    • Provide location-aware failAtNode alternative to fail

  • Changes in Data.YAML.Event module

    • Preserve and round-trip Comments at Event level(#24)
      • New Comment Event to preserve comments while parsing
      • Some additional implementations to preserve and round-trip comments
    • Fix issue #22
    • New EvPos type for recording event and their corresponding position (#19)
    • Preserve Flow Mapping and Flow sequence (#18)
    • Features to preserve Literal/Folded ScalarStyle (#15)

    • Event(DocumentStart) now records YAML directive
    • Event parser now rejects duplicate/unsupported YAML/TAG directives as mandated by the YAML 1.2 specification

  • Move some schema related definitions from Data.YAML into the new Data.YAML.Schema module

  • Make decode, decode1, decodeStrict, decode1Strict, decodeNode, and decodeNode' treat duplicate keys (under the respective YAML schema) in YAML mappings as a loader-error (controllable via new schemaResolverMappingDuplicates schema property)

  • Define Generic and NFData instances for most types
