class

YamlSchema

const abstract class YamlSchema : Obj

A class used to convert parsed YamlObjs to native Fantom objects, and vice versa.

Different schemas can recognize different tags; for example, the failsafe schema only recognizes the str, seq, and map tags and ignores all the rest (thus only generating Strs, Lists, and Maps), while the JSON schema also recognizes integers, booleans, etc.

See the pod documentation for more information, especially about the specifics of each built-in schema.

 fields core

The default YamlSchema

 failsafe

A basic YamlSchema that only generates maps, lists, and strings

 json

A YamlSchema that can parse all JSON tokens and errors when a plain token is not JSON-compliant

 methods encode

Transforms the native Fantom object into a YamlObj hierarchy that preserves as much information as possible

 decode

Recursively transforms the YAML object into a native Fantom object using this tag resolution schema

 core const static YamlSchema : core

The default YamlSchema.

 decode virtual Obj? decode(YamlObj node)

Recursively transforms the YAML object into a native Fantom object using this tag resolution schema.

 encode abstract YamlObj encode(Obj? obj)

Transforms the native Fantom object into a YamlObj hierarchy that preserves as much information as possible. The object must be serializable or simple. YamlObjs are encoded as themselves; no further processing is done.

 failsafe const static YamlSchema : failsafe

A basic YamlSchema that only generates maps, lists, and strings.

 json const static YamlSchema : json

A YamlSchema that can parse all JSON tokens and errors when a plain token is not JSON-compliant.
