tap-yaml

Yaml handling for TAP parsers and generators

USAGE

const yaml = require('tap-yaml')

const str = yaml.stringify(someObject)
const obj = yaml.parse(someString)

This is essentially a re-export of the yaml package, with a few modifications to be more suitable for use in tap.

1. Symbol and Function types are added, so that they don't throw. Functions aren't parsed to actual functions, though, since that's horribly unsafe, but they do parse to an empty function with a toString() that contains the original string source.
2. An Error type is added.
3. Binary types are implicitly allowed in a standard way.
4. omap and set are configured to refer to Map and Set objects.

Status

This is not yet ready for prime time. Work is underway to port node-tap projects to use it, which will take a bit of time, and probably flush out a lot of bugs and issues along the way.
