# NimYAML - YAML implementation in Nim # (c) Copyright 2016 Felix Krause # # See the file "copying.txt", included in this # distribution, for details about the copyright. ## ================== ## Module yaml.taglib ## ================== ## ## The taglib API enables you to query real names of tags emitted by the parser ## and create own tags. It also enables you to define tags for types used with ## the serialization API. import tables, macros, hashes, strutils type TagId* = distinct int ## \ ## A ``TagId`` identifies a tag URI, like for example ## ``"tag:yaml.org,2002:str"``. The URI corresponding to a ``TagId`` can ## be queried from the `TagLibrary <#TagLibrary>`_ which was ## used to create this ``TagId``; e.g. when you parse a YAML character ## stream, the ``TagLibrary`` of the parser is the one which generates ## the resulting ``TagId`` s. ## ## URI strings are mapped to ``TagId`` s for efficiency reasons (you ## do not need to compare strings every time) and to be able to ## discover unknown tag URIs early in the parsing process. TagLibrary* = ref object ## A ``TagLibrary`` maps tag URIs to ``TagId`` s. ## ## When `YamlParser <#YamlParser>`_ encounters tags not existing in the ## tag library, it will use ## `registerUri <#registerUri,TagLibrary,string>`_ to add ## the tag to the library. ## ## You can base your tag library on common tag libraries by initializing ## them with `initFailsafeTagLibrary <#initFailsafeTagLibrary>`_, ## `initCoreTagLibrary <#initCoreTagLibrary>`_ or ## `initExtendedTagLibrary <#initExtendedTagLibrary>`_. tags*: Table[string, TagId] nextCustomTagId*: TagId tagHandles: Table[string, string] const # failsafe schema yTagExclamationMark*: TagId = 0.TagId ## ``!`` non-specific tag yTagQuestionMark* : TagId = 1.TagId ## ``?`` non-specific tag yTagString* : TagId = 2.TagId ## \ ## `!!str `_ tag yTagSequence* : TagId = 3.TagId ## \ ## `!!seq `_ tag yTagMapping* : TagId = 4.TagId ## \ ## `!!map `_ tag # json & core schema yTagNull* : TagId = 5.TagId ## \ ## `!!null `_ tag yTagBoolean* : TagId = 6.TagId ## \ ## `!!bool `_ tag yTagInteger* : TagId = 7.TagId ## \ ## `!!int `_ tag yTagFloat* : TagId = 8.TagId ## \ ## `!!float `_ tag # other language-independent YAML types (from http://yaml.org/type/ ) yTagOrderedMap* : TagId = 9.TagId ## \ ## `!!omap `_ tag yTagPairs* : TagId = 10.TagId ## \ ## `!!pairs `_ tag yTagSet* : TagId = 11.TagId ## \ ## `!!set `_ tag yTagBinary* : TagId = 12.TagId ## \ ## `!!binary `_ tag yTagMerge* : TagId = 13.TagId ## \ ## `!!merge `_ tag yTagTimestamp* : TagId = 14.TagId ## \ ## `!!timestamp `_ tag yTagValue* : TagId = 15.TagId ## \ ## `!!value `_ tag yTagYaml* : TagId = 16.TagId ## \ ## `!!yaml `_ tag yTagNimField* : TagId = 100.TagId ## \ ## This tag is used in serialization for the name of a field of an ## object.
