Create or check file/directory trees described by YAML

Create or check file/directory trees described by YAML

This Pytest plugin was generated with Cookiecutter along with @hackebrot’s Cookiecutter-pytest-plugin template.

Features

• Monkey-patches py.path.local class (the one behind tmpdir fixture) to append yaml_create and yaml_check methods for easy access.

• Use it like this:

  def test_foo(tmpdir):
      tmpdir.yaml_create("""
          directory_one:
              file1: Hello World
              file2: "Including\nLine\nBreaks\n"
              subdir:
                  file3: |
                      Some raw content here.
                      It is probably better readable.
          directory_two:
              arrow.gif: !!binary |

                  AgjoEwnuNAFOhpEMTRiggcz4BNJHrv/zCFcLiwMWYNG84BwwEeECcgggoBADs=
      """)
  
      # now these files are created under tmpdir
      assert tmpdir.join('directory_one', 'file1').read() == 'Hello World'
  
      # also can check that directory structure corresponds to the declaration
      tmpdir.yaml_check("""
          directory_one:
              file1: Content
          directory_two: {}  # empty mapping means empty directory
      """)
