Functions

func DecodeField

func DecodeField(node *yaml.Node, path string, out any) error

DecodeField retrieves the value at the specified path in the YAML document and decodes it into the provided value. The path is specified using a dot-separated string, similar to the UpdateField function.

func SetStringsInBytes

func SetStringsInBytes(
	inBytes []byte,
	changes map[string]string,
) ([]byte, error)

SetStringsInBytes returns a copy of the provided bytes with the changes specified by the changes map applied. The changes map maps keys to new values. Keys are of the form <key 0>.<key 1>...<key n>. Integers may be used as keys in cases where a specific node needs to be selected from a sequence. Individual changes are ignored without error if their key is not found or if their key is found not to address a scalar node. Importantly, all comments and style choices in the input bytes are preserved in the output.

func SetStringsInFile

func SetStringsInFile(file string, changes map[string]string) error

SetStringsInFile overwrites the specified file with the changes specified by the changes map applied. The changes map maps keys to new values. Keys are of the form <key 0>.<key 1>...<key n>. Integers may be used as keys in cases where a specific node needs to be selected from a sequence. Individual changes are ignored without error if their key is not found or if their key is found not to address a scalar node. Importantly, all comments and style choices in the input bytes are preserved in the output.

func UpdateField

func UpdateField(node *yaml.Node, key string, value any) error

UpdateField updates the value of a field in a YAML document. The field is specified using a dot-separated path. If the field does not exist, it is created. The YAML node is modified in place, preserving comments and style.

The value parameter can be any Go value that can be marshaled to YAML using the yaml package. This includes basic types (string, int, bool, etc.), maps, slices, and structs.

Types

type FieldNotFoundErr

type FieldNotFoundErr struct {
	// contains filtered or unexported fields
}

FieldNotFoundErr is an error type that is returned when a field is not found in the YAML document.

func (FieldNotFoundErr) Error

func (e FieldNotFoundErr) Error() string

Error implements the error interface.
