# # YAML Ain't Markup Language # # This module provides a Ruby interface for data serialization in YAML format. # # The YAML module is an alias of Psych, the YAML engine for Ruby. # # ## Usage # # Working with YAML can be very simple, for example: # # require 'yaml' # # Parse a YAML string # YAML.load("--- foo") #=> "foo" # # # Emit some YAML # YAML.dump("foo") # => "--- foo\n...\n" # { :a => 'b'}.to_yaml # => "---\n:a: b\n" # # As the implementation is provided by the Psych library, detailed documentation # can be found in that library's docs (also part of standard library). # # ## Security # # Do not use YAML to load untrusted data. Doing so is unsafe and could allow # malicious input to execute arbitrary code inside your application. Please see # doc/security.rdoc for more information. # # ## History # # Syck was the original YAML implementation in Ruby's standard library developed # by why the lucky stiff. # # You can still use Syck, if you prefer, for parsing and emitting YAML, but you # must install the 'syck' gem now in order to use it. # # In older Ruby versions, ie. <= 1.9, Syck is still provided, however it was # completely removed with the release of Ruby 2.0.0. # # ## More info # # For more advanced details on the implementation see Psych, and also check out # http://yaml.org for spec details and other helpful information. # # Psych is maintained by Aaron Patterson on github: # https://github.com/ruby/psych # # Syck can also be found on github: https://github.com/ruby/syck # module YAML # # YAML + DBM = YDBM # # YAML::DBM provides the same interface as ::DBM. # # However, while DBM only allows strings for both keys and values, this library # allows one to use most Ruby objects for values by first converting them to # YAML. Keys must be strings. # # Conversion to and from YAML is performed automatically. # # See the documentation for ::DBM and ::YAML for more information. # class DBM < ::DBM VERSION: ::String # # Return value associated with `key` from database. # # Returns `nil` if there is no such `key`. # # See #fetch for more information. # def []: (String key) -> untyped # # Set `key` to `value` in database. # # `value` will be converted to YAML before storage. # # See #store for more information. # def []=: (String key, untyped val) -> untyped # # Return value associated with `key`. # # If there is no value for `key` and no block is given, returns `ifnone`. # # Otherwise, calls block passing in the given `key`. # # See ::DBM#fetch for more information. # def fetch: (String keystr, ?untyped? ifnone) { (untyped) -> untyped } -> untyped # # Deprecated, used YAML::DBM#key instead. # --- # Note: YAML::DBM#index makes warning from internal of ::DBM#index.
