Hi,

It would be helpful if you can write the installation instructions

See above screenshot. Line 5 contains a string in double quotes. The string uses a : character.

Syntax highlighting is broken as you can see on lines 7 and 8, up until the next " character.

Replacing the double quotes in line 5 with single quotes has the same effect.

In this YAML document, #baz: quux is a comment, but vim-yaml highlights it as yamlKey:

# this is a comment
foo: bar
#baz: quux

1：find the dir for 'after/syntax' by rpm command
exp. rpm -ql vim-filesystem-7.4.629-5.el6.x86_64 | grep 'after/syntax'
2：download the yaml.vim to the dir

hi @stephpy thanks for this project, and will you add indent file for yaml ?

Hi & thanks for your plugin!

I'm no vim expert and want to use vim's native packages (instead of a proprietary package manager) on a Mac.

As far as I know, it should be sufficient to clone your directory to somewhere beneath ~/.vim/pack/:

git clone https://github.com/stephpy/vim-yaml.git… ~/.vim/pack/syntax/start/vim-yaml

But I don't see syntax highlighting when I open a .yml file.

The command :set runtimepath? shows:

  runtimepath=~/.vim,~/.vim/pack/syntax/start/vim-yaml,/usr/share/vim/vimfiles,/usr/share/vim/vim81,~/.vim/pack/syn
tax/start/vim-yaml/after,/usr/share/vim/vimfiles/after,~/.vim/after

Am I missing something?

If I know how it works I could contribute an install hint to your README.

Many thanks 🙇‍♂️

Current syntax rules do not identify keys with spaces, resulting in incorrect highlighting.

foo: bar
foo bar:
  - foo: bar
  - foo bar: baz

Hello, I noticed that multiple single quotes on the same line break syntax highlight:

How can I solve this?

Thanks.

The title + screen says all. It is valid YAML file:

Example:

list:
  - >- # comment
    text

text will not be highlighted as a string.

I tried modifying the start regex for the three yamlString regions to allow for inline comments like above. This fixes the highlighting of text but the inline comment is not highlighted as such; comment will get highlighted as the text` string.

When editing a travis.yml vim lags tremendously. The more encrypted vars I add, the slower it gets. After running : syntax off everything's fine again. Config that I'm using: init.vim (vim-yaml is loaded through vim-polyglot)

Hi,

we have some problem in making your syntax for YAML work with the Dracula vim theme: dracula/vim#163
@dsifford , @benknoble

After some research, we believe the problem lays in line 20 of your syntax file:

Ps. This also affects sheerun/vim-polyglot @sheerun
