NimYAML - YAML implementation for Nim

NimYAML is currently being developed. The current release 0.2.0 is not considered stable. See the documentation 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 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.
    • Possibly use genSym for predefined and generated yamlTag procs because they are an implementation detail and should not be visible to the caller. same goes for lazyLoadTag and safeLoadUri.

Developers

nim tests # runs all tests
nim parserTests # runs parser tests
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

Project is tested against current develop branch of Nim. Older Nim versions probably do not work.
