YAML Tools

A set of utility methods to help with parsing and transforming YAML using go-yaml/yaml.

Install

go get -u github.com/jcwillox/go-yamltools

  "gopkg.in/yaml.v3"

	// becomes
	//   - key1: val1
	//   - key2: val2
	n = yamltools.MapToSliceMap(n)
	// ensure the node is a list, i.e. if it was a string

YAML Tag Handlers

This project adds support for YAML tags such as the !include tag to load in a YAML fragment. It also support the definition of custom tags.

Include Tag

import (
  "gopkg.in/yaml.v3"
  "github.com/jcwillox/go-yamltools"
)

type Config struct {
	...
}

func (c *Config) UnmarshalYAML(n *yaml.Node) error {
	// will recursively load in any `!include` tags replacing the
	// node with the loaded fragment
	err := yamltools.LoadIncludeTag(n)
	if err != nil {
		return err
	}
	// support the `!include_dir_named` tag, which will load in all
	// files in a directory into a map of each filename to the fragment
	err = yamltools.LoadIncludeDirNamedTag(n)
	if err != nil {
		return err
	}
	// this type alias is unfortunately necessary otherwise when
	// we call `n.Decode` it will call `UnmarshalYAML` again
	type ConfigT Config
	return n.Decode((*ConfigT)(c))
}

Custom Tags

Custom tags can be defined using the HandleCustomTag function, and use the LoadFileFragment function which reads in, parses the file and returns a YAML node.

See the LoadIncludeDirNamedTag function definition for a more advanced example.

func LoadIncludeTag(n *yaml.Node) error {
	return HandleCustomTag(n, "!include", func(n *yaml.Node) error {
		fragment, err := LoadFileFragment(n.Value)
		if err != nil {
			return err
		}
		*n = *fragment
		return nil
	})
}
