quickstart

from snam import loads

yamldoc = '''
foo:
  enabled: true
  title: BAR
  rate: .73
  user: !env USER
  greeting: !shell echo Hello

fruites:
  - cherry
  - melon
  - banana
  - pineapple
'''

obj = loads(ymldoc)
assert obj.foo.enabled
assert obj.title == 'BAR'
assert obj.rate == 0.73
assert obj.fruites == ['cherry', 'melon', 'banana', 'pineapple']

Tutorial

Parsing

You may user loads(str) function to parse YAML string, and load(file) to parse file-like object or filename. these functions return a snam.Meld object. The Meld object is subclass of the Python's dictionary but in addtion you can access the members by getattr, setattr and delattr operations.

meld = loads('foo: bar')
assert meld.foo == 'bar'

meld = load('foo.yml')

with open('foo.yml') as file:
  meld = load(file)

Merging/Melting

Using the |= operator you may merge any other dictionary or YAML-string into a Meld.

meld |= '''
  foo: bar
  baz: 23
'''

And also using the <<= you may load a file-like object or a filename into a Meld object.

meld <<= 'foo.yml'

with open('foo.yml') as file:
  meld <<= file

Dump

Use snam.dumps(obj) -> str, snam.dump(obj, file) and also meld >>= filename.

dumps(meld, indent=6, indentsize=2)
dump(meld, 'foo.yml', indent=6, indentsize=2)

with open('foo.yml', 'w') as file:
  dump(meld, file, indent=6, indentsize=2)

meld >>= 'foo.yml'

with open('foo.yml', 'w') as file:
  meld >>= file
