yaml

GitHub build and test status Appveyor build status

Provides support for parsing and emitting Yaml documents.

Data.Yaml provides a high-level interface based around the JSON datatypes provided by the aeson package. It uses Text.Libyaml from libyaml in its implementation of the low-level yaml encoder/decoder.

Examples

Usage examples can be found in the Data.Yaml documentation or in the examples directory.

Additional yaml modules

  • Data.Yaml.Include supports adding !include directives to your YAML files.
  • Data.Yaml.Builder and Data.Yaml.Parser allow more fine-grained control of parsing an rendering, as opposed to just using the aeson typeclass and datatype system for parsing and rendering.
  • Data.Yaml.Aeson is currently a re-export of Data.Yaml to explicitly choose to use the aeson-compatible API.

Executables

Converters json2yaml and yaml2json can be built by disabling flag no-exe, e.g., one of:

cabal install yaml -f-no-exe
stack install yaml --flag yaml:-no-exe

Changes

    • decodeAllFileThrow

0.11.4.0

  • add ToYaml instance for String #186

0.11.3.0

  • Don’t wrap up async exceptions #185

0.11.2.0

  • Reduces some of the code duplication between the encode and encodePretty functions
  • The output of encodePretty has been improved:
    • Multiline strings now use Literal style instead of SingleQuoted
    • Special keys are now quoted in mappings #179
  • Support for complex keys in mappings: #182
    • Adds complexMapping function to Data.Yaml.Builder

  • Compiles with GHC 8.8.1 (MonadFail split)

0.11.1.1

  • Use the appropriate Scientific rendering function to avoid a memory overflow when rendering. The previously used function from aeson would not use scientific notation, and could use large amounts of memory for values such as 1e9999999999999.

  • Default to using literal style for multiline strings #152

0.10.1.1

  • Correctly declare libyaml dependency on system-libyaml flag #151

0.10.1

  • Avoid incurring a semigroups dependency on recent GHCs.
  • Fix a space leak that was introduced with 0.10.0 #147

0.10.0

  • Add decodeFileWithWarnings which returns warnings for duplicate fields

0.9.0
