NAME

YAML::LibYAML - LibYAML bindings for Perl

SYNOPSIS

use YAML::LibYAML;

my $yaml = Dump [ 1..4 ];
my $array = Load $yaml;

DESCRIPTION

Kirill Siminov's libyaml is arguably the best YAML implementation. The C library is written precisely to the YAML 1.1 specification. It was originally bound to Python and was later bound to Ruby.

This module is a Perl XS binding to libyaml which will (eventually) offer Perl the best YAML support to date.

This module exports the functions Dump and Load. These functions are intended to work exactly like YAML.pm's corresponding functions.

NOTE: This very early proof-of-concept release only works for unblessed hashes, arrays, and scalars, without reference aliases. Also works properly for undef values.

On the other hand, this module supports the full YAML syntax for these data types. There are no known bugs yet.

This work should progress quickly so check back often.
