Typo in lists example in README

[ImmanuelHaffner]

In the README example on lists, the schema has

question:
  choices: list(include('choices'))
  questions: list(include('question'), required=False)

and the example data has

questions:
  - choices:
      - id: 'id_str'
      - id: 'id_str1'
    questions:
      - choices:
        - id: 'id_str'
        - id: 'id_str1'

I'm not very familiar with YAML syntax, but i think there is a typo (singular vs plural). Either question: in the schema should be questions: or the outer questions: in the data should be question:.

Hi, thanks for your interest in Yamale.

Here's the full data file we want to validate:

list_with_two_types:
  - 'some'
  - rsid: 'rs123'
    name: 'some SNP'
  - 'thing'
  - rsid: 'rs312'
    name: 'another SNP'
questions:
  - choices:
      - id: 'id_str'
      - id: 'id_str1'
    questions:
      - choices:
        - id: 'id_str'
        - id: 'id_str1'

Let's take a look at the referenced schema in parts. At the top, we have:

list_with_two_types: list(str(), include('variant'))
questions: list(include('question'))

The list_with_two_types and questions match the two top level attributes in the data. Great! We see that the attribute questions is a list of question type. I think that's where the confusion is. The questions attribute has a type of question.

Just to continue, we look later in the schema for that type:

question:
  choices: list(include('choices'))
  questions: list(include('question'), required=False)

Here we see that each element in the list is a map made up of choices and questions. Looking at the data, that's exactly what we have.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Oh cool, thanks for the fast response. Makes perfectly sense now.

And great tool, keep up the good work 😁
