class YAML::PullParser

Overview

A pull parser allows parsing a YAML document by events.

When creating an instance, the parser is positioned in the first event. To get the event kind invoke #kind. If the event is a scalar you can invoke #value to get its string value. Other methods like #tag, #anchor and #scalar_style let you inspect other information from events.

Invoking #read_next reads the next event.

[View source]
def read_sequence_end #

Reads a "sequence end" event.


[View source]
def read_sequence_start #

[View source]
def read_stream_start #

Reads a "stream start" event.


[View source]
def scalar_style : ScalarStyle #

Returns the scalar style, assuming the pull parser is located at a scalar event. Raises otherwise.


[View source]

[View source]
def tag : String | Nil #
