# NOTICE
this repository is a rebase of the `master` branch onto the `serde` branch of the saphyr rust crate.
nothing novel has been added to this repository. all updates and actual value can be found at its [actual home](https://github.com/saphyr-rs/saphyr).
this repository will remain available until the serde functionality is merged into master upstream.
the original readme follows this notice. the license claims below are as such for this repository as well.
# Saphyr libraries
This repository is home to `saphyr-parser`, `saphyr` and soon-to-be
`saphyr-serde`. These crates provide fully YAML 1.2 compliant parsing and
manipulation, with a focus on correctness, performance and API friendliness (in that order).
[`saphyr`](https://docs.rs/saphyr/latest/saphyr/) is the most user-friendly and
high-level crate, providing quick-and-easy YAML importing, exporting and object
manipulation.
```rs
use saphyr::{Yaml, YamlEmitter};
let docs = Yaml::load_from_str("[1, 2, 3]").unwrap();
let doc = &docs[0]; // select the first YAML document
assert_eq!(doc[0].as_i64().unwrap(), 1); // access elements by index
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
```
---
[`saphyr-parser`](https://docs.rs/saphyr-parser/latest/saphyr_parser/) is the
parser behind `saphyr`. It provides direct access to the parsing process by
emitting [YAML
events](https://docs.rs/saphyr-parser/latest/saphyr_parser/parser/enum.Event.html).
It does not include YAML to object mapping, but is a lightweight alternative to
`saphyr` for those interested in building directly atop the parser, without
having an intermediate conversion to a Rust object. More details on where to
start are available [on
doc.rs](https://docs.rs/saphyr-parser/latest/saphyr_parser/parser/trait.EventReceiver.html).
```rs
/// Sink of events. Collects them into an array.
struct EventSink {
events: Vec<Event>,
}
/// Implement `on_event`, pushing into `self.events`.
impl EventReceiver for EventSink {
fn on_event(&mut self, ev: Event) {
self.events.push(ev);
}
}
/// Load events from a yaml string.
fn str_to_events(yaml: &str) -> Vec<Event> {
let mut sink = EventSink { events: Vec::new() };
let mut parser = Parser::new_from_str(yaml);
// Load events using our sink as the receiver.
parser.load(&mut sink, true).unwrap();
sink.events
}
```
## Specification Compliance
This implementation is fully compatible with the YAML 1.2 specification.
`saphyr-parser`) tests against (and passes) the [YAML test
suite](https://github.com/yaml/yaml-test-suite/).
## License
Sets of licences are available for each of the crates. Due to this project
being based on a fork of [chyh1990's
`yaml-rust`](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust), there are 2 licenses to be
included if using `saphyr` or `saphyr-parser`. Refer to the projects' READMEs
for details.
