Problems with multi-line strings about go-gypsy HOT 3 CLOSED

I created a version of gypsy that uses goyaml (the pure go version) for parsing:

https://github.com/moraes/yaml

It parses and renders multi-line strings correctly.

from go-gypsy.

Here is an example that illustrates broken nested multi-line scalars

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/kylelemons/go-gypsy/yaml"
)

var x = `
a:
  b: |
    multi
    line
  c: |
    another
    string
`

func main() {
    c := yaml.Config(x)
    fmt.Println(c.Require("a.b"))
    fmt.Println(c.Require("a.c"))
}

It will result in a panic

panic: yaml: a.c: "a.c" not found

Everything after the first scalar is not parsed

from go-gypsy.

I would actually be surprised if multi-line strings worked at all; they're not implemented, and are the subject of the BUG in the godoc :).

At this point I think there are probably better Go solutions for when you need more than the simple subset of yaml that gypsy supports. Pull requests welcome, though, if you can figure out how to add it... Closing for now, though.
