YAML format #2

Closed slavus closed 12 years ago

slavus commented 13 years ago

Please add support for YAML as configuration Format.

paradigmatic commented 13 years ago

I will be happy to add YAML format. Just a few questions to understand more precisely what you are looking for:

  1. Do you need YAML as input format (a YAML file can be loaded in a Configuration), output format (Configuration can be saved as YAML), or both ?
  2. Which YAML 1.1 features you think are essential ? Scalar and collections can be implemented easily but anchors, tags, etc. will require either more work.

The less features you ask, the soonest I may do the job ;-)

  1. reading from YAML is a must(input) , writing to it(output) would be nice.
  2. I think Scalar and collections are enough.

I have enough time to work on the YAML format for Configrity and I hope to finish it before Christmas. I will use SnakeYAML for the actual YAML parsing.

As I want Configrity to remain without external dependencies, I chose a modular architecture. You can have a look at the work in progress, in branch modular. The YAML plugin is in the modules/yaml directory. Of course, you can contribute...

It looks good. I like modular design, it is good that you don't introduce external dependencies if you don't want to use yaml. Thanx

I commited the YAML module to the v0.10.0. See: https://github.com/paradigmatic/Configrity/wiki/YAML for usage.
