<dd><p>Dumps YAML documents to files or streams.
</p>
<p>User specified Representer and/or Resolver can be used to support new
tags / data types.
<br>
Setters are provided to affect output details (style, encoding, etc.).
</p>
2014-08-01 01:00:40 +00:00
<b>Examples:</b><div class="pbr"> Write to a file:
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<pre class="d_code"><span class="d_keyword">auto</span> node = Node([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
<span class="d_psymbol">Dumper</span>(<span class="d_string">"file.yaml"</span>).dump(node);
</pre>
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<br>
Write multiple YAML documents to a file:
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<pre class="d_code"><span class="d_keyword">auto</span> node1 = Node([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
<span class="d_keyword">auto</span> node2 = Node(<span class="d_string">"This document contains only one string"</span>);
<span class="d_psymbol">Dumper</span>(<span class="d_string">"file.yaml"</span>).dump(node1, node2);
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<span class="d_comment">//Or with an array:
</span><span class="d_comment">//Dumper("file.yaml").dump([node1, node2]);
</span>
</pre>
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<br>
Write to memory:
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<pre class="d_code"><span class="d_keyword">import</span> std.stream;
<span class="d_keyword">auto</span> stream = <span class="d_keyword">new</span> MemoryStream();
<span class="d_keyword">auto</span> node = Node([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
<span class="d_psymbol">Dumper</span>(stream).dump(node);
</pre>
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<br>
Use a custom representer/resolver to support custom data types and/or implicit tags:
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<pre class="d_code"><span class="d_keyword">auto</span> node = Node([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
<span class="d_keyword">auto</span> representer = <span class="d_keyword">new</span> Representer();
<span class="d_keyword">auto</span> resolver = <span class="d_keyword">new</span> Resolver();
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<span class="d_comment">//Add representer functions / resolver expressions here...

2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<span class="d_keyword">auto</span> dumper = <span class="d_psymbol">Dumper</span>(<span class="d_string">"file.yaml"</span>);

</dt>
<dd><p>Specify tag directives.
</p>
<p>A tag directive specifies a shorthand notation for specifying tags.
Each tag directive associates a handle with a prefix. This allows for
compact tag notation.
<br>
Each handle specified MUST start and end with a '!' character
(a single character "!" handle is allowed as well).
<br>
Only alphanumeric characters, '-', and '_' may be used in handles.
<br>
Each prefix MUST not be empty.
<br>
The "!!" handle is used for default YAML tags with prefix
"tag:yaml.org,2002:". This can be overridden.
</p>
<b>Parameters:</b><div class="pbr"><table class=parms><tr><td valign=top>string[string] <b>tags</b></td>
<td valign=top>Tag directives (keys are handles, values are prefixes).</td></tr>
</table></div>
<p><b>Example:</b><br>
2013-12-17 14:19:01 +00:00
<pre class="d_code">Dumper dumper = Dumper(<span class="d_string">"file.yaml"</span>);
string[string] directives;
directives[<span class="d_string">"!short!"</span>] = <span class="d_string">"tag:long.org,2011:"</span>;
<span class="d_comment">//This will emit tags starting with "tag:long.org,2011"
</span><span class="d_comment">//with a "!short!" prefix instead.

<dt class="d_decl"><a name="Dumper.dump"></a>@trusted void <a name="dump"></a><span class="ddoc_psymbol">dump</span>(Node[] <b>documents</b>...);

<dd><p>Dump one or more YAML documents to the file/stream.
</p>
<p>Note that while you can call <a name="dump"></a><span class="ddoc_psymbol">dump</span>() multiple times on the same
dumper, you will end up writing multiple YAML "files" to the same
file/stream.
</p>
<b>Parameters:</b><div class="pbr"><table class=parms><tr><td valign=top>Node[] <b>documents</b></td>
<td valign=top>Documents to dump (root nodes of the documents).</td></tr>
</table></div>
<b>Throws:</b><div class="pbr">YAMLException on error (e.g. invalid nodes,
unable to write to file/stream).</div>
