# NimYAML - YAML implementation for Nim
NimYAML is currently being developed. The current release 0.3.0 is not
considered stable. See [the documentation](http://flyx.github.io/NimYAML/) for
an overview of already available features.
## TODO list
* Misc:
- Add type hints for more scalar types
* Serialization:
- Support for more standard library types
- Support polymorphism
- Support variant objects
- Support generic objects
- Support transient fields (i.e. fields that will not be (de-)serialized on
objects and tuples)
- Check for and avoid name clashes when generating local tags for custom
object types.
## Developers
```bash
nim tests # runs unit tests (serialization, dom, json)
# for parser tests, see yamlTestSuite
nim serializationTests # runs serialization tests
nim documentation # builds documentation to folder docout
nim server # builds the REST server used for the testing ground
nim bench # runs benchmarks, requires libyaml
nim clean # guess
nim build # build a library
nim yamlTestSuite # execute YAML test suite (git-clones yaml-dev-kit)
```
Project is tested against current develop branch of Nim. Older Nim versions
probably do not work.
