Yaml Editor
A library for YAML manipulation while preserving comments.
Usage
A simple usage example:
import 'package:yaml_edit/yaml_edit.dart';
void main() {
final yamlEditor = YamlEditor('{YAML: YAML}');
yamlEditor.assign(['YAML'], "YAML Ain't Markup Language");
print(yamlEditor);
// Expected output:
// {YAML: YAML Ain't Markup Language}
}
Testing
Testing is done in two strategies: Unit testing (/test/editor_test.dart
) and
Golden testing (/test/golden_test.dart
). More information on Golden testing
and the input/output format can be found at /test/testdata/README.md
.
These tests are automatically run with pub run test
.
Limitations
- Users are not allowed to define tags in the modifications.
- Map keys will always be added in the flow style.
