# Development has moved to yaml-rust2

**IMPORTANT** The enhancements from this fork have been merged into
[yaml-rust2](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2), the de-facto Rust YAML implementation.

All future development has moved to `yaml-rust2`.
Users are advised to upgrade to `yaml-rust2`.

## Upgrading to yaml-rust2

You can use [yaml-rust2](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2)
as a drop-in replacement for `yaml-rust` by setting the `package` option
to `yaml-rust2` in your project's `Cargo.toml`.

```toml
[dependencies]
yaml-rust = { version = "0.7", package = "yaml-rust2" }
```

The original README from yaml-rust-davvid follows below:


# yaml-rust

The missing YAML 1.2 implementation for Rust.

[![docs.rs](https://img.shields.io/badge/api-rustdoc-blue.svg)](https://docs.rs/yaml-rust-davvid)

`yaml-rust` is a pure Rust YAML 1.2 implementation,
which enjoys the memory safety
property and other benefits from the Rust language.
The parser is heavily influenced by `libyaml` and `yaml-cpp`.

## Quick Start

Add the following to the Cargo.toml of your project:

```toml
[dependencies]
yaml-rust = { version = "0.6", package = "yaml-rust-davvid" }
```

Use `yaml::YamlLoader` to load the YAML documents and access it
as Vec/HashMap:

```rust
use yaml_rust::{YamlLoader, YamlEmitter};

fn main() {
    let s =
"
foo:
    - list1
    - list2
bar:
    - 1
    - 2.0
";
    let docs = YamlLoader::load_from_str(s).unwrap();

    // Multi document support, doc is a yaml::Yaml
    let doc = &docs[0];

    // Debug support
    println!("{:?}", doc);

    // Index access for map & array
    assert_eq!(doc["foo"][0].as_str().unwrap(), "list1");
    assert_eq!(doc["bar"][1].as_f64().unwrap(), 2.0);

    // Chained key/array access is checked and won't panic,
    // returns BadValue if the key does not exist.
    assert!(doc["INVALID_KEY"][100].is_badvalue());

    // Dump the YAML object
    let mut out_str = String::new();
    {
        let mut emitter = YamlEmitter::new(&mut out_str);
        emitter.dump(doc).unwrap(); // dump the YAML object to a String
    }
    println!("{}", out_str);
}
```

Note that `yaml_rust::Yaml` implements `Index<&'a str>` & `Index<usize>`:

* `Index<usize>` assumes the container is an Array
* `Index<&'a str>` assumes the container is a string to value Map
* otherwise, `Yaml::BadValue` is returned

If your document does not conform to this convention (e.g. map with
complex type key), you can use the `Yaml::as_XXX` family API to access your
documents.

## Features

* Pure Rust
* Ruby-like Array/Hash access API
* Low-level YAML events emission

## Specification Compliance

This implementation aims to provide YAML parser fully compatible with
the YAML 1.2 specification. The parser can correctly parse almost all
examples in the specification, except for the following known bugs:

* Empty plain scalar in certain contexts

However, the widely used library `libyaml` also fails to parse these examples,
so it may not be a huge problem for most users.

## Security

This library does not try to interpret any type specifiers in a YAML document,
so there is no risk of, say, instantiating a socket with fields and
communicating with the outside world just by parsing a YAML document.

## Goals

* Encoder
* Tag directive
* Alias while deserialization

## Minimum Rust version policy

This crate's minimum supported `rustc` version is 1.31 (released with Rust 2018, after v0.4.3), as this is the currently known minimum version for [`regex`](https://crates.io/crates/regex#minimum-rust-version-policy) as well.
