Merge pull request #3 from adeuring/1243827 Fix LP bug 1243827
The yaml package enables Go programs to comfortably encode and decode YAML values. It was developed within Canonical as part of the juju project, and is based on a pure Go port of the well-known libyaml C library to parse and generate YAML data quickly and reliably.
The yaml package is almost compatible with YAML 1.1, including support for anchors, tags, etc. There are still a few missing bits, such as document merging, base-60 floats (huh?), and multi-document unmarshalling. These features are not hard to add, and will be introduced as necessary.
The import path for the package is gopkg.in/v1/yaml.
To install it, run:
go get gopkg.in/v1/yaml
If opened in a browser, the import path itself leads to the API documentation:
The package API for yaml v1 will remain stable as described in gopkg.in.
The yaml package is licensed under the LGPL with an exception that allows it to be linked statically. Please see the LICENSE file for details.
package main import ( "fmt" "log" "gopkg.in/v1/yaml" ) var data = ` a: Easy! b: c: 2 d: [3, 4] ` type T struct { A string B struct{C int; D []int ",flow"} } func main() { t := T{} err := yaml.Unmarshal([]byte(data), &t) if err != nil { log.Fatalf("error: %v", err) } fmt.Printf("--- t:\n%v\n\n", t) d, err := yaml.Marshal(&t) if err != nil { log.Fatalf("error: %v", err) } fmt.Printf("--- t dump:\n%s\n\n", string(d)) m := make(map[interface{}]interface{}) err = yaml.Unmarshal([]byte(data), &m) if err != nil { log.Fatalf("error: %v", err) } fmt.Printf("--- m:\n%v\n\n", m) d, err = yaml.Marshal(&m) if err != nil { log.Fatalf("error: %v", err) } fmt.Printf("--- m dump:\n%s\n\n", string(d)) }
This example will generate the following output:
--- t: {Easy! {2 [3 4]}} --- t dump: a: Easy! b: c: 2 d: [3, 4] --- m: map[a:Easy! b:map[c:2 d:[3 4]]] --- m dump: a: Easy! b: c: 2 d: - 3 - 4
