<h1 class="title">D:YAML 0.5</h1>
<p><strong>Note</strong>: D:YAML 0.5 brings some <strong>breaking changes</strong>. See the
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/kiith-sa/D-YAML/blob/master/CHANGES.rst">changelog</a>.</p>
<div class="section" id="introduction">
<h1>Introduction</h1>
<p>D:YAML is an open source YAML parser and emitter library for the D programming
language. It is
(<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/kiith-sa/D-YAML/wiki/Differences-between-D:YAML-and-the-YAML-specification">almost</a>)
compliant to the YAML 1.1 specification. D:YAML is based on
<a class="reference external" href="http://www.pyyaml.org">PyYAML</a> created by Kirill Simonov.</p>
<p>D:YAML is designed to be easy to use while supporting the full feature set of
YAML. To start using it in your project, see the
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/kiith-sa/D-YAML/wiki/Getting-Started">Getting Started</a>
tutorial and the <a class="reference external" href="http://defenestrate.eu/docs/dyaml/">documentation</a>.</p>
<p>D:YAML is still a work in progress. Its API is not stable and there might be
compatibility breaking changes.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="features">
<h1>Features</h1>
<ul class="simple">
<li>Easy to use, high level API and detailed debugging messages.</li>
<li>Detailed API documentation and tutorials.</li>
<li>Code examples.</li>
<li>Supports all YAML 1.1 constructs. All examples from the YAML 1.1 specification
are parsed correctly.</li>
<li>Reads from and writes from/to YAML files or in-memory buffers.</li>
<li>UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings are supported, both big and little endian
(plain ASCII also works as it is a subset of UTF-8).</li>
<li>Support for both block (Python-like, based on indentation) and flow
(JSON-like, based on bracing) constructs.</li>
<li>Support for YAML anchors and aliases.</li>
<li>Support for default values in mappings.</li>
<li>Support for custom tags (data types), and implicit tag resolution for custom
scalar tags.</li>
<li>All tags (data types) described at <a class="reference external" href="http://yaml.org/type/">http://yaml.org/type/</a> are supported, with
the exception of <tt class="docutils literal">tag:yaml.org,2002:yaml</tt>, which is used to represent YAML
code in YAML.</li>
<li>Remembers YAML style information between loading and dumping if possible.</li>
<li>Reuses input memory and uses slices to minimize memory allocations.</li>
<li>There is no support for recursive data structures.
There are no plans to implement this at the moment.</li>
</ul>
